Error when compiling ROOT

ROOT
1

Hi,

I checked out the ROOT source code from the svn trunk and when I try to compile it, I get the following error:
I’m compiling on a macbook 15.6.8, i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.2.1, i686-apple-darwin8-gfortran-4.2 .

Any ideas?

Hi,

Do you still have this problem?

Hi Dave,

Do you still have this problem?

Philippe.

Hi, I get this error while compiling root5.28 on OSX 10.5.8 with make3.81.
Any ideas how to solve this problem?

Hi,

Did you try v5.29/02 or v5.28/00d?

Philippe.

I tried v5.28.00c (recommended production version).
Will try development version 5.29.02 right now.

8

Version 5.29.02 compiled, but ROOT doesn’t start, giving the following error:
dyld: Symbol not found: _pcre_free
Referenced from: /Applications/root5.29.02/lib/libCore.so
Expected in: dynamic lookup

Will try 5.28.00d.

9

v5.28.00d gives the the same error as v5.28.00c :frowning:

10

My real problem is that I created the ROOT files with v5.28, and cannot read them on another machine, which has an older ROOT version (error: “file is not a TStreamerInfo object”).

Is is possible to convert these files somehow to an older version?

Hi,

You should be able to safely ignore this warning message (or upgrade to v5.26/00c)

Philippe.
