hello, i'm new in linux and aMule, so please be patient .....

i downloaded aMule-2.0.3, placed in aMule-2.0.3 folder and ran:

./configure --prefix=/home3/licfis05/maioa/aMule

and then:

make

both configure and make finished ok, but the /home3/licfis05/maioa/aMule folder is empty.

did i miss any other installation step ? where am i supposed to look for aMule launcher ?

ahh, i am not root ! is that an obstacle ?


thank you ! and sorry for my terrible english............

do "!make installl" in the end

this will instal teh app or you do inside the amule-source folder

cd src

adn type

./amule

this will lunch amule from inside teh folder, instead of installing it.

btw: you can also emerge amule put use ~x86 so you get teh current version

endeed. but now, when i run

/aMule-2.0.3/src/amule

i get this error:

FATAL ERROR! You have attempted to use a version of wxGTK older than
the 2.5.1 release, compiled against GTK2! This combination is not
supported by aMule due to many known problems. If you wish to use
wxGTK compiled against GTK2, please upgrade to a more recent version
of wxGTK.

More information can be found at:
 - http://www.amule.org
 - http://wiki.amule.org

Current version is: aMule 2.0.3 using wxGTK2 v2.4.2 (Unicoded)

i tried running again (in aMule-2.0.3 folder):

./configure --disable-gtk2 --with-gtk && make

to compile against gtk instead of gtk2, but the FATAL ERROR remains appearing.

what do you recommend me to do?

thanks !!

Compile your wxgtk with the 2.6-Release. This should solve your problem.

amule doesn't / can't decide whether to use GTK1 or GTK2, it uses whatever wxGTK was build with. And this configure command is definitely meant for wxGTK, not for amule.

P.S.:
Stefanero, you should definitely work on your timing when hitting the keys, I get the feeling that these typos of yours get worse and worse

i solve my problem this way:

i placed on the folder that conteined the folders ./wxGTK-2.6.1 and ./aMule-2.0.3 and wrote (each $ means a new command):

$ cd wxGTK-2.6.1
$ ./configure  --prefix=/usr --disable-gtk2 --enable-timedate --enable-gui --enable-protocol --enable-http --enable-ftp --disable-resources --disable-prologio --disable-debug --disable-final --enable-timer --disable-profile --with-gtk
$ make
$ cd ../aMule-2.0.3
$ ./configure -with-wx-config=../wxGTK-2.6.1/wx-config
$ make

finally:

$ cd src/
$ ./aMule &

and aMule magically appears...........

what i was quering the first time was:
$ ./configure -with-wx-config=../wxGTK-2.6.1/wx-config

thanks to the ones who tried to help me and good luck to the ones who read this thread !!

bye.
