Installing PHP 7.2.11 in CentOS 7.4 with Pthreads enabled

Installing PHP 7.2.11 in CentOS 7.4 with pthreads enabled

This steps are meant for PHP CLI threading applications.  So web related appications are not installed along with.

OS Version: CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core)

First we need to install  PHP. Version used is php-7.2.11

1. Download php-7.2.11.tar.gz source from http://php.net/get/php-7.2.11.tar.gz/from/a/mirror
2. Extract to /usr/src
 
3. cd /usr/src/php-7.2.11
4. ./configure --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/lib --with-tsrm-pthreads --enable-pthreads=shared --enable-maintainer-zts --enable-sockets
5. make
6. make test
7. make install
8. To see the php version installed
     php -v

Now we need to install Pthreads. Source is taken from Github.

1. Download from https://github.com/krakjoe/pthreads.git
2. Extract to /usr/src/php-7.2.11/ext
3. This step may not be required, but this is how it got worked for me and i didnt tried the other way.      Rename the extracted file from pthreads-master to pthreads.
      mv /usr/src/php-7.2.11/ext/pthreads-master /usr/src/php-7.2.11/ext/pthreads
4. cd /usr/src/php-7.2.11/ext/pthreads
5. phpize
6. ./configure
7. make
8. make test
9. make install

Now we require to Rebuild our PHP installation

1. cd /usr/src/php-7.2.11
2. make clean
3. rm -f configure && ./buildconf --force
4. ./configure --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/lib --with-tsrm-pthreads --enable-pthreads=shared --enable-maintainer-zts --enable-sockets
5. make
6. make test
7. make install
   At end of make install note this path
    Installing shared extensions:     /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-zts-20170718/

Next is the important and final step, to edit the configuration file (php.ini)
1. Give command -> php --ini
   Output ->
    Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /usr/local/lib
    Loaded Configuration File:         (none)
    Scan for additional .ini files in: (none)
    Additional .ini files parsed:      (none)

2. Copy file from /usr/src/php-7.2.11 to /usr/local/lib and rename the file to php.ini
    cp /usr/src/php-7.2.11/php.ini-development /usr/local/lib/php.ini

3. Give command -> php --ini
   Output ->
    Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /usr/local/lib
    Loaded Configuration File:         /usr/local/lib/php.ini
    Scan for additional .ini files in: (none)
    Additional .ini files parsed:      (none)

   Now the Configuration file is loaded

4. Add this line to /usr/local/lib/php.ini below
    extension=/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-zts-20170718/pthreads.so


5. Shows the modules loaded
     php -m

    In the loaded modules you shoud be able to see the pthreads

Steps for importing csv / text data to Postgres database table in Ubuntu / Linux

Steps for importing csv / text data to Postgres database table in Ubuntu / Linux

• If the file is too big to process in one step, cut the file into multiple files
• split -l 250000 filename.txt  // Will split the file into multiple files with 250000 lines
• In case if all columns are not required to be imported, create a new file with required number of columns. Mind the delimiter used.
• cut -d'|' -f1,3,6,33,34,35 file_name.txt >> out.txt
• Next two lines are specific to my case
• sed -e '/^[a-z,A_Z]/d' test.txt > test_1.txt  // To delete the lines which starts with a character.
• sed -i '/^$/d' file.txt   //To delete empty lines
• Copy the first line which is the column names to all the splitted file outputs, except the first file. Use "vim".
• I used a python program to delete lines which contains number of columns not equal to three.

#Python Program

fh = open('test.txt')      # Open the Original file

f = open("test_2.txt","w") # Create a new file to store the output

for line in fh:

    countLine = line.count("|")

    if countLine == 2:

       f.write(line)

fh.close()

