Please let me know whether comment on following line has no impact(below mail).
After compilation and install is done. I am copying the following to ramdisk path. Meaning this will be present in my host system.
Please let me know if this is fine or anything else has to copied

cp -rf / % INSTALL PATH% /lib/syslog-ng / %RAMDISK PATH% /lib   //complete directory is copied
cp -f / % INSTALL PATH% /lib/libsyslog-ng-3.7.so.0 / %RAMDISK PATH% /lib
cp -f / % INSTALL PATH% /sbin/syslog-ng / %RAMDISK PATH% /sbin
cp -f / % INSTALL PATH% /etc/syslog-ng.conf / %RAMDISK PATH% /etc/

Regards,
Girish

Thanks Chris for the information.

I commented following line in "syslog-ng-3.7.2/ltmain.sh" (at line 2967). With this my make install worked fine. Please let me know if this is ok to comment

test "$inst_prefix_dir" = "$destdir" && \
    #func_fatal_error "error: cannot install \`$file' to a directory not ending in $libdir"


I will explain my Makefile

configure  --prefix=/ --host=$(CCPREFIX) --disable-python  --disable-json --enable-ssl --enable-glib make make install prefix=$(BUILT_BASE)

Here BUILT_BASE= /home/gkuma020/PERFORCE/7.X.X.R01-gkuma020-gg/engr/sw/tps/built/46/7.X.X.R01/ppc_common
As I  am cross compiling, this is the path in my build system After compilation generated exe and lib are copied to ramdisk path

Regards,
Girish

Hi Girish,

%PATH-TO-POWERPC-ROOTFS% is a path. In my setup, (I'm using the eldk from denx), the powerpc's rootfs is mounted over nfs to /opt/eldk/ppc_6xx.

For eventlog:
./configure --host=powerpc-linux-gnu
make
DESTDIR=/opt/eldk/ppc_6xx/ make install

For syslog-ng 3.7.2:
./configure --host=powerpc-linux-gnu --with-libtool-sysroot=/opt/eldk/ppc_6xx/
make
DESTDIR=/opt/eldk/ppc_6xx/ make install

What is your prefix? Try with the default prefix for eventlog and syslog-ng.
Is /sw/tps/built/46/7.X.X.R01/ppc_common/ the path on your host machine to your target rootfs?

Cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,

Could you please let me know  what is /%PATH-TO-POWERPC-ROOTFS%/ Is it flag or path.

In my case my lib path is  "/sw/tps/built/46/7.X.X.R01/ppc_common/lib"
Should I replace with that?

Regards,
Girish

Hi Girish

I've successfully cross-compiled syslog-ng 3.7.2 for powerpc using:
$ ./configure --host=powerpc-linux-gnu --with-libtool-sysroot=/%PATH-TO-POWERPC-ROOTFS%/
$ make
$ DESTDIR=/%PATH-TO-POWERPC-ROOTFS% make install

Cheers, Chris
