| Hello all. I downloaded the DBSC 2.5.2 codebase, in an attempt to play around and maybe learn a bit of coding and mainly building. I run a windows vista system, so I'm using cygwin to do this. There were install instructions, which I followed to the T, except selecting the "Base - Zlib" when installing cygwin (because it wasn't even an option actually). Now, I commented out the line in the makefile it says in order to compile with cygwin and use the MCCP. I type in the make command in cygwin, and I get an error...I searched the forums and never found an actual answer to this and hope to get some help.
here is the error I'm seeing:
cannot find -lz
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [dbs] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/username/src'
make: *** [all] Error 2 | | Top |

| One more note. I decided to attempt to start it anyways, after typing the command "./startup" it says the following:
limit: Command not found.
ulimit: Command not found.
mv: cannot move '../log/syslog.9' to '../log/archived/1000.log': No such file or directory.
Then the last line just keeps repeating over and over again and I can't do anything with cygwin. | | Top |

| So did you not install zlib? You need to.

| | Okay. I went to the website and downloaded the source file, unzipped it. Do I then just copy those files into my cygwin folder and use the make command? Which I have already done, but I still get the same errors as before. | | Top |

| | No, you need to install it. Check the docs. |

Or maybe it is slightly harder. But you should end up with the file libz.a somewhere in the search path for libraries, I think. |
