The XS/C++ code failed to compile

[megalomaniac]

I'm using ubuntu 13.10 64bit was a fresh install.

followed the instructions on https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r/wiki/Running-Slic3r-from-git-on-GNU-Linux
Didn't work I thought it was a perl problem so I then installed perlbrew perl-5.16.0

After installing perlberw lots of things failed after trying sudo perl Build.PL --gui

Then I Tried perl Build.PL everything tested ok except 'The XS/C++ code failed to compile'
Then I tried with the following --force command and got this:

:~/Slic3r$ sudo perl Build.PL --force

[megalomaniac]

I just restarted my computer and now I get

The crashed program seems to use third-party or local libraries:

/home/megalomaniac/.cpanm/work/1389325632.15343/OpenGL-0.6703/blib/arch/auto/OpenGL/OpenGL.so
/usr/local/lib/perl/5.14.2/auto/Time/HiRes/HiRes.so

It is highly recommended to check if the problem persists without those first.

Think I need help!

[alranel]

Might be fixed now. Can you confirm?

@alexrj I tried to test the latest master, but still the build fails with these errors:

[alranel]

@jonaskuehling, yeah sorry, I fixed that one now.

@megalomaniac, try:

git pull
sudo perl Build.PL

If the Slic3r-XS step fails, please do sudo cpanm -v ./xs and report the output here.

Maybe my perl is broken somehow?

[jonaskuehling]

@alexrj looks good, stable builds an runs without errors so far!

@jonaskuehling, perfect! I can break it again now. :-P

@megalomaniac, try now.

That IS the contents of that file. It just happens to reference itself at the end.

[alranel]

@lerouxb, try manually:

cd xs
sudo perl Build.PL
sudo ./Build install

If it fails, post output here...

I'm on Fedora 22, when I try perl Build.PL --sudo just inside ./Slic3r/ I get the same The XS/C++ code failed to compile, aborting

When I do what alexrj said I get no output whatsoever.

[Tuxomx]

Hi all. I had the same problem, then used strace to check perl compiling xs. Perl was searching for some files, so I installed them and no luck. On a second view of the strace I found perl was using some files from /usr/local/lib64 remaining from fedora 20 (upgraded to 22 today), erasing all of the /usr/local/lib65/perl5/ files allowed me to run "stock" slic3r (the one installed by default) and compile current version (got with git clone https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r.git as stated on README.md).

Ah, CPAN hell. Yeah, the basic compile instructions tend to make your perl
install fragile w/r/t package managers in distros. You really should be
using your package manager (that is, building an rpm from slic3r source
and installing that). A shortcut if someone has already packaged an older
version of slic3r is to grab the source for that package and unpack the new
slic3r source into it (on top of the old package source) and then run the
package build scripts.

@gralco, no output while typing the three commands above? I can't really believe that...

[gralco]

@alexrj
No output.

Also, when I perform sudo perl Build.PL there is no generated "Build" file.

Take a look:

[ekuzmenko@localhost Slic3r]$ cd xs
[ekuzmenko@localhost xs]$ sudo perl Build.PL 
[ekuzmenko@localhost xs]$ sudo ./Build install
sudo: ./Build: command not found
[ekuzmenko@localhost xs]$ sudo ./Build.PL install
sudo: ./Build.PL: command not found
[ekuzmenko@localhost xs]$ sudo chmod 777 ./Build.PL 
[ekuzmenko@localhost xs]$ sudo ./Build.PL install
[ekuzmenko@localhost xs]$ ls
Build.PL  lib  MANIFEST  MANIFEST.SKIP  src  t  xsp

@alexrj I guess the user can't build slic3r with perl 5.16 or higher, recommend use Perl-5.14.4

Those people above used high version perl, such as the first one @megalomaniac with perl-5.16.0, which definitely can't work. And @bmcage used 5.18 I guess ( in this comment there is a line cc -I/usr/lib/perl/5.18/CORE -DXS_VERSION="0.01" -DVERSION="0.01" -fPIC -xc++

Actually the newer version of Linux the new developers are using, the higher the possiblity they will encounter this problem and get upset. Because newer linux distributions ship perl 5.16 or even 5.18.

curl -L http://xrl.us/perlbrewinstall | bash
source ~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc
perlbrew install 5.14.4
perlbrew switch perl-5.14.4
perlbrew install-cpanm
git clone https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r.git
cd Slic3r
CPANM=/home/hustlion/perl5/perlbrew/bin/cpanm perl Build.PL
CPANM=/home/hustlion/perl5/perlbrew/bin/cpanm perl Build.PL --gui
./slic3r.pl

I have updated the wiki page accroding to this. The CPANM path is changed (replace /home/hustlion/ by ~/).

