This page describes how to get OLA working on OS X, by downloading and compiling the source code.

If you just want to get OLA working and aren't a developer consider using the Mac Installer (.dmg file) to install a pre-compiled version [http://code.google.com/p/linux-lighting/ available here].
 
 
 
 
 
== Basic setup ==
 
 
 
* Install [http://developer.apple.com/technology/xcode.html Xcode]
 
* install [http://www.macports.org/ MacPorts]
 
 
 
== Use MacPorts to install dependencies==
 
 
 
$ port install pkgconfig git cppunit unittest-cpp protobuf-cpp
 
 
 
== Set some environment variables==
 
 
 
set $PATH to point to something sane:
 
 
 
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
 
export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include"
 
export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib"
 
 
 
== Optionally install microhttpd==
 
 
 
If you want the web interface you need these
 
 
 
* http://www.gnu.org/software/libmicrohttpd/ [>= 0.4] (Currently you need to install libgcrypt too for this library to work)
 
sudo port install libgcrypt
 
or you can disable https support (which works with OLA) by using the configure line "./configure --enable-https=no"
 
 
 
* Make sure you build AND install this before running "./configure" on OLA otherwise it will not detect the libraries and ignore all the HTTP server code
 
 
 
== Checkout OLA or Download the tarball ==
 
 
 
  git clone http://git.opendmx.net/ola
 
  cd ola
 
 
 
or
 
 
 
  wget $ola_url
 
  tar -zxf $ola_file
 
  cd lla
 
 
 
== Run autoreconf==
 
 
 
If this is the first time run with -i to install the missing files
 
 
 
autoreconf -i
 
 
 
== Do the usual steps==
 
 
 
./configure
 
make
 
make check
 
sudo make install
 
 
 
 
 
== Common Problems ==
 
 
 
=== Architectures ===
 
 
 
Snow Leopard builds binaries as 64-bit by default. If you need to build as 32-bit use the following to configure:
 
 
 
  CPPFLAGS="-arch i386"  LDFLAGS=" -arch i386" ./configure
 
 
 
Then, build using:
 
 
 
  make CPPFLAGS="-arch i386"  LDFLAGS="-arch i386"
 
 
 
Note you'll need to do the same when you run make check:
 
 
 
  make CPPFLAGS="-arch i386"  LDFLAGS="-arch i386" check
 
 
 
=== ltdl/libtool ===
 
 
 
If you get an error like the following:
 
 
 
/bin/sh ./libtool --tag=CC  --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.  -I/opt/local/var/macports/software/protobuf-cpp/2.0.3_0/opt/local/include/  -g -O2 -c -o ltdl.lo ltdl.c
 
./libtool: line 464: CDPATH: command not found
 
/Users/simonn/lighting/lla/libltdl/libtool: line 464: CDPATH: command not found
 
/Users/simonn/lighting/lla/libltdl/libtool: line 1142: func_opt_split: command not found
 
libtool: Version mismatch error.  This is libtool 2.2.6, but the
 
libtool: definition of this LT_INIT comes from an older release.
 
libtool: You should recreate aclocal.m4 with macros from libtool 2.2.6
 
libtool: and run autoconf again.
 
 
 
Your system uses a different version of libtool. Run:
 
 
 
  glibtoolize --ltdl -c -f
 
 
 
and then start from the autoreconf step again. This problem shouldn't occur in releases >= 0.7.0.
