then, i have saw that there was some paths without write permissions i have read the comments, not understand all, and try this :

SRC=/Users/thomas/c/ciao-1.8p0/ BINROOT=/Users/thomas/c/ciao-1.8p0/bin LIBROOT=/Users/thomas/c/ciao-1.8p0/lib DOCROOT=/Users/thomas/c/ciao-1.8p0/lpdoc_docs/ WEB_IMAGES_PATH=/Users/thomas/c/ciao-1.8p0/autre/ WEB_IMAGES_URL=/images/ INSTALL_PROLOG_NAME=no INSTALL_EMACS_SUPPORT=no WITH_MYSQL=no MYSQL_CLIENT_DIRECTORY=/Users/thomas/c/ciao-1.8p0/autre/ WITH_JAVA_INTERFACE=no USE_THREADS=no USE_POSIX_LOCKS=no OPTIM_LEVEL=optimized COMPRESS_LIBS=no

the compilation runs less longer !

Try the following:

* Make SRC to be /Users/thomas/c/ciao-1.8p0 (remove trailing slash). * Type:

make distclean make install

* If there is any problem, please report it to

ciao-bug(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es

so as not to clutter other users mailbox; we will summarize and post to the rest of the users.

Some more notes: the setting

WEB_IMAGES_PATH=/Users/thomas/c/ciao-1.8p0/autre/

should point to a WWW-accessible path. If you do not plan to use Ciao Prolog to produce CGIs or generate WWW pages which use the icons in $SRC/library/pillow/images, the value of WEB_IMAGES_PATH is not important. Otherwise you should set it correctly. Also,

USE_THREADS=no

does not report any real advantage. We will probably remove that flag in a future and let the compilation process to guess the correct value. Set it to "yes".
