[ome-devel] Problem using boost for omero server tests

[Ingvar Lagerstedt]

Hi Josh,

I updated to rev 5527 and repeated the sequence:
./build_py clean
./build_py build-all
./build_py test-unit

and this time the tests run.  I did not see any issues in build log, that
all looks good now.

Several tests fail.  Some due to the fact that I have not figured out how
to open port 4063 on my Mac OS X 10.5.8.  The way how port opening works
changed for 10.5, so that you no longer open a dedicated port, instead you
are supposed to allow applications.  I have yet to find any instructions
on how to do this.

I thought that having
/etc/services list port 4063 as an Ice Firewall Traversal Router
together with that the local firewall on the machine is set to allow all
incoming connections
would be enough.

The error message I get related to port 4063 is (the whole log for the
unit tests is attached):
...
