problems installing sim4db-can't find python.h

vallejov · 04-05-2013, 02:04 PM

Hi all,

I'm trying to install sim4db and when I run the configuration.sh file I get the following errors:

WARNING: 'python' program found, but can't find include file 'Python.h' -- is python installed correctly?
WARNING: Set PYTHONHOME to the directory containing include/Pyhton.h
WARNING: Will not build ATAC.

From what I could gather on google, this means that it can't find the python headers. so I re-installed the develpment headers for my version of python (2.7), but that did not change anything.

It says to change the PYTHONHOME (I assume they mean in the configuration.sh file) to the directory containing include/Python.h, but I don't know how to do that! I found the location of the headers (/usr/include/dbus-1.0/dbus/dbus-python.h) on my computer but I am lacking the knowledge in bash scripting to change the PYTHONHOME directory in the configuration.sh file

Anyone else encounter this type of problem??

Thanks a bunch!
