Comment on Using the SUNDIALS ODE package on Lion by ed

I’ve been working on other things, so I need to go back and double-check my architecture. If it defaults to 32-bit, then that’s what I got, but if it goes with compiler defaults, it was probably 64-bit.

But I didn’t actually try the Matlab toolbox—I don’t actually have Matlab. Are you linking against 64-bit versions of the Matlab mex libraries?

Hi,

were you also able to compile the whole stuff, including the Matlab Toolbox, in a 64 bit version ?

I’m getting errors such as

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
“_mxCreateScalarDouble”, referenced from:
_CVM_Initialization in cvm.o
_CVM_QuadInitialization in cvm.o
_CVM_SensInitialization in cvm.o
_CVM_AdjInitialization in cvm.o
_CVM_InitializationB in cvm.o
_CVM_QuadInitializationB in cvm.o
_mexFunction in cvm.o
…
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

mex: link of ‘ “cvm.mexmaci64″‘ failed.

Thank’s for any comment

To anyone that posted here and didn’t see their comment accepted until just now, my apologies—I’ve been lax in sorting through spam vs. real comments for a while.

I should be able to take a look at these issues in a few weeks—if you haven’t heard from me by September, send a note then.

Beyond that, I’m interested in finding someone else to maintain the code. I’m not really doing anything with Xgrid these days.

This isn’t working on 10.6.x anymore. It just tries to start xgridcontrollerd, which fails, and then it goes back to indicating the grid isn’t started.

if you try to start it manually, you get the following:

xgridcontrollerd[919] : Warning: controller database could not be opened: unable to open database file
xgridcontrollerd[919] : Error: controller database “/var/xgrid/controller/datastore.db” not read
xgridcontrollerd[919] : Notice: controller failed

For some reason, it’s refusing to create an initial datastore.db file. might work if you already had an existing one, though. (I tried creating a blank one, but it the complained about sql errors. I presume it’s a sqlite file. If someone could post the schema and tables from one, we might be able to manually create the thing.)

I’m having the same problem as Allen was having last year. Was any solution found?

Hi Ed,

I might be interested taking it over. I’m a musician, software developer and mac user… I’ve almost no experience in Cocoa/Objective-C but just asking to start with something interesting like LilyPad.

Many thanks,
Sam

[...] XGrid requires a machine to be setup as a controller (the machine the delegates the tasks to the agents and organises the returned process data, before forwarding it back to the client machine). In order to do this on a non-OS X server machine we first need to download the OS X Server Admin Tools from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL831 (version 10.5.7). Once installed the Server Admin tools are available by clicking Applications and then Server. The Xgrid Admin tool can be clicked here. This however is only a tool that administrates the controllers and jobs at the agents, once the controller is up and running (you have to choose a controller to connect to at the beginning). We therefore need to download a tool to ease the execution of the Xgrid Controller Service. For this I downloaded and installed XGridLite from http://edbaskerville.com/software/xgridlite/. [...]

Sorry, that’s an old link. Do you really want the code? If so, I’ll re-post it. Otherwise, I’ll just retire the link because I don’t think it’s really of interest.

Nope, LilyPad was a short-lived editor+previewer that I distributed separate from LilyPond. The one that comes with the LilyPond distribution is safe and sound—no worries!

A recent glance around the mailing list archives indicates that the best LilyPond tool on Mac OS X these days is a jEdit plugin. You’re subject to the rather un-Mac-like jEdit UI, but the feature set looks to be very nice.
