  • 0

I’ve just installed Ocaml on Mac OS X, and when I run the ocaml program I get a ‘Bus Error’ with no other clues to what might be going on. Can anyone offer suggestions on where to go from here?

EDIT:

I installed via the package:

http://caml.inria.fr/pub/distrib/ocaml-3.10/ocaml-3.10.2-ppc.dmg

(I have an iBook G4, so PPC is appropriate)

To run ocaml, I just typed:

ocaml 

in a terminal window

I also tried

/usr/local/bin/ocaml 

and running from an xterm window. All three give:

Bus Error 

I have Xcode and X11 installed as the README requires.