• Create a table with requited columns. Better to give data type as character varying and size as larger than reqired for all columns (eg character varying (400))
• Copy the formatted txt / csv to postgres table. Here delimiter used is '|'.
• COPY table_name(phone_no,subscriber_name,address,pincode,place,district) FROM 'local_location/filename.txt' DELIMITER '|' CSV HEADER;
• Possible Errors
• Error telling some special characters present, so not able to copy.  /*  "UTF8": 0xbf   */
• Here i have deleted the lines with that special characters. Go this website and figure out the special character.
• https://www.utf8-chartable.de/unicode-utf8-table.pl?utf8=0x       ¿
• Using vim editor search for the special character in file and delete it manually.
• After copying the file, do the required process in the table
• --delete FROM table_name WHERE length(phone_no)!=10;
• --delete FROM table_name WHERE length(phone_no)=0;
• --delete FROM table_name WHERE phone_no is null
• --delete FROM table_name WHERE length(subscriber_name)>95;
• --delete FROM table_name WHERE length(address)>295;
• Alter the column datatype to required one
• ALTER TABLE table_name ALTER COLUMN phone_no TYPE bigint USING (phone_no::bigint);  //Column name is phone_no
• Fill unfilled column in database table with value from another column, delemited value
• update table_name set pincode = ( SELECT split_part(address, '!', 3));

• Update Column by replacing occurance of a string
• UPDATE SET = REPLACE ( , 'string1', 'string2' );

Steps for take postgres table dump and import to another Postgres database

• Login as root user
• sudo su
• Login as postgres user
• su - postgres
• Take dump of the table to file named output.sql
• pg_dump -p 5432 --column-inserts --data-only --table=table_name database_name > output.sql
• Copy output.sql to postgres/data folder of the machine where it is to be ported.
• Create table at destination with same table name and properties
• Go inside the /postgres/data folder and give this command
• psql -p 5444 -d database_name -f output.sql  
• -p is for port number
• -d for database name

Select the Channel for transmission in TinyOS, NesC

Here i have described how to change the channel for Zigbee transmission in TinyOS. Programs i have done are for TelosB mote and so the methods are applicable to the Zigbee CC2420 only. I believe for other motes the methods are more or less the same.

By default in TinyOS the channel used for CC2420 transmission is 26th channel, and it is defined in CC2420.h file. Here i have described about three methods for selecting the channel.

(1) Change the channel by Makefile

  Add this line in Makefile and enjoy.

CFLAGS += -DCC2420_DEF_CHANNEL=25

Where 25 is the required channel.

(2) Change the channel dynamically in NesC programming

  Use the command CC2420Config.setChannel() in interface "CC2420Config", which is provided by the component "CC2420ControlC". Sample program is given below.

Configuration

configuration ChannelAppC {
}

implementation {
  components ChannelC;
  components MainC;
  components LedsC;
  components new TimerMilliC() as Timer;
  components CC2420ControlC;  //Component for Channel selection

  ChannelC.Boot -> MainC;
  ChannelC.Led  -> LedsC.Leds;
  ChannelC.Timer -> Timer;

  components ActiveMessageC;
  components new AMSenderC(6);

  ChannelC.SplitControl -> ActiveMessageC;
  ChannelC.Packet    -> AMSenderC;
  ChannelC.AMPacket  -> AMSenderC;
  ChannelC.AMSend    -> AMSenderC;

  ChannelC.CC2420Config -> CC2420ControlC; //Wiring for Channel selection
}

Module

#include "printf.h"

module ChannelC {
  uses interface Boot;
  uses interface Leds as Led;
  uses interface Timer;

  uses interface SplitControl;
  uses interface Packet;
  uses interface AMPacket;
  uses interface AMSend; 
  uses interface CC2420Config;
}

implementation {

  enum {
    AM_SIZE = 6,
  };

  typedef nx_struct MessageDef {
    nx_uint16_t counter;
  } MessageDef;

  uint16_t counter = 0;
  bool busy = FALSE;
  message_t pkt;
  uint8_t len;
  uint8_t channel;
  
  event void Boot.booted() {
    call SplitControl.start();
  }

  event void SplitControl.startDone(error_t err) {
    call CC2420Config.setChannel(25);
    call CC2420Config.sync();
    call Timer.startPeriodic(500);
  }

  event void Timer.fired() {
    MessageDef* ptrpkt = (MessageDef*)(call Packet.getPayload(&pkt, len));
    counter++;
    call Led.led0Toggle();
    ptrpkt -> counter = counter;
    if (!busy) {
      if (call AMSend.send(AM_BROADCAST_ADDR, &pkt, sizeof(MessageDef)) == SUCCESS) busy = TRUE;
    }
  }

  event void AMSend.sendDone(message_t* msg, error_t error) {
    if (&pkt == msg) {
      busy = FALSE;
      call Led.led1Toggle();
      channel = call CC2420Config.getChannel();
      printf("Channel : %d\n", channel);
      printf("Counter = %d\n\n",counter);
      printfflush();
    }
  }
  
  event void SplitControl.stopDone(error_t err) {
  }
  event void CC2420Config.syncDone( error_t error ) {
  }
}

