[gridengine users] problems compiling on Mac OS X Lion

Hi Pete,

This is Ron who checked in the Mac OS X SGE port into the original project CVS*. I don't spend time on OS X anymore, so there may be changes happened there that I missed.


For (1), you will need to modify at least aimk and arch

For (2), you will need to use the Java SDK (Oracle's JDK) instead of Apple's JDK, or just compile with -no-java -no-jni to skip all the Java dependencies.

For (3), if you correctly modified arch in step (1), then you should have very little problem during installation.


Rayson offered pre-compiled binaries for AIX, Solaris (SPARC & x64), and OS X for Open Grid Scheduler/Grid Engine 2011.11 patch 1. If you are interested, he will point you to the download link.

* - to be fair to others who worked on the OSX port, we also have Derek Homeier, William van Etten, Brooks Davis, Greg Wuller
and others (including Rayson Ho and others from Bioteam). The code that detects the number of processors & free memory was contributed by Rayson

Subject: [gridengine users] problems compiling on Mac OS X Lion


I would like to install SGE on my Mac.  I am running OS X 10.7.3, though uname reports a slightly different version number:
> uname -a
Darwin Pete-Stevensons-MacBook-Pro.local 11.3.0 Darwin Kernel Version 11.3.0: Thu Jan 12 18:47:41 PST 2012; root:xnu-1699.24.23~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64
> uname -m
x86_64
> uname -s
Darwin
> uname -r
11.3.0
There are several issues:
1. scripts (compilearch and others) do not recognize this version of OS X
2. dependency issues (can't find certain required headers for JNI, i.e. after hacking the scripts)
3. after spending hours hacking issues (1) and (2), the install scripts refused to work

Maybe issue (3) depends on mistakes made in hacking issues (1) and (2) (or maybe not).  At any rate, I am still interested in getting SGE to work.  Please help.

Thank you,
Pete Stevenson
