Failed Ctest After Building from Source

C SDK
1

Since there are no binaries for Debian 8. I had to compile from source. I installed the necessary dependencies, including libevent.

Running ctest I get the following error

Errors while running CTest

Not sure if this will effect usage since these are unit tests. But I want to know if anyone else has had these issues and what could be the cause.

It sounds like something is hanging. I would be very interested to see the logs (they should be somewhere in the build directory) to determine why they are failing.

Do you have Java installed? The unit-tests depend on a mock server written in Java. perhaps in your case it’s not successfully running?

No I do not have Java installed, didn’t realize it was needed. That is probably the issue. I’ll try and find the logs and see the exact error message.

(of course you can always do make install and it should just work. I can’t see any reason that it won’t work for you, and debian jessie is the environment i use personally for development along with OS X… so you’re probably OK)

Yeah, I did that with no issues. I didn’t have the software installed to properly run the unit test, that’s why I got the error.
