#24574: Xalan-C problems ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: leonhardt.ralph@… | Owner: mww@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: xalanc ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment(by kbecker@…): I encountered the same error. I was able to get it to complete successfully by turning off parallel builds in port file. I am running MacOSX 10.5.8 on a 2.93 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo system. The build command generated is: {{{ :msg:configure ---> Building xalanc :debug:build build phase started at Wed Sep 22 22:37:42 MST 2010 :debug:build Executing org.macports.build (xalanc) :debug:build Environment: CPATH='/opt/local/include' CC_PRINT_OPTIONS_FILE='/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_textproc_xalanc/work/.CC_PRINT_OPTIONS' LIBRARY_PATH='/opt/local/lib' CC_PRINT_OPTIONS='YES' MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET='10.5' XERCESCROOT='/opt/local' XALANCROOT='/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_textproc_xalanc/work /xml-xalan/c' :debug:build Assembled command: 'cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_textproc_xalanc/work /xml-xalan/c" && /usr/bin/gnumake -j2 all' :info:build /usr/bin/gnumake -C src/xalanc all :info:build /usr/bin/gnumake -C Utils locale :info:build Preparing the directory structure for a build ... :info:build mkdir -p ../../obj :info:build mkdir -p ../../lib :info:build /usr/bin/gnumake -C MsgCreator :info:build mkdir -p ../../bin :info:build /usr/bin/gnumake -C Utils prepare }}} Note the '''/usr/bin/gnumake -j2 all''' command. Even with just 2 threads, the build fails. I added '''use_parallel_build no''' in the Portfile and it completed successfully. Also, I had Xalanc compile errors on a shiny new 64-bit Snow Leopard server system with a two 2.66GHz 6-Core Intel (12 cores) system. Turning off parallel builds also fixed this problem. (if I should submit a separate ticket, please advise). It issued a make command with a '''-j18''' argument! Seems Xalanc cannot be built reliably with threads. Which begs the questions, are there other ports with the same problem? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/24574#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
