Installing Armagetron on Debian

Code: Select all

vps:/home/duke/0.2.8-armagetronad-sty+ct/armagetronad# apt-get install protobuf

[INW]

this also happened to me. taz helped me get by it. Just install it.

apt-get install protobuf

That should work.

[dukevin]

nope, see above "can't find package protobuf"

[INW]

o...derp.

I just found this topic: http://forums3.armagetronad.net/viewtop ... 22&t=19684

this is how I've been installing protobuff on CT's debian servers

Code: Select all

wget http://protobuf.googlecode.com/files/protobuf-2.0.3.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf ./protobuf-2.0.3.tar.bz2
cd protobuf-2.0.3
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

worked just fine for me last night

[dukevin]

Ah, thanks INW that seemed to work. Protobuf seems installed, but make install for armagetron gives a new error

Code: Select all

...
' || echo './'`engine/ePlayer.cpp

Now what

[INW]

It looks like your "memory has been exhausted"?

Did you install something that destroyed the storage on your VPS?

[Tank Program]

Looks like your VPS is running out of RAM according to a quick google. This looks like it might be helpful.

[dukevin]

Yeah, I apparently had samba server running without me knowing, thanks everyone!

[dukevin]

For that you will need to install zthreads and ./configure [...] --with-zthread

I installed armagetron without zthread but I deleted everything in /home (left armagetron binaries) and proceed to reinstall arma with ./configure blah --with-zthread but logging in still takes until round end. Do I have to completely remove armagetron from my whole vps before I reconfigure with zthread?

[Jip]

I think 0.3 doesnt support zthread but pthread but i am not sure. Doesnt work for me with trunk either.

[dukevin]

nah I'm using sty+ct

[Jip]

You sure you did that?
./configure <args>
make
make install

Edit: do

Code: Select all

make clean

before

[INW]

I never added the Z-Thread install line in with the ./config. I configured tron and at the very end after everything was done and installed, I did this:

Code: Select all

wget http://voxel.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/zthread/ZThread-2.3.2.tar.gz
tar -xzf ZThread-2.3.2.tar.gz
cd ZThread-2.3.2
./configure CXXFLAGS="-fpermissive" --prefix=/usr/
make && make install

That is all you should have to do.

[dukevin]

I had a make error on the z-treads but I ran it again and it worked.

I also did the make clear so that could have also helped.

Thanks again, you guys rock

I'll probably update the wiki for the greater good.
