You said: > [@honeyxdyj](#): > > I try to install the pbs, when I build the rmp packages, encounter an issue, the error info like below: Are you trying to install rpm packages that you built yourself? If so, what configure options did you use? What platform are you trying to build on (“uname -a”, “cat /etc/_release_”)? What was the exact command you ran that led to that make error? If you are actually building from 14.1 source rather than the master branch (to get all of the latest check-ins) on Centos 7 or OpenSUSE 13, then why not use the prebuilt rpm packages at [http://pbspro.org/Download.aspx#download](http://pbspro.org/Download.aspx#download) ? ---

Here’s the link to the released 14.1 source code bundle: [https://github.com/PBSPro/pbspro/archive/v14.1.0.tar.gz](https://github.com/PBSPro/pbspro/archive/v14.1.0.tar.gz) It’s very important that you use this source code. ---

Thanks very much for your replying,scc. I’ve already tried the master branch, it countered the same error, so I tried the release\_14\_1\_branch again… I follow the instructions here “[https://pbspro.atlassian.net/wiki/display/PBSPro/Building+PBS+Pro+Using+rpmbuild”](https://pbspro.atlassian.net/wiki/display/PBSPro/Building+PBS+Pro+Using+rpmbuild%E2%80%9D) The platform is CentOS7, the sys info like this: > [root@centos-master etc]# uname -a > Linux centos-master.novalocal 3.10.0-327.22.2.el7.x86\_64 #1 SMP Thu Jun 23 17:05:11 UTC 2016 x86\_64 x86\_64 x86\_64 GNU/Linux > > [root@centos-master etc]# cat /etc/os-release > NAME=“CentOS Linux” > VERSION=“7 (Core)” > ID=“centos” > ID\_LIKE=“rhel fedora” > VERSION\_ID=“7” > PRETTY\_NAME=“CentOS Linux 7 (Core)” > ANSI\_COLOR=“0;31” > CPE\_NAME=“cpe:/o:centos:centos:7” > HOME\_URL=“[https://www.centos.org/](https://www.centos.org/)” > BUG\_REPORT\_URL=“[https://bugs.centos.org/](https://bugs.centos.org/)” > > CENTOS\_MANTISBT\_PROJECT=“CentOS-7” > CENTOS\_MANTISBT\_PROJECT\_VERSION=“7” > REDHAT\_SUPPORT\_PRODUCT=“centos” > REDHAT\_SUPPORT\_PRODUCT\_VERSION=“7”
