make installcheck errors for PyNEST Testsuite

[steffengraber]

Hi,

that's it what I did:

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/steffen/work/opt/nest 
      -Dwith-optimize=ON 
      -Dwith-warning=ON 
      -Dwith-mpi=OFF 
      -Dwith-python=ON 
      -Dwith-gsl=ON 
      -Dwith-libneurosim=ON
make
make install
make installcheck

Everything looks nice, but at the end of the checks:

ERROR: One-to-one connectivity with id ranges
  NameError: global name 'GetChildren' is not defined
  ERROR: One-to-one connectivity
  NameError: global name 'GetChildren' is not defined
  ERROR: One-to-one connectivity with 1-dim subnets

      self.assertRaisesRegex(nest.NESTError, "BadProperty", nest.CGConnect, pop0, pop1, cg)
  NameError: global name 'GetChildren' is not defined

  FAILED (SKIP=6, errors=5)

  PyNEST tests: 524

     Failed: 5

Looks like a problem with the libneuronsim. But cmake says:

Use libneurosim     : Yes (LibNeurosim 1.0.0)
    Includes        : /usr/local/include
    Libraries       : /usr/local/lib/libneurosim.so;/usr/local/lib/libpyneurosim.so

@steffengraber Any news on this one with more recent versions?

[steffengraber]

I've tried it with the nest live media, installed the libneurosim and downloaded the newest master.
The same problems as above.

[jougs]

This is related to and fixed by #483. See #206 for a similar problem when using CSA.

@jougs @steffengraber Can we close this issue in view of @jougs last comment?

[jougs]

I guess not until #483 is merged. I try to work on updating that asap and report back.

[jougs]

Fixed by the merge of #483.

Hi @steffengraber . Can you give me a linker to download Libneuronsim. Thank you very much.

Thank you for your help. I have got some trouble when I install libneuronsim. First, i can't find configure in "libneurosim-master". Second , when i use autoconf to compile the configure.ac failed. It give me information as such: "configure.ac:3: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. configure.ac:4: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONFIG_HEADER configure.ac:5: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_MAINTAINER_MODE configure.ac:31: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONDITIONAL configure.ac:158: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PATH_PYTHON configure.ac:185: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL ".I do not know what to do next. 在 2018-06-11 23:31:20，"Jochen Martin Eppler" <[email protected]> 写道： https://github.com/INCF/libneurosim — You are receiving this because you commented.

@xdzhangxuejun Please ask questions about libneurosim in forums for libneurosim, not in the NEST issue tracker. The problems you see look like generic problems with your autotools installation.
