Dynare forums

hello,

i am installing Dynare version 4.12 on a Mac with OS 10.5.8, matlab version R2008b (7.7). I have gcc v4.0 installed but when i am running build_matlab, I am getting the following error message: Any help is appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi,

I will test this on 10.5.8 tomorrow as I left that machine at home. In the meanwhile, please do the following:

1) Delete /Applications/Dynare/4.1.2
2) Reinstall Dynare 4.1.2
3) In Matlab, type

Code: Select all

cd /Applications/Dynare/4.1.2/src/mex/sources


4) In Matlab, type

Code: Select all

build_matlab

Is the error still there? If so, do the following:

1) open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
2) At the terminal prompt, type:

Code: Select all

ls /Applications/Dynare/4.1.2/mex/matlab

Post the output.
3) At the terminal prompt, type:

Code: Select all

gcc-4.0 --version

Post the output.
4) At the terminal prompt, type

Code: Select all

cd /Applications/Dynare/4.1.2/src/mex/sources


5) At the terminal prompt, type

Code: Select all

gcc-4.0 -c -I. -I/Applications/MATLAB_R2008b.app/extern/include -I/Applications/MATLAB_R2008b.app/simulink/include -DMATLAB_MEX_FILE -fno-common -no-cpp-precomp -fexceptions -DHAVE_PTHREAD -DMATLAB_MEX_FILE -DMATLAB_VERSION=0x0707 -DMX_COMPAT_32 -O3 "mjdgges/mjdgges.c" -o ../../../mex/matlab/mjdgges.o

Hi,

I just installed Dynare 4.1.2 from the package downloaded from the website on OS X 10.5.8 and Matlab R2008a. As everything went smoothly, I can only assume that there is some specific problem with the setup on your computer. If you would like to discuss this further, please call me (check your private message inbox for my number).

Best,
Houtan
