Installation problem......

Post by defendtherealm »

Hi all !

You have most probably seen this a million times before.....

I have installed TCL for linux from ActiveState. The version is 4.4.0

I have put the path in my profile and have set the TCLLIB and TCLINC variables...I have double checked the paths and I am as sure as I can be that they are correct.

Yet I still get the error below. Please help !!!!! Thanks

It's a mystery to me why it comes up with that error considering the recent version I am using. To be honest, a few moons ago I tried all of this before and came up with the same results even using version 8.3.4

Cheers.

Chris.

You wrote you are using a version 4.4.0 and you get the errormessage your tcl version is outdated. That's pretty clear I think.

It remains that the error message is:
Environment variable TCLLIB was set, but incorrect.
Please set both TCLLIB and TCLINC correctly if you wish to use them.
configure will now attempt to autodetect both the Tcl library and header...
From the copy and paste of your environment variables it seems you should have installed it in /usr/local/ActiveTcl. But from the shell transcript it is not clear what is inside that directory.
Is appears you should pay extra attention to the location of the header file.
