Compile issues

[Danalisan]

Hello,
I am trying to compile on my VPS a server of IRC services and keep getting errors that I can not seem to resolve. Any suggestions would be appreciated. This is on Centos5.

Any ideas?

misc_tools.c: In function ‘date’:
misc_tools.c:62: warning: passing argument 2 of ‘strcpy’ makes pointer from integer without a cast
misc_tools.c: In function ‘bottime’:
misc_tools.c:73: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
misc_tools.c:74: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type

The services are no longer in production so no support from author is available. I have put many hours into this and am at this point stumped. The services were designed to compile under RedHat5 so that shouldn't be an issue.

Just a thought but do you have the development files for "tzdata" (yes that's the name of the package ) installed? Check the repository for the dev package and make sure it's installed.

Also check that you have a full install of all the compiler packages.

Compile errors are usually down to missing development packages in my experience with Linux

Peace.
