Newbie: Autoconf error when installing Freeswitch on Mac OS
Hi, I'm new to Freeswitch. I tried installing Freeswitch using the commands from the wiki svn checkout http://svn.freeswitch.org/svn/freeswitch/trunk freeswitch 1) su root % use sudo passwd root to reset the root password if you don't know the password <password> 2) cd /usr/local 3) mkdir src % create /usr/local/src directory 4) cd src svn checkout http://svn.freeswitch.org/svn/freeswitch/trunk freeswitch 5) cd freeswitch ./bootstrap.sh I still get the error that autoconf 2.59 or above is needed. I even tried the command AUTOCONF=/usr/bin/autoconf ./bootstrap.sh However, I think this assume that I have an autoconf file in /usr/bin. Needless to say, I still get the error messages that autoconf 2.59 or above is required. Can anyone help me on how to solve this configuration error. /john
Do you have autoconf installed on your system and in your path and is it 2.59 or later? Mike On Oct 6, 2008, at 12:41 AM, John Lum-Wah wrote:

If you install the latest dev tools from http://connect.apple.com it should work fine. /b Sent from my iPhone On Oct 6, 2008, at 12:04 AM, Michael Jerris <mike@jerris.com> wrote:
