redis 2.6 stable install fail on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS

[charsyam]

maybe you need to install jemalloc. you can download it from below site.
http://www.canonware.com/jemalloc/

[ardsu]

after install jemalloc

sudo make install

cd src && make install

[charsyam]

Hi ardsu. When did you download redis 2.6.0 stable? maybe I think you downloaded 2.6.0-rc8, It is same symptom when I downloaded 2.6.0-rc8, try to download 2.6.0 in redis.io.

[ardsu]

thanks for answer.
i'm sure.it it 2.6.0.
libhiredis.a and liblua.a and libjemalloc.a should have done in package,but files no in package。

[charsyam]

hi ardsu and antirez, I think it is not only because of sync_file_range. The behavior of Makefile is somewhat different. I found that it doesn't run "cd deps; make hiredis lua jemalloc linenoise" , try this https://github.com/charsyam/redis-2.6.0-rh5.git maybe you can build it well

[ardsu]

successed install redis 2.6.2 .

[anentropic]

I just had the same problem with 2.6.4 - have to manually cd deps; make hiredis lua jemalloc linenoise first before the main make

(I also had to install gcc first before any of above, on a fresh Ubuntu 12.04 EC2 instance - should mention in the instructions too maybe, for noobs like me)

the download instructions on the website currently say:

Download, extract and compile Redis with:
$ wget http://redis.googlecode.com/files/redis-2.6.4.tar.gz
$ tar xzf redis-2.6.4.tar.gz
$ cd redis-2.6.4
$ make

[guersam]

The same with @anentropic on Ubuntu JeOS 12.04.

[antirez]

Hello, I just tested under Ubuntu 12.04 without any issue at all following the same instructions... so without further details I'm unlikely to be able to fix this for lack of reproducibility.

Cheers,
Salvatore

[charsyam]

@guersam is it 32bit? or 64bit OS?

[antirez]

I tried with both btw (make 32 also). My ubuntu ships with make version 3.81

I'm using the following EC2 AMI provided by Ubuntu:

AMI: ubuntu/images/ebs/ubuntu-precise-12.04-amd64-server-20121001 (ami-c1aaabb5)

[antirez]

Please could you report the full output of the failed compilation? Thanks.

[charsyam]

I try to reproduce this bug m1.small ec2 64bit ubuntu 12.04 but it compiled well 2.6.4
and after apt-get install build-essential it's make version is 3.81
what is your ec2 instance model?

[anentropic]

I think maybe doing sudo apt-get install build-essential first is the difference. I didn't know to do that.

I have just reproduced using a clean instance of the AMI I gave above (ami-c1aaabb5). I do:

Fail, but I am able to install Redis by following the extra steps:

cd deps
make hiredis lua jemalloc linenoise
cd ../
make

I was also able to install Redis following the instructions from the website on another instance, where I had already installed other software. I guess one of them had installed the prerequisites for me.

[charsyam]

@anentropic @antirez I finally found the reason. it is because of .make-* files
after first building failure, it already made some .make-*files
so it disturbs building of redis server.
remove dep/.make-cflags deps/.make-ldflags deps/.make-prerequisites
and remove src/.make-prerequisites src/.make-setting

exactly. it is because of src/.make-* files.

and make again. It will work well!.

@antirez. I have a question why do you use .make-prerequisites? It is just from my curious. thank you.

hmm. In Makefile, there is distclean option.
just run

 make distclean 

[guersam]

@charsyam It was 64bit, but you already found out the clue, thanks!

[srlowe]

I'm had the same issue building the latest stable (2.6.9) on Debian Squeeze 64.

zmalloc.h:50:31: error: jemalloc/jemalloc.h: No such file or directory
zmalloc.h:55:2: error: #error "Newer version of jemalloc required"

I don't know what jemalloc is, and it doesnt' seem to be available from apt-get

The fix posted above seems to have fixed it:

cd deps
make hiredis lua jemalloc linenoise

Are these steps supposed to be necessary? If so please could they be added to the installation notes on the download page?

[charsyam]

@bgSosh I think you need "make distclean"

[superqbb]

@charsyam I tryed "make distclean". But the issue still exist.

[charsyam]

@superqbb hi. I am sorry, I don't know your situation.

Plz, Just try next step:

[root@localhost redis-2.6.10]# apt-get install build-essential
[root@localhost redis-2.6.10]# make distclean
[root@localhost redis-2.6.10]# cd deps; make; cd ..
[root@localhost redis-2.6.10]# cd src; make; cd ..

good luck.