(3) Change the channel in the TinyOS source

By default CC2420 is using 26th channel for transmission and it is defined in CC2420.h header file in /opt/tinyos-2.x/tos/chips/cc2420/. So by editing that header file and recompiling the program will change the channel. Edit the below given line

#ifndef CC2420_DEF_CHANNEL
#define CC2420_DEF_CHANNEL 25
#endif

 Where 25 is the required channel.

GIO Input and Output of TelosB

This program can be used as a reference for the usage of General Input Output pin(GIO) of TelosB. Here i a have used the GIO output of TelosB to connect a buzzer and trigger it in every 2 seconds, making it on and off.

General input/output pin details of TelosB is given below.

GIO No.	TeloB Pin out	MSP430 processor Pin out	Note
GIO-0	10 (10 pin connector)	20	Have to short R16 in TelosB
GIO-1	7 (10 pin connector)	21	Have to short R14 in TelosB
GIO-2	3 (6 pin connector)	23
GIO-3	4 (6 pin connector)	26

In my program i have used GIO3 and hence i have connected the positive of buzzer to 4th pin of 6 pin expansion connector and negative to Gnd of TelosB.

This is the configuration for the application.

configuration BuzzerAppC {
}

implementation{
   components BuzzerC, MainC;
   components HplMsp430GeneralIOC;
   components BusyWaitMicroC;
   components new TimerMilliC() as Timer;
   components LedsC;

   BuzzerC.Boot -> MainC.Boot;
   //BuzzerC.indication2 -> HplMsp430GeneralIOC.Port23; For input
   BuzzerC.indication3 -> HplMsp430GeneralIOC.Port26; 
   BuzzerC.Timer -> Timer;
   BuzzerC.delay -> BusyWaitMicroC;
   BuzzerC.Leds -> LedsC;
}

This is the module for the application.

module BuzzerC{
   uses interface Boot;
   uses interface HplMsp430GeneralIO as indication3;
   uses interface BusyWait as delay;
   uses interface Timer as Timer;
   uses interface Leds;
}

implementation{
  uint16_t value;
  uint16_t i;
  event void Boot.booted() {
    call Timer.startPeriodic(2000);
  }
  event void Timer.fired() {
    call Leds.led0Toggle();
    call indication3.makeOutput();
    call indication3.set();
    for (i=0;i<100;i++) {
      call delay.wait(10000);
    }
    call indication3.clr();
    for (i=0;i<100;i++) {
      call delay.wait(10000);
    }
  }  
}

Calculate execution time of code in TinyOS

Here i have used the interface "LocalTime" and component "LocalTimeMilliC" for calculating the execution time.

This is the Configuration for calculating the execution time. Here i have given a sample code and it is not complete in sense of a complete application.

configuration TMP102AppC {
}
implementation {
  components LocalTimeMilliC, TMP102C as App;
  App.LocalTime -> LocalTimeMilliC; 

 ---Other Configurations---
}

This is the module for the application.

#include "printf.h"

module TMP102C {
   uses interface LocalTime <tmilli>;
     ---Other Interfaces---
}

implementation {
uint32_t start_time;
uint32_t stop_time;

 ---Other Code---

start_time = call LocalTime.get();  // Put this line where you want to start count.
   
---Other Code---

 stop_time = call LocalTime.get();  // Put this line where you want to stop count.
 printf("Execution Time = %d\n",(stop_time-start_time));  //Print the execution time.
    
}

Networking concepts

Hub, Repeater, Switch, Bridge, Router and Gateway

   Major differences between different networking devices are mentioned in this table.

