What linux version plays well with Docsis -Server

I am interested in trying out Docsis-server 3.5 but have had quite a bit off issues with all the make file problems that I see posts for everywhere.

Does anyone know of a distro that the 3.5 works well with.

I would be running it in a vmware VM for test purposes if that affects your recommendation of distro.

Thanks in advance.

Hopefully someone that's actually compiled it can answer up, but I've always used Centos (RHEL) as packages and 3rd party repositories for just about anything are widely available. Good luck-

BTW, what makefile errors are you getting?

The Gnu_m4 error.

Also something about mysql/mysql.h not found, even though i have mysql and mysql-devel packages installed.

My goal is to get a configuration I like then create a LiveCD type thing for us to use as a lab type version or emergency provisioning device.

Post the output from configure & make, perhaps someone might recognize the issue. You can save it to a text file and attach it to the reply.

i have docsis_server running on a CentOS 5 box. Do you have mysql-server installed as well? I got that error before I install mysql-server from the yum repository.

--John

Could you get that to play on CentOS 5?

Poge

Yes.

I am running both docsis_server and docsis-0.9.6 on CentOS.
