Test fail

[Diego Giraldez]

I've Redhat 7.2 and gcc 3.2.3
I have successfully compiled Ice. But when I run the tests, it fails:

make test

*** running tests in ./test/IceUtil/thread:

starting client... ok
running thread create test... ok
running thread detach test... test failed with exit status 1
make: *** [test] Error 1

How can I know the reason? How can I enable logs?
Thanks in advance.

Change to the test/IceUtil/thread directory and run

$ ./client

Please let us know what you find out.

Also, can you provide the output of 'gcc -v'?

Here are the information you requested (while running ./client I could see a sequence of numbers running on the console)

[ax10077@uxds03 thread]$ ./client
running thread create test... ok
running thread detach test... Aborted
[ax10077@uxds03 thread]$ gcc --version

What does 'gcc -v' report?

On my system (RH 7.1) I get the following:

$ gcc -v

Despite a number of problemas with gcc 3.2.3, I decided to come back to my old stable version of gcc 3.2
Now I'm compiling again, disabled Unicode, and this is the next error a have encountered:

c++ -L../../lib -o ../../bin/icepatchclient Client.o -lIcePatch -lGlacier -lIceSSL -lIce -ldl -lbz2 -lIceUtil -lpthread -luuid -lssl -lcrypto

Any ideas?

I too recently discovered problems with GCC 3.2.3 and have since reverted to 3.2.

I'm afraid I don't have any good ideas. Have you tried building GCC 3.2 from source yourself?

If you do build GCC 3.2 yourself, don't forget to update your PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH accordingly.

[Diego Giraldez]

The function seekg is the unique function that isn't find. So I disabled IcePatch, and the rest of the packages builds and tests successfully.
I'll try to find why this definition is the only error during the building.

Best regards and thanks. Diego.
