I tried to build the GetStatus? service from the workshop tutorials on my Ubuntu 64-bit system and got an error:

/usr/bin/ld: ../../../zoo-kernel/service_internal.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC ../../../zoo-kernel/service_internal.o: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: * [cgi-env/wps_status.zo] Error 1

I think I fixed it by adding the "-shared -fPIC" arguments to the makefile for the zoo_loader.cgi in the service_internal.o section like this: service_internal.o: service_internal.c service.h

gcc ${JS_ENABLED} ${JSCFLAGS} ${XML2CFLAGS} ${CFLAGS} -shared -fPIC -c service_internal.c

Since Ubuntu 10.4, there is no more mozjs-dev package. This package was based on SpiderMonkey? 1.7, the last one publish by Mozilla. But Mozilla continue to use and improve SpiderMonkey?. The actual version is 1.9.2, and when Firefox 4 will be out, SpiderMonkey? 2.0 will out too.

Since Firefox 2 and XulRunner? 1.8, SpiderMonkey? has not to be published alone. SpiderMonkey? is in XulRunner? development package. This mean that we don't need to compile SpiderMonkey? on Ubuntu or other Linux system to have SpiderMonkey?, we jsut have to use Xulrunner-devel package.

The configure script need to be update to look at the good folder for lib and include :

• libmozjs.so is in /usr/lib/xulrunner-devel.1.9.13/lib
• jsapi.h is in /usr/lib/xulrunner-devel.1.9.2.13/include

we can specify --with-js=/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel.1.9.13

I have to do this changes to have a good configuration script :

• JS_CPPFLAGS="-I$JSHOME/include/js" --> JS_CPPFLAGS="-I$JSHOME/include"
• JS_LDFLAGS="-L$JSHOME/lib -ljs -lm" --> JS_LDFLAGS="-L$JSHOME/lib -lmozjs -lm"
• JS_LIB="js" --> JS_LIB="mozjs"

and update the Makefile :

• JS_FILE= -- >JS_FILE=service_internal_js.o

I need to install Sphinx on the ZOO Project server, but my username (jmckenna) does not have permission. Please give jmckenna sudo privileges.