Network Devices	OSI layer corresponds to the Device	Functions
Hub	Physical	Multiport repeater. Any electrical signal that comes into one port, goes out of all other ports. Does not examine or manage traffic.
Repeater	Physical	Regenerates the signal. Connects two segments of a network cable. Extends physical length of network. Is a re-generator not an amplifier. Active hubs.
Switch	Data link	Connects n/w segments or n/w devices. Is a multipoint network bridge(bridge with numerous o/p ports). Process and routes data to the intended receiver. Intelligent than hub. Multilayer switch works on Data link and Network layer. Reduces traffic and divide the collision domain into segments. Uses MAC address for communication.
Bridge	Data link	A combination of hardware and software to link two similar networks. Divides a large network to smaller segments. Very much alike switch. Does data filtering and separating the collision domain like switch. Slower compared to switch since it uses s/w for switching. Controls congestion and isolation. Uses MAC address for communication.
Router	Network	Route data packets between different networks of same type. Can connect networks with different architecture like Token Ring and Ethernet. Cannot connect networks of different protocols like TCP/IP and IPX/SPX. Controls both collision domains and broadcast domains. Uses IP address for communication. Ability to identify best route for the packet to travel using a routing table.
Gateway	Application, Network, Session	Interconnects networks with different network protocol technologies by performing the required protocol conversions. Very intelligent device Works at network layer and above, but mostly work at application layer. Mostly it is a software installed in router.

Multiple sensors interfacing to Telosb through I2C connection

   Here i have interfaced two sensors, accelerometer and temperature sensor with Telosb mote using parallel I2C connection. Zigbee part is also integrated with the program.

TMP102 VCC    -> TELOSB 1 pin (VCC)
TMP102 SDA    -> TELOSB 8 pin (SDA)
TMP102 SCL    -> TELOSB 6 pin (SCL)
TMP102 ADD0 -> TELOSB 9 pin (GND)
TMP102 ALT    -> Left unconnected

ADXL345 GND -> TELOSB 9 pin (GND)
ADXL345 VCC  -> TELOSB 1 pin (VCC)
ADXL345 CS     -> TELOSB 1 pin (VCC)
ADXL345 SDA  -> TELOSB 8 pin (SDA)
ADXL345 SCL  -> TELOSB 6 pin  (SCL)

Certain Simple C Concepts

C Preprocessor Directives

    C Preprocessor is a separate program invoked by the compiler as first part of the compilation. It includes the directives for source file inclusion (ie #include), macro definition (#define) and conditional inclusion (ie #if).

    Preprocessor directives starts with a "#" sign, and that statement will be executed prior to the actual compilation of the code.

  (1) Source code inclusion

    #include Directive
      Preprocessor will replace the #include directive by entire content of the specified file.
     If the file name is enclosed in angle brackets, compiler will search the file in standard directories where it is configured to search.

 #include < stdio.h> 

     If the file name is enclosed in single quotes, compiler will search the file first in current directory and then if not found search in standard directories.

 #include "Timer.h" 

     Inorder to search in directories other than standard directories, use -I flag in the Makefile.

 CFLAGS += -I$(TOSDIR)/lib/printf

  (2) Macro definition 

    "#define" Directive

       #define Directive Defines the processor to replace all subsequent occurrence of a macro with a specific token.

 #define ADXL345_DEVID 0x00 

     The above example causes the preprocessor to replace the subsequent occurrence of the identifier "ADXL345_DEVID" with constant hex value 0x00.

     "#undef"Directive
        Defines macros are not affected by the block structure of C. A macro once defined will last until a "#undef" directive for that particular token. After undefining you can again redefine that token.

 #define ADXL345_DEVID 0x00 
 #undef ADXL345_DEVID 
 #define ADXL345_DEVID 0x01 

  (3) Conditional Inclusions

         Allows to include or discard certain code based on some conditions.

       #ifdef

 #ifdef NUM
 int amount [NUM];
 #endif

        Here the middle line will be compiled only if the NUM variable is already defined with #define.

        #ifndef

 #ifndef NUM
 #define NUM 46
 int amount [NUM];
 #endif

        Here the NUM variable will be defined only if it is not previously defined.

       #if, #else, #elif

 #if NUM>100
 #undef NUM
 #define NUM 100
 
 #elif NUM<50
 #undef NUM
 #define NUM 50

 #else
 #undef NUM
 #define NUM 200
 #endif 

       Here depending on certain condition the code is compiled.

Race condition

   Usually occurs in threaded programs. When two or more threads try to access same resource and change its value at same time, race condition occurs. Inorder to avoid this condition put a lock around the variable before using.

