Problem installing vls

Postby MartinNL » 13 May 2007 00:45

I'm want to install vls on Debian 3.1 (stable) since I only want to broadcast mms streams.

I got the libs installed and managed to run ./configure and 'make' without any errors.

When i run 'make install' I get the following error message:

.......:/etc/vls-0.5.6# make install
mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
/usr/bin/install -c bin/vls /usr/local/bin
/usr/bin/install: cannot stat `bin/vls': No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1

I think it should be /bin/vls instead of bin/vls, but that's just a lucky guess since this the first time i'm working with Linux, and how do you change this.

Sugestians, anybody :?:

Don't use VLS. Use VLC instead.

vls on Debian

Postby MartinNL » 13 May 2007 13:40

I tried to install VLC but that isn't working at all.
I'm running Debian on a virtual server so I don't have a GUI. The only thing I want to do is broadcast mms streams and nothing else.

Why not use vls for this single task ?

because: VLS is deprecated and not maintained and don't do mms
