cannot build ocaml libs
sneiman opened this issue · comments
I am failing to rebuild ocaml libs using provided instructions.
I am on the master branch, using Ubuntu 20.04, python 3.8.10, opam version 2.0.5, ocaml version 4.06.1. I am not using Singularity as it failed to install, hanging on initialization of tzdata. So, I installed in virtual environment - not conda. I did have to make some changes to requirements.txt to get everything to build as there were version inconsistencies. I removed all version references - causing installation of current versions, and install Box2D instead of Box2D-kengz.
I have successfully run training for list and text and generated some graphs. These produced good results.
I then decided to try to implement the 'demo' new domain. These errors occur on ANY attempt to build the ocaml libs - whether or not I add let primitive_increment2 = primitive "incr2" (tint @> tint) (fun x -> 2+x);; to program.ml. Here are the error messages:

any help much appreciated!
UPDATE: I can get past these issues by adding ((flags (--infer)) to the geomLib jbuild file instructions that use menhir. However this fails because it does not recognize modules Plumbing and Interpreter. Attempting to add open statements fails, claiming that open is a reserved word.
I am a jbuild/ocaml/menhir noob - any help appreciated.
Here is a fix to build singularity container on Ubuntu 20.04. It currently fails with tzdata config interaction. To fix:
In the singularity file after %post and before apt-get update ... add:
export TZ=America/Los_Angeles
ln -snf /usr/share/zoneinfo/$TZ /etc/localtime && echo $TZ > /etc/timezone**
Set TZ variable to the appropriate tzdata time zone phrase (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones). Then run the singularity build line as provided in README.doc:
sudo singularity build container.img singularity
This works on Ubuntu 20.04. Still testing whether or not you can build the ocaml libs in the container.
UDPATE:
Running in container does not fix ocaml build issues.
I tried to build the ec directory in the singularity container and faced the same issue.
Before that, a test script did not run due to JSONDecodeError in the compression part, so I attempted to recompile this.
@sneiman Did you solve the ocaml build issues?

After a couple of very painful weeks, I managed to debug this.
Recent rewrite of menhir backend made typing enforced.
I have no idea how ocaml repos are organised, but interestingly on ubuntu 18 and younger this is not an issue, as the latest menhir version is not up to date in opam.
I have fixed this by downgrading menhir with opam install menhir.20211128.
Probably far more elegant way would be to pass menhir args in ./solvers/jbuild, but, again, I know nothing about ocaml, and as far as I gathered there is no straightforward way to do it without rewriting build files with dune.
As of March 2023, I need to also pin the version of yojson, so the opam command is as follows:
opam install -y ppx_jane core re2 yojson.1.6.0 vg cairo2 camlimages menhir.20211128 ocaml-protoc zmq utop jbuilder
With this, I am able to make with no issues.
