Compiling OTXSERVER by FeTads on Ubuntu

Compilação do OTX Server

Recommendations

• Recommended to use Ubuntu 20 for compilation.

Installation of Required Packages

To install the required packages, open a terminal and paste the following commands:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y

sudo apt-get install -y unzip zip gdb screen htop autoconf build-essential pkg-config libboost-dev libgmp3-dev libxml2-dev sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev libtcmalloc-minimal4 liblua5.1 libmysqlclient-dev ccache libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-regex-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-thread-dev libboost-iostreams-dev

sudo apt-get install expect

ps: you need to install expect to use the anti rollback restarter
(ps2: on debian 8+, you must enable backports, or better yet, replace libmysqlclient-dev with libmariadbclient-dev-compat)

Compiling

Download sources - Launch a terminal, and paste in this command:

for OTX by FeTads:

git clone https://github.com/FeTads/otxserver

After downloading the sources, enter the corresponding directory in your machine(the one with the .h and .cpp files), by default OTX is set to compile using MYSQL, if you want to use SQLITE you'll have to open the Makefile and change there. After everything is as you please, just type this in the terminal:

make -j $(nproc)

where $(nproc) is the amount of cores that the system will use to compile the sources. If you have a system with 4 cores, it should be like this:

make -j 4

If you are using UBUNTU 16 and the compillation fails with an error about the libtcmalloc-minimal4 not being found(g++: error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4: No such file or directory) just open the Makefile inside the sources folder, look for '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4' and change it to the correct path.(it may vary based on your operational system, for UBUNTU 16 the correct one is /usr/lib/libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4)
