FreeBSD install fails with Error code 1

[jbruyet]

I'm doing it from the autoconf ports directory:

Code: Select all

root@FreeNag:/usr/home/jobee # cd /usr/ports/devel/autoconf
root@FreeNag:/usr/ports/devel/autoconf # ./configure
./configure: Command not found.
root@FreeNag:/usr/ports/devel/autoconf # 

Thanks,

OK, so you are attempting a reinstall of autoconf. can you list that directory? Does it maybe have just a ./config not ./configure?

[jbruyet]

Nope, nothing there even close:

Code: Select all

root@FreeNag:/usr/ports/devel/autoconf # ls -l
total 24
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1576 Sep 23 15:06 Makefile
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   135 Jul 14  2012 distinfo
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel   512 Dec 10 14:49 files
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   456 Jul 14  2012 pkg-descr
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  3236 Sep 23 15:06 pkg-plist
drwxr-xr-x  4 root  wheel   512 Dec 11 02:27 work
root@FreeNag:/usr/ports/devel/autoconf # 

Also, the only two things in the files folder are two patch files.

Thanks,

OK, I guess we're confused at this point, didn't the which autoconf indicate that it was already installed? If so ./configure should be run in the directory containing the nagios source. If you are trying to reinstall autoconf, I hate to push you away, but I would suggest looking up how to build that for freebsd as it is out of the scope of our support.
