amulecmd not doing what I expected
« on: December 24, 2004, 12:01:12 AM »

I've compiled amule from CVS (15-Dec; picked a day.......) and in the aim of using cron to schedule the up/download rate limits I had wanted to be able to use amulecmd.  However every time that I invoke the amulecmd command it brings up the amulecmd DLG, even when it's already running.  Everything works fine and all from that gui; but I was for some reason under the impression that amulecmd was a command-line tool.  If I pass it one of the values it's supposed to be able to set it says something along the lines of "Does not fempute."

So since I'm a mongol and really don't know what's important; I'm running this on a Dell laptop with FreeBSD 5.3 RC2, followed the instructions in the wiki to compile amule and set up the webserver (which works fine by the way, the reason I switched from the port to the CVS) and the ./configure says that I'm using wxWidgets 2.4.2; GTK 2.4.9; and I get the warning about wxWidgets being linked against GTK2.

Thanks for any help in advance.

What configure options did you use?
For wxWidgets 2.4.2, do you have both wxGTK and wxBase installed?

try amulecmd -f -c ""

Btw, your are right, amulecmd is a command-line tool.

for the ./configure I used:

./configure --prefix=/usr/X11R6/bin --with-wx-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wx-config --with-wxbase-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/wx-config --disable-debug --with-curl-config=/usr/local/bin/curl-config --enable-optimize --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --localstatedir=/usr/X11R6/share/gnome --datadir=/usr/X11R6/share/gnome --with-html-dir=/usr/X11R6/share/doc --with-crypto-prefix=/usr/local --with-included-gettext --disable-cas --enable-webserver --enable-amulecmd

(So what's in the Wiki plus the last two options) I also tried it with --disable-amulecmdgui but that changed nothing.

A 'pkg_info' shows that I have wxgtk2 installed; however wxBase isn't listed but I'm not sure that it's not installed.  That may be the culprit?  I'll try to look around here and see what I can find.

The -f switch works nicely however the -c switch isn't recognized.

Koszonom Szepen.  Viszlat.

*Edit:  Okay.  Just went and installed rc8 cuz I really haven't anything better to do....... no fix.  I checked it out and during the configure stage it says something like "Checking if wx base => 2.4.2   -  Yes (2.4.2)"  So I guess that means I have wxBase installed.  I even tried the config with --disable-gtk but that didn't really change anything.

amulecmd still has the same behavior with rc8.  Whatever.  I just though it would be cool to set up bandwidth scheduling since I'm leaving for like three weeks for vacation.   And my place here has a stupid BW limit; which if you exceed you're disconnected.  And there's a free time...................  grrrrrr.  Okay thanks to all.

wx-config != wxbase-config ;)

maybe you should better compile wxGTK & wxBase (2.4.2) yourself..
or only wxGTK 2.5.3, then you don't need wxbase

cheers
