Multichain build error

Question

I got following error when I try to build Multichain from its Github repository.

 

chainparams/chainparams.cpp: In constructor ‘CMainParams::CMainParams()’:
chainparams/chainparams.cpp:176:51: error: ambiguous overload for ‘operator=’ (operand types are ‘std::vector<unsigned char>’ and ‘boost::assign_detail::generic_list<int>’)
         base58Prefixes[PUBKEY_ADDRESS] = list_of(0);
                                                   ^
In file included from /usr/include/c++/6/vector:69:0,
                 from ./chainparams/chainparamsbase.h:10,
                 from ./chainparams/chainparams.h:10,
                 from chainparams/chainparams.cpp:7:

 

 

I can't figure out how to fix this.

Which operating system and compuler are you using (including versions)?

---

Ubuntu 17.04 on x86_64

Thanks - we'll look into this.

Boost version is 1.62 and Multichain is beta 1.0

Answer 1

We can't currently provide support for compiling on this Ubuntu version, but the problem is most likely to be with the Boost library. Please try compiling with Boost 1.5.8.

I tried with Boost 1.58 but still got the same error message.
seems like Multichain does not support 17.04 Ubuntu.

It's true, I got solution with boost@1.5.7
