Title: GCC is looping!
Post by: Laukev7 on 13 July 2004, 10:20

I've been waiting for hours for that #$%^&@ ftp server software to compile! Turns out that when I try to install a software from the Ports in FreeBSD, the compiler seems to parse some code, then start over and over again, and it has happened just today!

WTF???

ARRGHH, and that bloody ftp doesn't work! Stupid account doesn't have enough space!    :mad:    Anyway, here it is, I'll fix it later.

Edit: Finally got it to work!

Actually that isn't GCC; it's just the configure script.
I have no idea why it's looping though.

I tried to compile two different apps, and it does the same thing. Weird...

Edit: I find something suspicious about this part:

Code: [Select]

Is it supposed to do that?

I think I found the problem: my date indicates Wednesday January 22nd, 16:33. I have NTP installed, how do I readjust the time automatically?

Exactly what command are you invoking that makes this happen?

sudo make build

It happened since I installed aMule.

But maybe it's because of the wrong date? I checked again, and found errors about the date. One of them is

Code: [Select]

ntpdate -b <timeservers>...

Specify one or more server(s) appropriate to your location from http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/servers.html (http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/servers.html)
