Installing on Ubuntu Instructions Help
Added by Puck Norris over 10 years ago
Thanks for your time.
I've spun up a new box on Ubuntu so as not to run into any problemms with the install instructions and when I reach the step:
cmake -DWT_SOURCE_DIR=/usr/share/doc/witty-doc/ -DEXAMPLES_CONNECTOR="wt;wthttp" /usr/share/doc/witty-doc/examples
It says the examples directory does not exist. I have done all of the steps at: http://redmine.emweb.be/projects/1/wiki/Installing_Wt_on_Ubuntu except for the alternate install methods (since I'm on Ubuntu I just used apt-get). In other words, I have done the main heading "Installing from the Official Package" then skipped "Installing from Prebuilt Packages", "Installing from Sources", and then picked back up at the point that reads, "Try the Examples" with that line in cmake.
Please help me understand what I'm missing.

Hey Puck,
The examples are not installed when you use the 'Official' Ubuntu packages.
They do come with the packages built by Pau ("Installing from Prebuilt packages"). These are usually also more up-to-date.
Since we do development on Ubuntu, you should find that installing from source is also pretty straight forward.
Regards,
Koen