[AllenDou]

see issue #706

[AlekSi]

make distclean fixed it. @antirez may you mention it instead of make clean in README?

[ecalvo-palominodb]

I faced this issue but in a really weird way. I have 2 micro instances using Amazon Kernel :
Linux ip-10-226-117-251 3.4.37-40.44.amzn1.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Mar 21 01:17:08 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The weird thing was that in the first, the make runs flawlessly. In the 2nd I compiled the deps first. Still trying to dig what happened there.

[boriswaguia]

got the same issue that jemalloc.h was not found, with redis redis-2.6.16, on ubuntu server 12.0.4..3 LTS. and Following instructrions describes by @anentropic solved it.

[ic]

Same situation with redis-2.8.7 on Ubuntu 12.0.4.3 LTS.
Building the dependencies first as suggested by @anentropic works still:
cd deps; make hiredis lua jemalloc linenoise

Simple proposal to fix this issue: ic@f3fb4b2

[antirez]

Hello, thanks for reporting this issue. The proposed fix is not the right one IMHO, since the Makefile, in theory (read: even if it is not working in some case) should build dependencies by forcing the ".make-prerequisite" target as first.

Basically every object depends on .make-prerequisite:

%.o: %.c .make-prerequisites

And .make-prerequisites depends on persist-settings, which is the target that will build dependencies:

.make-prerequisites: persist-settings

However the above is only optionally included, depending on the fact that the current CFLAGS are the same as the one generated previously. I've some feeling that the following line is not working as expected in certain setups:

ifneq ($(strip $(PREV_FINAL_CFLAGS)), $(strip $(FINAL_CFLAGS)))

I'll try to reproduce here to see if I can fix it, I use Ubuntu extensively and I never seen anything like that.

[bunkat]

I just hit this same issue with a clean install of Ubuntu 14.04 server on a physical machine. cd deps; make hiredis lua jemalloc linenoise worked for me as well.

[badboy]

A make distclean would probably have worked as well.

[loujiayu]

Same issue with redis(2.8) on Ubuntu 12.04.Make distclean fixed it.

[ChrisRus]

Sorry: not Redis2.6* but this page is a likely hit and this will help someone I hope:

\o/ All tests passed without errors!

^--- this was on a Azure Ubuntu VM. Good grief what a disaster.

I basically used this post and comments to play whack-a-mole with the half-dozen or so out-of-the-box missing dependencies issues. FWIW, on a clean Azure/Ubuntu image apt-get update / upgrade / build-essential as baseline, as indicated above additional apt-get install of make and gcc were required. As above manual make of deps/* required. And finally, apt-get install tcl in order to execute your final make test.

[bartmcleod]

Same issue here with 2.8.13, this solved it:
cd deps
make hiredis lua jemalloc linenoise
cd ../
make

[g-p-g]

"Simple" way to reproduce it: create a new droplet for Ubuntu 14.04 x64 at digitalocean (I'm not associated to it in any way); download redis 2.8.13; apt-get install the bare minimum to be able to compile it; make; link step fails as mentioned in the third comment.

[michaelsmassey]

The first answer on this link solved my problem
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/94479/jemalloc-and-other-errors-making-redis-on-centos-6-4

[Meekohi]

make distclean worked for me, but I had been trying make clean with no success.

[chrisfranko]

make distclean also worked for me, make clean nope.

[breakeryang]

编译的时候会出现一些怪问题， 如我在挂载的NTFS盘下，就无法编译，而移到ext4下就可以编译！

[pctj101]

FYI, I found this happens when:
A build is run while jemalloc/libtool or other dependencies are NOT on the system.
Then these dependencies are installed
Then a make is run again (then the deps can't link properly)

Thus a distclean fixes this out-of-order execution problem.

[alessandroros]

make distclean has also worked for me. Thanks for the tip!

[daredevil82]

I came across this same issue with installing 3.2 from source on ubuntu 14.04. make distclean was the solution for missing lua and geo dependency errors.

Echoing @McFarts that adding make distclean to the quickstart and/or README would be beneficial.

[findchris]

This thread saved me. A simple make (on Ubuntu 14.04) definitely didn't work.

[kumarryogeshh]

Following steps worked for me:

1. sudo apt-get update
2. sudo apt-get install build-essential
3. sudo apt-get install tcl8.5
4. wget http://download.redis.io/redis-stable.tar.gz
5. tar xvzf redis-stable.tar.gz
6. cd redis-stable
7. make

[Simplexletalis]

Just wanted to add that I had to run make distclean as sudo to get this working.
