How to install Membase from source on FreeBSD

Unfortunately we currently don't explicitly support FreeBSD and there are in fact some known issues.

Can you post the full details of the packages you install and the full output of the make command?

I have installed from ports:
libevent
openssl
cyrus-sasl
rubygem-ncurses
git-all
rubygems
sprockets

when i execute "make":

/membase-server-community_1.6.5_src]# make
make: don't know how to make memcached.stamp. Stop

when i execute "gmake":

/membase-server-community_1.6.5_src]# gmake

Yes, it appears that there are errors preventing this from compiling correctly.

I've asked our engineers to take a look at this, but I can't guarantee any time frame of being able to get you a resolution.

Can you also try grabbing the 1.7 source since it seems you're trying to build off of an old version?

Perry

Thanks for your answers , i tried to compile this source - membase-server_src-1.7-rc1.tar.gz but got a error:

Saikou, thanks for your patience. I'm engaging with our engineers to see about resolving this for you.

Perry

Memcached requires a C99 compiler, and from the output it doesn't seems like configure correctly detects your gcc... You need to pass -std=gnu99 (or -std=c99 ) to the compiler. I guess setting CFLAGS=-std=gnu99 before running configure should do the trick.

CHeers,

Trond

now it's:

From your output it looks like something is fundamentaly broken in your setup.. You should look in config.log to see how the compiler was invoked and the error it returned...

I am also interested in this. It seems i am getting further in the build, but here is where i stop:

gmake[2]: Entering directory `/usr/home/graff/membase-server_src/bucket_engine'

app6#

UPDATE: I was able to get this far, and more by doing the following:
Edit the make file in the root to be this:
app6# diff membase-server_src_org/Makefile membase-server_src/Makefile
232c232
< OPTIONS += 'CFLAGS=-I$(LIBS_PREFIX)/include $(CFLAGS)' 'LDFLAGS=-L$(LIBS_PREFIX)/lib $(LDFLAGS)'
---
> OPTIONS += 'CFLAGS=-gcc=47 -std=gnu99 -I$(LIBS_PREFIX)/include $(CFLAGS)' 'LDFLAGS=-L$(LIBS_PREFIX)/lib $(LDFLAGS)'
app6#

Then start your compile:
gmake gcc=47 STD=gnu99

Then edit this:
app6# diff membase-server_src_org/memcached/Makefile membase-server_src/memcached/Makefile
1622c1622
< (cd $(top_srcdir)/libevent && make)
---
> (cd $(top_srcdir)/libevent && gmake)
app6#

Then you fail with the bucket_engine error above, then edit this:
membase-server_src/bucket_engine/Makefile
remove -Werror from the file

start your compile over again, and i think it actually works :)

I lied, here is the newest update:

I removed Werror from /moxi/Makefile but no help after a gmake clean gmake make inside /moxi

Looks like it fails to find libevent...

Trond

Thank you sir! I went into /moxi and did as follows:

./configure --prefix=/usr/home/graff/membase-server_src/install --enable-moxi-libvbucket --enable-moxi-libmemcached --without-check --with-memcached=/usr/home/graff/membase-server_src/install/bin/memcached --with-libevent-prefix=/usr/local/lib/

(basically just added --with-libevent-prefix to the end of what was already there then ran configure by hand)

Configure found libevent: (using libevent-1.4.14b_2)

checking for shared library run path origin... done
checking for libevent... yes
checking how to link with libevent... /usr/local/lib/libevent.so -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib

 

But the output durning gmake is the same :(

Also allow me to +1 my vote that my company is highly interested in membase and we currently run a 90% Freebsd farm, so even if support was enterprise only we would love it!

Thanks again!

Simon, unfortunately FreeBSD isn't officially supported at this time. It clearly seems to involve a bit more work than would be initially expected and our engineers are hard at work on a variety of other critical features, especially for 2.0.

While I'd really like to help, I want to make sure and set the right expectations for you...rather than just ignoring a post.

We've got this in the list to look at, but at this time I can't really guarantee any immediate help.

I hope you're able to use one of the other platforms that we do officially support, or continue plugging away at this towards some success.

Please let me know how else we can be of assistance.

Perry

Totally understandable, and thank you :)

I hope the few hurdles we got past help some people in the future that go down the same path. Good to hear that is it in the list even if its at the bottom.

-Simon

We've made some good progress on our end, can you grab the latest code and try compiling again?

Awesome! I will do so right away and post the results

I am not sure what code you wanted me to test, so i got what i assume would be the latest directly from git.

I'm doing automated builds out of the latest 2.0 branch on FreeBSD 8.2 with success. See http://jenkins.norbye.org/jenkins/job/membase-2.0-freebsd/

You need to tell repo to use the 2.0 branch by checking out the code with the following command:

repo init -u git://github.com/membase/manifest.git -m branch-2.0.xml

Then I added the following to the extra make options:

cat > .repo/Makefile.extra << EOF
OPTIONS += --with-debug
OPTIONS += --enable-64bit
libmemcached_EXTRA_OPTIONS += --without-memcached
EOF

I'm no FreeBSD expert so I don't know how stuff are normally done on FreeBSD, but my goal was to check the build process there. I installed gcc 4.5, and created symbolic links in /usr/local/bin so gcc and g++ are available as gcc and g++ (for simplicity). It seems like gcc installed the runtime libraries in /usr/local/lib/gcc45, so I just reverted to setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include that director to fix my build process ;-) You could probably have added some link flags or something to include that directory in the seach path..

So I exported the following environment variables before running gmake:

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/home/jenkins/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/gcc45/

Lots and lots of progress. Thank you so very much!

i was trying to get away with using the built in
dev0# gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.2.1
dev0# uname -a
FreeBSD dev0.dev.telescope.tv 8.2-RELEASE

but got stuck on
gmake -C libcouchbase install
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/tank/clients/telescope/users/ender/membase_git/libcouchbase'
CC src/libcouchbase_la-arithmetic.lo
src/arithmetic.c: In function 'libcouchbase_arithmetic_by_key':
src/arithmetic.c:68: error: 'struct ' has no member named 'vbucket'
gmake[1]: *** [src/libcouchbase_la-arithmetic.lo] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/tank/clients/telescope/users/ender/membase_git/libcouchbase'
gmake: *** [make-install-libcouchbase] Error 2

No need to make any changes tho, i will do it correctly with gcc 4.5 tomorrow :)

gcc 4.2.1 is too old (2007) and doesn't fully support C99 etc. I don't think it's worth the effort to try to make the source compile with such old compilers when the code is compiling with a more recent version of the compiler.

Do you have an old memcached/protocol_binary.h located in the path searched by your compiler?

Cheers,

I wanted to write back to you Trond and let you know using the latest git and gcc 4.6 i was able to easily compile and run install/membase-server on freebsd.

I cant thank you enough and we are continuing to scale out and test membase :)
