Cannot install Kayak

– Please Write here your help request, –
Hello,

I seem to be having an issue when installing Kayak as it did not install with Parrot 5. I keep getting the following error when using ‘make clean’ and ‘make’ according to the instructions I have found online:
Error:
compilation terminated.
./state_control.c:3:10: fatal error: config.h: No such file or directory
3 | #include “config.h”
| ^~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make: *** [Makefile:32: socketcand] Error 1


  • Parrot version in use (if you are not aware of it, open terminal and type cat /etc/os-release | grep VERSION):
    VERSION_ID=“5.0”
    VERSION=“5.0 (Electro Ara)”
    VERSION_CODENAME=ara

  • Logs/Terminal output (use pastebin or similar services):
    compilation terminated.
    ./state_control.c:3:10: fatal error: config.h: No such file or directory
    3 | #include “config.h”
    | ^~~~~~~~~~
    compilation terminated.
    make: *** [Makefile:32: socketcand] Error 1

  • Screenshots:

can you provide the link to the project website?

did you run ./configure before that?

Open your terminal to run the following commands to install Kayak:

git clone git://github.com/dschanoeh/Kayak
mvn clean package

git clone GitHub - linux-can/socketcand: Server to access CAN sockets over ASCII protocol
cd socketcand
autoconf
./configure
make clean
make
sudo make install

um, I see the link has been “changed” to “website name” (not sure what it’s called), so it won’t work

it should be:

git clone git://github.com/dschanoeh/Kayak
mvn clean package

git clone https://github.com/linux-can/socketcand.git
cd socketcand
autoconf
./configure
make clean
make
sudo make install

Thank you everybody. I’m running into an issue now where “mvn” is not found in bash, is there something I need to install to get that to work?

it Maven (never heard of it)
you can install with sudo apt install -y maven
