    For what it's worth, I tried installing the 'js115' package from my repository, and building Synchronet still tries to use 1.8.5 from the repo.

    Then realized I had to at least try the JSLIB=/usr/lib/libmozjs-115.so in my make line, and I got a fatal error right away:

    ```
    In file included from terminal.h:4,
    from ansi_terminal.h:6,
    from ansi_terminal.cpp:1:
    sbbs.h:101:10: fatal error: jsversion.h: No such file or directory
    101 | #include <jsversion.h>
    | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
    compilation terminated.
    make: *** [/home/axisd/sbbs/repo/src/sbbs3/../build/Common.gmake:568: gcc.linux.x64.obj.debug-mt/ansi_terminal.o] Error 1
    ```

    So, probably not a great idea to continue with this as I honestly don't know what I'm doing trying to link to other libraries outside of Synchronet, and don't want to mess anything more up.

    I've already run a 'make clean' at some point and lost my executables, so sbbsecho and whatever else won't run any more. 'sbbs' is still running as a process but I'm sure that'll go down eventually, too.

    And you set JSINCLUDE right?

    Yes:

    JSLIB=/use/lib/libmozjs-115.so JSINCLUDE=/usr/include/mozjs-115 as it wanted a directory.

    As Nigel eluded too, it sounds like you pointed sbbs to link to another libmozjs, but didn't point to another libmozjs include (header file) directory.

    That said, libmozjs 115 is *not* going to work with current Synchronet source. It *has* to be v1.8.5 (or a fork of it).

    There was no eluding. I answered him probably while you were writing your message.

    Your original message on this issue was "You can try using a system libmozjs instead (if you can/have one installed)", so that's what I tried to do, since libmozjs 115 is the only one that is currently offered in the system's package manager.

    Thanks for the heads up that it won't work, I can stop what I'm doing..

    You could try using pre-built x64 binaries available for download off Vertrauen.

    You can also build other targets (skipping sbbs), if you want to build sbbsecho or anything else, from source, in the mean time.
    ```
    $ make gcc.linux.x64.exe.debug/sbbsecho
    ```

    Oh, thanks for that info! At least I can try get things back to normal and just hope I don't have a power outage or anything causing sbbs to stop. ;)

    I may have missed but which OS and architecture are you trying to build for? --- SBBSecho 3.29-Linux
