Does OMShell-terminal start ok? (It can use raw sockets instead of CORBA)

Else, try to create a file a.mos:

checkSettings();

Run it:

omc a.mos

If everything works fine in that... Try to run:

omc +d=interactiveCorba

And see if any error-messages pop up. If it all looks fine it might be some setup of iptables that could possibly affect communicating with omc since it runs as a server process.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
Here are the results of your suggestions.

omc +d=interactiveCorba gives
CORBA disabled. Configure with --with-CORBA and recompile for enabling.
CORBA disabled. Configure with --with-CORBA and recompile for enabling.

Buth there is no such switch (shown with ./configure --help)


Some how it thinks CORBA is not enabled.

Add --with-omniORB and re-run make omc. --withCORBA was renamed to --with-MICO some time ago; I'll update the error-message.

Now I am able to get everything working but with some irksome issues  that need some attention for future builds.

The problem was

1. my first install went OK with previous build without ominORB which does not use python interface.
2. But I could not "uninstall" as make does not have such a target
3. With new config I hoped to overwrite original install but failed as it  was failing due to unrecognized layout (I think it is debian centric)
4. I installed new binaries manually, but forgot to update the library files. (that is what GOT ME ()


Anyway here are some issues that need to be addressed with install
   1.         /home/ravi/software/om/OpenModelica/PythonInterface/Makefile  failing with ....  option --install-layout not recognized
   2.         adding "uninstall" target
   3.         OpenModelica/OMOptim/Core/Optim/EA/SA1/SA1explorer.h (line 71 ... update method call does not provide second boolean argument
               needed as per the abstract class definition). I supplied default "false" value to complete make. Pl. advise as to what this ought to be.


Finally, I was wondering if I could choose "with-omniORB  and without-PythonInterface" combination to enable proper install.  What is the advantage of having python
interface????

Thank you once again for your kind advice.

1. Works fine on my arch (it looks for /etc/apt to decide if it has debian layout) In my opinion nothing is lost if you skip it, but someone some day would complain if it's missing

2. make uninstall is in my opinion rather pointless since package managers manage the installation or you choose some prefix or DESTDIR=some-test-dir
But you can try the following in trunk (I might add it):
find build/ -type f -exec bash -c 'rm `echo {} | sed s,^build,/usr,`' ';'
find build/ -type d -exec bash -c 'rmdir `echo {} | sed s,^build,/usr,`' ';'

3. Must only show up in g++-4.7 (I tried the g++ available on the testserver and it said nothing even with -Wall). I'll contact the developer though
