What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. get a fresh svn checkout 2. run ./configure && make

several directories are missing and make thus fails to complete.

mkdir bin/pubsub mkdir bin/comm_layer mkdir bin/transstore mkdir data

fixes it. make completes now.

mkdir log

is still needed for "cd bin; ./boot.sh" to do anything useful.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

latest svn checkout, linux (ubuntu hardy, debian sid).

All these directories are included in the SVN as empty directories, as you can see, when you browse the SVN in the web-interface.

Please ensure, that your svn client also makes a checkout of empty directories

and creates them locally.