Printing in C

     To print the remainder

Use % for printing remainder of a division operation.

printf("%d",564%10);

rvalue Vs lvalue

   rvalue: rvalue of a variable is the value stored in that variable.
   lvalue: lvalue of a variable is the value of its address (where it is stored).

j=6;
k=j;

   Here in first line 'j' is at the left side of the equation and it denotes the address to which value 6 is to be copied. In the second line 'j' is at the right side of the equation and it denotes the value stored in 'j' to be copied to the address denoted by 'k'.

Function Pointer

   Declaring function pointer

      "ptFunction" is the function pointer declared and initialized to Null value.

int (*pt2Function)(float, char, char) = NULL; 

   Defining function pointer

      "ptFunction" is initialized to "DoIt" function whose definition is given below

ptFunction = DoIt;        // short form
ptFunction = &DoIt;   // correct assignment using address operator

void DoIt(float a, char b, char c) { }

   Comparing function pointer 

      This checks whether the  "ptFunction" is defined or not.

if(ptFunction >0) { }

   Calling function using function pointer 

       Both the methods will work.

int result1 = ptFunction(12, 'a', 'b'); 
int result2 = (*ptFunction) (12, 'a', 'b');

   Pass function pointer as argument 

       Both the function call and the function definition are given below.

PassPtr(&DoIt);  //Call the function

void PassPtr(int (*pt2Func)(float, char, char)) { } // Definition for the called function

Enumerations (enum)

   It is a set of named integer constants. Is defined like structures.

   Enum definition

enum coin {penny, dollar, paisa=15, dime, quater}

   Each of the enum symbol stands for an integer value starting from 0.

   Printing the values

printf("%d %d %d %d %d\n",penny,dollar,paisa,dime,quater);

   Here penny=0, dollar=1, paisa=15, dime=16 and quater=17.

   Declare variable

enum coin money;

   "money" is an object of type coin. 

   Initialize the variable

money = paisa;

   "money" is initialized to value "paisa". Printing money will print value 15.

NesC programming concepts.

Components

   Two kinds of components.

1. Singletons components

    Only one instant can exist. Renaming not possible.

configuration MainC {
}//  Singletons components module
components MainC; //Instantiating a Singletons component.

2. Generic components

    Can have multiple instants.

generic configuration TimerMilliC() {

 }   //  Generic components module

 //Instantiating a Generic component and renaming it.
 components new TimerMilliC() as TimerAccel;

 //Instantiating a Generic component without renaming.
 components new TimerMilliC(); 

Data types

uint8_t  :   Unsigned 8 bit integer.
uint16_t  :   Unsigned 16 bit integer.
uint32_t  :   Unsigned 32 bit integer.

uint8_t var1 =250;
printf("Value1 = %u", var1);
 
uint16_t var2 =65000;
printf("Value2 = %u", var2);

uint32_t var3 =4294960000;
printf("Value3 = %lu", var3);
 

Printf

   In NesC "printf" library will provides the terminal printing functionality for motes connected to PC through serial interface.

For using printf() in your NesC program:
  1. Include "printf.h" header in the component where it is being used.

#include "printf.h"

  2. Give path for the printf library in Makefile.
        CFLAGS += -I$(TOSDIR)/lib/printf   where $TOSDIR=/opt/tinyos-2.x/tos

COMPONENT=PrintfAppC
CFLAGS += -I$(TOSDIR)/lib/printf
include $(MAKERULES) 

 3. For explicit flushing of the printf output use the function printfflush().

printfflush(); 

  4. Default buffer size for the printf is 250 bytes as defined in the printf.h library in /opt/tinyos-2.x/tos/lib/printf/2_0_2/. For changing the buffer size edit the Makefile.

CFLAGS += -DPRINTF_BUFFER_SIZE={NEW_SIZE} 

Adding libraries or drivers in "Makefile" 

1. For adding libraries or drivers into your NesC program, add this line in your Makefile.

 CFLAGS += -I${PATH_OF_LIBRARY} 

2. If you want to add more than one library files, this line can be used repeatedly.
COMPONENT=PrintfAppC

CFLAGS += -I$(TOSDIR)/lib/printf
CFLAGS += -I$(TOSDIR)/chips/adxl345
include $(MAKERULES)

Commands and Events

   In NesC communication between two components are possible by using the interfaces. An interface will be provided by the provider component and used by the used component.
The user component make use of an interface provided by provider component, by making request (calls commands) to provider component. The provider component will make callbacks (signals events) as response to the user component.

