Installing Spring for SPADS without admin rights (Linux)

Post by Amalrik »

Hi. I m trying to install spads on a debian 5.0 (lenny) server.
I ve got a user acces and I succesfully compiled spring project (0.78.2.1), but as I ve not the rightsd to preform the "make install", I just copy/pasted absolute path to libunitsync.so and spring-dedicated files.
However, whatever I choose stable/testing or even unstable version, spadsInstaller give an
"ERROR - [SpadsInstaller] Unable to initialize UnitSync library"

Do you have any idea of the problem ?

If it's just a problem with access rights on system directories, you can add "-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/some/install/path" to your cmake command so that it will install into this directory.

It seems the unitsync library doesn't work, can you check your unitsync.log file for any error ?
