...building pll ...pll FAIL!

Hi!

I'm trying to install jmodeltest-ng and I obtained this error: Using Qt version 5.6.2 in /Users/BEHB/anaconda/bin/lib ...configuration: prefix: /modeltest/modeltest-0.1.3/build build: /modeltest/modeltest-0.1.3/build pll: [yes] /modeltest/modeltest-0.1.3/libs/pll-modules/libs/libpll modules: [yes] /modeltest/modeltest-0.1.3/libs/pll-modules include: /modeltest/modeltest-0.1.3/build/include lib: /modeltest/modeltest-0.1.3/build/lib

...writing log to /modeltest/modeltest-0.1.3/build.log ...build pll ...building pll ...pll FAIL!

when I do ./build.sh

Could you please post your build.log file? You can also try using cmake:

$ mkdir build && cd build $ cmake .. $ make

Yes, configure arguments: CPPFLAGS=-I/analisis/modeltest-ng-0.1.3/build/include LDFLAGS=-L/analisis/modeltest-ng-0.1.3/build/lib --prefix /analisis/modeltest-ng-0.1.3/build checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /usr/bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... mawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... no checking whether make supports nested variables... no checking build system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu checking for gcc... no checking for cc... no checking for cl.exe... no configure: error: in /analisis/modeltest-ng-0.1.3/libs/pll-modules/libs/libpll': configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH Seeconfig.log' for more details

It seems you don't have a C compiler. You should install gcc first.

Dear darriba

I have an other issue to install the Modeltest-NG in Mac OS Catalina.

In my build log only report as:

./build.sh: line 130: autoreconf: command not found

Here was my solution to the following issue:

...build pll
   ...building pll
...pll FAIL!

Inspecting build.log revealed that I did not have the FLEX or BISON pre-requisites. Here are my steps, from the beginning.

Install flex and bison:

conda install flex bison

(Note: I also have the following conda packages installed: cmake, autoconf, and automake.

Clone the modeltest-ng repo, version control to the v0.1.6 release:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/ddarriba/modeltest.git
cd modeltest/
git checkout v0.1.6

Edit build.sh to disable building gui:

build_gui=no             # build modeltest-gui

Run the build script:

./build.sh

My build output now says (this is Windows Subsystem for Linux):