Hope this can be helpful 😄.

[bmcage]

Asking people to use 5.14 via perlbrew with no automatic updates??? That is not a solution.

Sofware should be able to use Ubuntu 14.04 default packages. It has been a long time that I used Slic3r, but I got it running on Ubuntu 14.04 with perl 5.18 from one of the devel branches.

[lerouxb]

I'm on Perl v5.12.5 on OSX Mavericks and having this issue, so I'm not convinced that's the problem.

[HustLion]

@bmcage Oh, I'm just offering a way to run the one on the master branch. Yes I'm thinking Slic3r should be able to run with the default one not just 5.14. Acutally two months ago I cloned Slic3r and can't compile it and finally found out that it's the version that I was using that caused the problem. Actually I found it out from the source code, I can't remember where it is. But the prompt was Running Slic3r under Perl >= 5.16 is not supported nor recommended (found from my notes). If you are still not convinced then I may find the exact line for you 😝 .

@lerouxb So,,, maybe your version is too old?

[HustLion]

@lerouxb By the way, I only tested the method with Ubuntu 14.04. So I don't know if it will work for you on OSX Mavericks. And your case meets the requirement that Perl <5.16, so,,, maybe you can try again and give some feedback about it?

[lerouxb]

I have pulled the latest changes and ran the install again as specified in the wiki:
https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r/wiki/Running-Slic3r-from-git-on-OS-X

(Note that the wiki tells you that 5.16 won't work, so it tells you to set the default to 5.12 which I did, but then the error mentions 5.16 again, so I don't know what's going on there or how to force it to use the right version of perl.)

Here is the result of running it:
https://gist.github.com/lerouxb/bbe62b83e09ff5175779

The attached build.log is the contents of the build.log file.

[HustLion]

@lerouxb That wiki page you mentioned is not updated by me. And this is the one: https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r/wiki/Running-Slic3r-from-git-on-GNU-Linux

Anyway, from your description, I can only offer a way to easily choose the version of perl that you wish to run.

The solution is to use perlbrew. With perlbrew, you can use perlbrew available to check the version of perl that is available for installation. And use perlbrew install 5.14.4 to install the version you choose (I use perl-5.14.4 as an example). This may take a while. After the installation is complete, you can use perlbrew switch perl-5.14.4 to change the version of perl to 5.14.4. Now use perl -v to check the version of your perl, it should be 5.14.4. If you want to switch back, you can just turn off perlbrew by perlbrew off, at this time if you run perl -v, it should be the version of perl that ships with your system.

To sum it up, use perlbrew to switch between different versions of perl. And try to compile again with perl-5.14.4. You can find the installation instructions on perlbrew homepage. I suggest you read how I deal with it on Ubuntu https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r/wiki/Running-Slic3r-from-git-on-GNU-Linux. The solution may be similar.

And, sorry that I can't open the gist link that you provided due to our Great Fire Wall (Chinese,, hmm, 😢 .

[lordofhyphens]

In my experience, perl 5.20.1 compiles Slic3r 1.2.x fine on Linux (and
Windows via StrawberryPerl). That's what I use for the basis of my Debian
bleeding-edge package (source is available on my fork, binary package at
https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/0B3aPl7CmzLRvfjBaQmNXNUFlbXlHNHhlLWQxMjQ3X0NjX2p3V3k1LU9EWktkTXNDcWgxeG8).
I am more likely to believe that issues compiling are related to other
issues in the system (libraries, broken CPAN, etc).

5.14 was released 2 years ago and is EOL'd (and isn't even shipped by
Debian Stable, one of the crustiest distros in terms of package age).

Actually, Slic3r works fine with all Perl versions except for 5.16.

[alranel]

Unfortunately, I don't have access to a Maverick machine so I can't test myself. Maybe a user-land perl installed with perlbrew helps.

[demolition602099]

Hi!,

I am having trouble compiling the slic3r. I have used Strawberry Pearl and Citrus Perl.

Thank you in advance

[lordofhyphens]

Yeah, odds are your exact version of Perl is misconfigured or not
compatible. Gg.
