Gearman on Dreamhack

[anarres]

Has anyone got any hints on getting Gearman working on a Dreamhack? I keep getting this: '[Error: Unable to get gearman client. @ hack.dreamwidth.net]'

Thanks! I copied gearmand into ~/dw/bin and attempted to do all this:

$ perl Makefile.PL
$ make
$ make test
$ make install

But I got this:

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ERROR: Can't create '/usr/local/bin'
Do not have write permissions on '/usr/local/bin'
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so I had a look and there is a /usr/local/bin/gearmand, but clearly this isn't the *right* gearmand for it to look at, I want it to look at the one in ~/dw/bin instead..

Hmm, the error message I get has changed, from 'Unable to get gearman client'to 'Unable to insert Gearman job.'

Oh hang on, I think that error might be due to the script I'm running and not due to Gearman itself.

Yeah, there was an option to tell it where to install, the default location being /usr/local/ - I think this is what I did:

perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=$HOME/dw
