NS-2.34 Installation in Ubuntu 12.04: ns2 ns2 CD Ns2/ns-Allinone-2.34

This document provides solutions to errors that may occur when installing NS-2.34 in Ubuntu 12.04. The errors involve undefined references in linking otcl, errors constructing random variable objects, missing header files, and path setup issues. The solutions involve modifying lines in configuration files and source code files to switch the linker, remove constructor calls, include needed headers, and correctly set library paths.

For Ubuntu 9.

10 (karmic), you may encounter this error in the linking of otcl:


otcl.o: In function `OTclDispatch': /home/ns/ns-allinone-2.34/otcl/otcl.c:495: undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail_local' otcl.o: In function `Otcl_Init': /home/ns/ns-allinone-2.34/otcl/otcl.c:2284: undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail_local' ld: libotcl.so: hidden symbol `__stack_chk_fail_local' isn't defined ld: final link failed: Nonrepresentable section on output make: *** [libotcl.so] Error 1

This error is because the linker being used is "ld -shared" instead of "gcc -shared". If you edit one line in otcl-1.13/configure, and rerun install, it should work:
--- configure.orig 2009-11-02 12:14:52.556167945 -0800 +++ configure 2009-11-02 12:17:28.966706099 -0800 @@ -6301,7 +6301,7 @@ ;; Linux*) SHLIB_CFLAGS="-fpic" SHLIB_LD="ld -shared" + SHLIB_LD="gcc -shared" SHLIB_SUFFIX=".so" DL_LIBS="-ldl" SHLD_FLAGS=""

This will be fixed in future revisions of ns-2. f (int_m == m) { + resultPower = ErlangRandomVariable(Pr/m, int_m).value(); + } else { + resultPower = GammaRandomVariable(m, Pr/m).value(); + } + return resultPower; + }

NS-2.34 installation in Ubuntu 12.04


Follow the below given steps: Download ns-allinnone-2.34 from nasam website http://sourceforge.net/projects/nsnam/files/ns-2
Create a folder in home with name ns2

Extract the tar file in ns2

Open terminal and type cd ns2/ns-allinone-2.34

Install required libraries for ns2 using terminal sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libxmu-dev

Then, sudo ./install

In terminal sudo gedit ~/.bash_aliases

Then copy the following path and modify according to your system path
# LD_LIBRARY_PATH OTCL_LIB=/home/ramakrishna/ns2/ns-allinone-2.34/otcl-1.13 NS2_LIB=/home/ramakrishna/ns2/ns-allinone-2.34/lib X11_LIB=/usr/X11R6/lib USR_LOCAL_LIB=/usr/local/lib export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$OTCL_LIB:$NS2_LIB:$X11_LIB:$USR_LOCAL_LIB # TCL_LIBRARY TCL_LIB=/home/ramakrishna/ns2/ns-allinone-2.34/tcl8.4.18/library USR_LIB=/usr/lib export TCL_LIBRARY=$TCL_LIB:$USR_LIB # PATH XGRAPH=/home/ramakrishna/ns2/ns-allinone-2.34/bin:/home/ramakrishna/ns2/ns-allinone2.34/tcl8.4.18/unix:/home/ramakrishna/ns2/ns-allinone-2.34/tk8.4.18/unix NS=/home/ramakrishna/ns2/ns-allinone-2.34/ns-2.34/ NAM=/home/ramakrishna/ns2/ns-allinone-2.34/nam-1.14/ PATH=$PATH:$XGRAPH:$NS:$NAM

Save the file and type source ~/.bash_aliases

Now if you type ns in terminal it will show % symbol
