Re: [Bug-XBoard] xboard: Failed to start first chess program gnuchessx on localhost: gnuchessx: No such file or directory

[Ketan Shah]

Hi

  Thanks for the info ..

  I have tried to install gnuchess-4.0.pl80

  so i was facing one issue  attached file which describes the cmds and its output (log.txt)

 

===============================================

dspcomN.o(.text+0x17e5): In function `ElapsedTime':
: undefined reference to `errno'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [gnuchess] Error 1

===============================================

 

 

  so to avoid above problem i  have modfied gnuan.c and dspcom.c as errno are used in fprintf only ..

 

==org code ==

   fprintf (stderr,    "You probably have a non-ANSI <ioctl.h>; see README. %d %d %x\n",  i, errno, FIONREAD);
== modfied code

   fprintf (stderr,    "You probably have a non-ANSI <ioctl.h>; see README. %d %x\n",  i,  FIONREAD);

 

 and recompiled every c file and put gnuchess in my PATH variable 

 My PATH variable has :

 $HOME/chess/gnuchess-4.0.pl80/src:$HOME/chess/gnuchess-4.0.pl80/misc

 

  Now whne i am doing xboard facing following issue ..

xboard: Failed to start first chess program gnuchessx on localhost: NO LANGFILE (file gnuchess.lang not found)

i have seen gnuchess.lang  is present at $HOME/chess/gnuchess-4.0.pl80/misc still i am facing above issue .. please can you help on the same ?

 

 

 

Thanks !!

 

 

Regards

Ketan
