Hi All,

I am trying to implement FRED as test in a Ubuntu Server, but I am having many problems.

I am following the instructions as described in the link below:

http://fred.nic.cz/wiki/howto

After installing fred server I am trying to install fred-server python component but I get the following errors:

user@nsx:~/fred/fred-pyfred-2.1.2$ python setup.py build_idl
usage: setup.py [global_opts] cmd1 [cmd1_opts] [cmd2 [cmd2_opts] ...]
   or: setup.py --help [cmd1 cmd2 ...]
   or: setup.py --help-commands
   or: setup.py cmd --help

error: invalid command 'build_idl'
user@nsx:~/fred/fred-pyfred-2.1.2$

My first question is for the instructions in the link above, they seems to be old (fred 1.6.2 - I have downloaded fred 2.1.2). In the last step:
Create initial configuration

# mkdir /etc/fred
# cp server.conf.example /etc/fred/server.conf

I couldn't find any server.conf.example just server.conf and server.conf.in???
Is there any updated instructions and can I have them so I can try again step by step the implementation.

or is there any mistake made by me during the implementations step till this point, which gives me this errors??

Another thing:
when installing fred server it didn't work the command: ./configure --prefix=/usr && make because could not find the idl so I used the command:
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-idldir=/usr/share/idl/fred/idl && make

because the idl dir was not /usr/share/idl/fred but /usr/share/idl/fred/idl

can I have some instructions for implementations of fred-2.1.2 please because to me those instructions looks old??

Thanks

Adriatik
