Linux ubuntu compiling

[Brooke]

I'm trying to compile the sources and then I get this error. Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS

tfs 0.3.6, 3429

configure: error: "lua header not found."

I tried to do this:

wget http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.1.4.tar.gz
tar -xzvf lua*
cd lua*
make linux && make install
then do ./configure again

After I did "make linux && make install" I got:

mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/man/man1': Permission denied
mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/share/lua': Permission denied
mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/lib/lua': Permission denied
make: *** [install] Error 1

I used sudo, still didnt work

why are u compiling it? can't u install it from repository?

 

[dominique120]

chmod -R 777 'your-directory-here'

or use 'su' before executing everything.

You have to compile and install it as root.

If you did sudo, you might have done half of the commands as "root". Try sudo su, to gain root access, then do make && make install again.

I got this error now:

Function lua_pushglobaltable doesn't exist in Lua 5.1.4. This function has been implemented in Lua 5.2 as far as I know.
