Linux Compiling on linux

[ziggy46802]

Im follow this guide

Compiling on Ubuntu 12.04 precise, 64bit

and it says to

Now, for the shell scripts.
You need to execute these commands:
Code:

sh autogen.sh
./configure --enable-mysql --enable-sqlite --enable-server-diag

when I tried to run these in the terminal both didnt work, so how do I do them?

This is what I get in the terminal:

steven@ubuntu:~$ sh autogen.sh
sh: 0: Can't open autogen.sh
steven@ubuntu:~$ sudo su
[sudo] password for steven: 
root@ubuntu:/home/steven# sh autogen.sh
sh: 0: Can't open autogen.sh
root@ubuntu:/home/steven# ./configure --enable-mysql --enable-sqlite --enable-server-diag
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
root@ubuntu:/home/steven#

will rep whoever helps me

Does your sources have the correct permission? "chmod 777 -R /home/tfs/sources" for example.

I get this

root@ubuntu:/home/steven# chmod 777 -R /home/Lighdel/sources
chmod: cannot access `/home/Lighdel/sources': No such file or directory
root@ubuntu:/home/steven#

but the folder "Lighdel" is in my home folder and "sources" folder is in Lighdel folder so I don't get it

Enter the directory where the sources are with the cd command, then just write "make".

If that does not work, stay in the same folder and write:
chmod 777 -R *
./autogen.sh

It is not possible to compile on ubuntu 12.04 I think becouse I've tried it & it didnt work smooth... Start all over with ubuntu 11.04 and follow my tutorial mate.

Check my signature for it, good luck!
