[AWS] Observations after installing gnat/aws on debian sarge

[David Marceau]

Hi everyone,

I am running debian sarge on an dual athlon mp with one of the current
versions of k7-smp kernel.
uname -a
Linux omac 2.6.3-1-k7-smp #2 SMP Tue Feb 24 20:46:00 EST 2004 i686 GNU/Linux

1)installed via aptitude straight from debian http mirrors:
gnat 3.15p7
libaws-dev 1.4-2
libaws-doc 1.4-2
ada-reference-manual 20021112we
gnat-gdb 5.3.gnat.0
gnat-gps 1.4.0-4
libaws1  1.4-2
libgnat-3.15p-1   3.15p-7
libgtkada2-0    2.2.1-4
libxmlada1    1.0-2

2)gnat seems to run ok.
gnat examples /usr/share/doc/gnat/examples
room.adb
window.adb are not decompressed.  They are still .gz's and when I make,
they didn't compile and run.  I filed a bug report on Debian using their
bugreport tool.
2.2)the diners example compiles but hangs on execution by default but
when using the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 trick, it runs fine:
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 ./diners

3)I had to add these to aws makefile to make it compile ok:
I filed a bug report on the debian site for this.

AWSRES=awsres
WSDL2AWS=wsdl2aws
GNATMAKE=gnatmake

GARGS = \

     -aO. \
     -aO/usr/lib

LARGS := $(LARGS) -lssl3 /usr/lib/kde3/kcm_crypto.so

4)I tried running ./runme and it needed the crypto lib in the runtime path:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib/kde3

5)I tried running the ./runme again but when I run the web browser and
try to connect, it doesn't.
http://localhost:1234/
https://localhost:4433/
Both of these didn't connect by default.  I haven't touched any of the
ssl stuff.

After doing this however it works:
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib/kde3
./runme

Now it works for both:
http://localhost:1234/Admin-Page
https://localhost:4433/

Thanks for listening :)
