Hi guys! I'm trying to figure out what the reason is that PHP is not in the package repository for carambola2. Is it because the ram is too small at 64MB to run PHP, or has just nobody built the package for openwrt/mips yet? Don't get me wrong, I'm not too lazy to build the package myself, it's just that I haven't got a Carambola2 at home yet to try it myself. Nik |

My carambola2 should receive in a few days; as I'm using php-cli to process and upload data, I definitely need php - if it really isn't in the repository, I'll build a package for it. If I don't reply with experiences in about one week, poke me. |

Thanks Adam! Since I'm a complete Linux noob, it doesn't help me much unfortunately. (I don't have an aversion against learning though, I've been googling for literally hours today and can't really get started with my Carambola2) |

Well, it seems that on my machine the suggested setup on the carambola wiki didn't work. As explained there, I tried virtual box and Xubunto which unfortunately failed twice, so then I tried it on mac os x(getting all the packages from port , instead of with apt-get), which then also failed to compile. As a last resort I tried Virtual Box + Ubuntu (not xubuntu) and I now finally succeeded in building openwrt!  I still have troubles integrating mysql, but I hope I can figure that one out today as well BTW: for anybody who runs into trouble developing on a mac, here's what i did to finally make it work:: Mac os X 10.8.3 + Virtual box + Ubuntu 32 bit version Then i got required packages as explained on http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/buildroot.exigence (depends on OS version used in virtualbox) PLUS the packages named on the carambola wiki under http://8devices.com/wiki_carambola/doku ... e_to_start git clone https://github.com/8devices/carambola2 carambola2 cd carambola2 ./scripts/feeds update -a ./scripts/feeds install -a (install -a was apparently important - before I always only tried to install the pkgs that I really needed, which never worked) make menuconfig (-->select luci and the other required packages) make (wait 5 hours) --> done |
