Re: Question about running luaxmlrpc

Hi,
So, it seems like my luaexpat installation is not right.  
I tried to do a search on lxo.so, but nothing is found:
ser:/# find / -name lxp.so

Then, I tried to reinstall luaexpat:
ser:/usr/src/luaexpat-1.1# make clean
rm -f src/lxp.so.1.1.0 src/lxplib.o ../compat-5.1r5/compat-5.1.o
ser:/usr/src/luaexpat-1.1# make
gcc -Wall -pedantic -Waggregate-return -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wpointer-arith -Wshadow -Wwrite-strings -ansi -O2 -I/usr/local/include -I../compat-5.1r5 -I/usr/local/include   -c -o src/lxplib.o src/lxplib.c
gcc -c -Wall -pedantic -Waggregate-return -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wpointer-arith -Wshadow -Wwrite-strings -ansi -O2 -I/usr/local/include -I../compat-5.1r5 -I/usr/local/include -o ../compat-5.1r5/compat-5.1.o ../compat-5.1r5/compat-5.1.c
export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET="10.3"; gcc -o src/lxp.so.1.1.0 -shared  src/lxplib.o ../compat-5.1r5/compat-5.1.o -lexpat
ser:/usr/src/luaexpat-1.1# 

But after that, I still can't find the lxp.so file nor the lxp.lua file.

What could be the problem with my installation?

Thanks alot for all your help.

Regards,
Pete

       Hi Peter

Luaexpat is installed, but I can't see lxp.lua there, the only files that
are available are:

ser:/usr/src/luaexpat-1.1/src/lxp# ls
lom.lua
ser:/usr/src/luaexpat-1.1/src/lxp# cd ..
ser:/usr/src/luaexpat-1.1/src# ls
lxp  lxp.def  lxplib.c    lxplib.h  lxplib.o  lxp.so.1.1.0
ser:/usr/src/luaexpat-1.1/src#

       This is not LuaExpat installation directory.  Note that
Lua tries to load a Lua module first.  If it is not found, then it
tries a binary module, as can be seen in the error message from the
other message:

Lua 5.1.3  Copyright (C) 1994-2008 Lua.org, PUC-Rio

./xmlrpc.lua:7: module 'lxp' not found:

    no file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/lxp.so'  -- lxp should be here!

    no file '/usr/lib/lua/5.1/lxp.so'

       Note that LuaExpat is a binary module (which should be
installed in `lib`), while lom.lua is a Lua module (which should
be installed in `share`).
