snailbrain 133 Posted July 26, 2018 Building XAYA: on 18.04 (and probably earlier) open a terminal : make sure everything is up to date sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade install dependencies sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool autotools-dev automake pkg-config libssl-dev libevent-dev bsdmainutils python3 libboost-system-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-chrono-dev libboost-test-dev libboost-thread-dev also install berklydb 4.8 - easiest way is via bitcoin repository sudo apt-get install software-properties-common sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin (if it comes up with a warning press enter to continue) sudo apt-get update install db4.8 + more stuff sudo apt-get install git libdb4.8-dev libdb4.8++-dev libminiupnpc-dev libzmq3-dev libqt5gui5 libqt5core5a libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler libqrencode-dev libboost-program-options-dev git clone https://github.com/xaya/xaya cd xaya git checkout 1.3 ./autogen.sh ./configure here you can add -jX where x is the number of cores on your computer, this speeds up building. make -j2 sudo make install you will now be able to run the binaries from any folder by just typing in a terminal. To run XAYA QT : xaya-qt or you can run the daemon or use the cli with xaya-cli xayad tested working on a fresh ubuntu 18.04 in a VM 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Marsden 2 Posted July 31, 2018 I can confirm that this all worked perfectly on my not so fresh Ubuntu 18.04 installation. Thanks, again! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 302 Posted August 2, 2018 Everything worked brilliantly. Perfectly smooth. (I had to set up an Ubuntu wallet simply to test something for a support request.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
casp0or 75 Posted October 21, 2018 Hi, nice guide, but it does not save the cookie file ... I tryed everything, the generator from /share/... even with config file setting rpcusername and rpcpassword If I try with the rpcauth from generator I can see a "using invalid password" message in the logs ... same with rpcuser and pw -.- Linux Ubuntu 16.04 QT working fine and xayad too I think I miss something Regards casp0or Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snailbrain 133 Posted October 22, 2018 i think for the cookie file to be generated you need to run the Qt with -server the datadir should be in ~/.xaya/ or /home/<user>/.xaya/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarkClaw 118 Posted November 7, 2018 This worked for me on linux mint 19. It failed at first when I tried using other than make -j2 though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
