Installing exmpp on Centos


This might be a novice question, but how would I install exmpp on a Centos 6 box?

I've scoured the internet and I can't find a solution. I can't seem to build it, nor can I find a rpm that works either via yum.

Any ideas and/or installation steps would be greatly appreciated.


Solution

  • You can install exmpp in two ways. both will work

    Installation via source

    Download the source from the following Source_Link

    cd /usr/local/src/
    
    wget the source here.
    
    tar -xvf file.tar.gz
    
    cd exmpp*
    autoreconf -i
    ./configure
    make
    make install
    

    Installation complete.

    Installation via git

    git clone git://git.process-one.net/exmpp/mainline.git exmpp_mainline

    cd exmpp_mainline
    ./configure
    make
    make install
    

    Installation is complete.

    There are few dependencies for the exmpp to get installed. Make sue that they are installed in the server.

    1. Erlang/OTP
    2. C compiler

      gcc

    3. XML parsing library

      LibXML2
