Running Antrix on Mac : Help Needed.

[Herzeleid]

1) Install XCode
2) Install SVN
3) Install Fink
4) Run:

sudo fink scanpackages
sudo fink index
sudo fink selfupdate

5) Install WITH Fink the following packages:

sudo fink install mysql mysql-client mysql-dev mysql15-dev libtool

6) Open a console window and type in:

mkdir ascent

7) Checkout a copy of Antrix from svn with this command:

svn co svn://emupedia.com/svn/ascent ~/ascent/

I know that in previous tutorials you were told to uncomment out a few thing s out of "/usr/include/c++/4.0.0/cstdlib" DON NOT TOUCH THIS FILE! Uncommenting them out now breaks the compile for some reason?!?
9) Edit the "reconf" in the ascent folder. Take out ALL of the if statements. It should look something like this afterwards:

rm -f config.cache
echo "- aclocal."
aclocal
echo "- autoconf."
autoconf
echo "- autoheader."
autoheader
echo "- automake."
automake -a -c
exit

10) Run:

chmod +x reconf && ./reconf

11) Edit the "configure" file in the ascent folder, and replace "ac_cv_func_malloc_0_nonnull=no" with "ac_cv_func_malloc_0_nonnull=yes" and do the same for "ac_cv_func_realloc_0_nonnull=no" - replace with "ac_cv_func_realloc_0_nonnull=yes" There are two occurrences of each.
12) Next run:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib /usr/local/lib/mysql

13) Then run:

grep -nR -export-dynamic *

The line number will follow the file name. Any file that shows up needs to be edited to remove that bit of code.
14) Now you will run:

./configure --prefix=/usr/antrix --with-python --enable-cli --enable-ra --target i386

15) Then

make && sudo make install

16) Now

cd /usr/antrix && mkdir etc

then

cp ~/ascent/src/*.conf /usr/antrix/etc

17) Then

cd /usr/antrix/bin && mkdir maps && mkdir dbc

Copy the necessary files to them
1 Use your favorite MySQL tool to import the apdb.sql file (I like phpMyAdmin).
19) Set up your .conf files (there are instructions on this forum for that, or just read the instructions in the files).
20) In /usr/antrix/bin type ./logonserver
21) Create a new terminal window, and navigate back to /usr/antrix/bin, and type ./antrix



I Hope this helps people.

P.S. I am having trouble with it finding the conf files tho :confused:
it just says:

Loading Config Files...
  >> ../etc/logonserver.conf :: 
Could not open ../etc/logonserver.conf.

failed.

BTW this is rev1041 of antrix.

I'm at step six, what console? The terminal? That's what I've been typing in.. so confused.

mkdir is the command for make directory/folder
console is what terminal accesses.
why are you still using antrix? shouldn't you be using ascent?

ascent compile instructs

Configuration
open src/shared/common.h
and comment out the big endian stuff:
/* Define this if you're using a big-endian machine */
/*#ifndef WIN32
#ifdef HAVE_DARWIN
#if BYTE_ORDER == BIG_ENDIAN
#define USING_BIG_ENDIAN 1
#include <machine/byte_order.h>
#define bswap_16(x) NXSwapShort(x)
#define bswap_32(x) NXSwapInt(x)
#define bswap_64(x) NXSwapLongLong(x)
#endif
#endif
#endif
*/

open src/ascent/Makefile.am
replace "-export-dynamic" with "-u __dummy -framework System -framework Foundation"
autoreconf -i -f
./configure --prefix=/folder/where/you/want/to/compiled/version/have
[edit]
Compilation
./make
./make install