  Commands
    Set of functions to be defined and implemented by interface's provider.

 return call Timer.startPeriodic(1000); //Call for the function Timer to start.

  Events
    Set of functions to be defined by interface's provider and implemented by interface's user.

 event result_t Timer.fired() {
} // Event is signaled once the Timer is fired 

"SplitControl" Interface

   This interface is used for switching between ON and OFF power states of the component providing it. If the command returns SUCCESS then corresponding startDone() or stopDone() event must be signalled.

SplitControl is similar to StdControl. StdControl is single-phase with only commands, while SplitControl is split-phase with commands and command completion events.

    Commands

 command error_t start()  // Start this component and all its subcomponents.
 command error_t stop()  //  Start this component and all its subcomponents. 

    Events

 event void startDone(error_t error) // Notify caller that component is 
  started and ready to receive other commands.
 event void stopDone(error_t error) // Notify caller that component has
  been stopped.

Task

   Task is a light weight procedure call. It can be posted at any time and posted task are executed later, one at a time by the TinyOS scheduler. A Task has following features.
    Has return value of void
    Takes no parameters
    Declared with task keyword.
    Task can be called by post operator.
    Posting task will always return success unless the task is pending.

Task declaration

 task void sendEvent1(); 

Task definition

 task void sendEvent1() {
 } 

Post a task

post sendEvent1();

Platform independent Data types

   Tinyos introduces platform independent data format that can be easily accessed and used. Usage of nx_ prefix or nxle_prefix on keywords such as struct and uint16_t or unint32_t means that they are external types, which have same representation on all hardware platforms.

typedef nx_struct BlinkToRadio{
   nx_uint16_t nodeid;            // Big endian 16 bit value
   nxle_uint8_t length;            // Little endian 8 bit value
}

Errors

(1) Error while compiling the TestSerial application for serial communication.

/apps/tests/TestSerial# make telosb

mkdir -p build/telosb
mig java -target=null -I/opt/tinyos-2.x/tos/lib/T2Hack
-DIDENT_APPNAME=\"TestSerialAppC\" -DIDENT_USERNAME=\"root\"
-DIDENT_HOSTNAME=\"ubuntu\" -DIDENT_USERHASH=0xa3473ba6L
-DIDENT_TIMESTAMP=0x4f634feeL -DIDENT_UIDHASH=0x185584f2L -java-
classname=TestSerialMsg TestSerial.h test_serial_msg -o TestSerialMsg.java
two source files specified (PLATFORM_NULL and IDENT_APPNAME="TestSerialAppC")
failed to parse message file TestSerial.h

make: *** [TestSerialMsg.java] Error 1 

Solution:

  Couldn't solve the issue. It seems  the issue is with the ubuntu version 11.10. I solved the issue by switching back to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS version.

(2) Error with the java files.

        java net.tinyos.tools.Listen -comm serial@/dev/ttyUSB0:telosb

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/tinyos/tools/Listen

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: net.tinyos.tools.Listen
    at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202)
    at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)

    at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247)
Could not find the main class: net.tinyos.tools.Listen.  Program will exit.

Solution:

  1. Download of whole "java" as tarball from Tiny OS CVS repository.
      http://tinyos.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tinyos/tinyos-2.x/support/sdk/java/
  2. Replace the "java" file from /opt/tinyos-2.x/support/sdk/ with the extracted java file, from the downloaded tarball file.
  3. Go inside the java folder in terminal and give "make" command.
  4. Enjoy.

(3) Error in installing rpm packages.

rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps msp430tools-base-0.1-20050607.i386.rpm

rpm: please use alien to install rpm packages on Debian, if you are really sure use --force-debian switch. See README.Debian for more details.

Solution:
  Use this command instead.

rpm -Uvh --force-debian --nodeps msp430tools-base-0.1-20050607.i386.rpm

(3) Error in "make "

make telosb
make: *** No rule to make target `telosb'.  Stop.

Solution:

This is because you have done the installation as root user and trying to "make" as a different user.

Solve this by doing "make" as root user or give proper permission for that particular user.

sudo chown prasanth:prasanth -R /opt/tinyos-2.x/
