configure: error: cannot find OpenJPEG

[Nelissen, B.G.L.]

Hi,

I want to install openslide on a university linux machine (high performance cluster, HPC) to which I have only ssh acces and no admin rights. The prefix for my installation location is /hpc/local/CentOS6/dhl_ec/. My installation of openslide fails when running a ./configure --prefix=/hpc/local/CentOS6/dhl_ec . It tells me that OpenJPEG can not be found.

checking for OPENJPEG... no
checking for OpenJPEG (fallback)... configure: error: in `/home/dhl_ec/bnelissen/src/openslide-3.4.0':
configure: error: cannot find OpenJPEG

I did install OpenJPEG succesfully (no errors during installation) using the same installation location (/hpc/local/CentOS6/dhl_ec).

Furthermore, I have no knowledge about CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS, but I have read in the same mailing list that I needed to set these. Unfortunately I have no clue on how to do this and it is still without succes.

How can I install openslide and fix my openjpeg problem?

Thanks in advance,
B Nelissen

You can point configure to your installed OpenJPEG by adding
"PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/hpc/local/CentOS6/dhl_ec/lib/pkgconfig" to the
configure command line. configure will read OpenJPEG's pkg-config file
in that directory and automatically set CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS.

Also, make sure you have OpenJPEG 1.4 or higher, but *not* OpenJPEG 2.x.

The following line fixed my openjpeg error.
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/hpc/local/CentOS6/dhl_ec/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --prefix=/hpc/local/CentOS6/dhl_ec

Thanks for your quick response!
