Unable to start router if JIT sharing support is enabled about gns3-server HOT 3 CLOSED

please notice that this is the same as it was happening on gns3-gui issue 8 , report which was prematurely closed : GNS3/gns3-gui#8

from gns3-server.

Ok, I know why. This JIT sharing option should not be available because it is only supported in the unstable version of GNS3 (you can compile Dynamips as stable or unstable, basically unstable includes JIT sharing and some optimizations for OSX).

From the Dynamips hypervisor documentation:
https://github.com/GNS3/dynamips/blob/master/README.hypervisor

"vm set_tsg <instance_name> <group_id>" : Set translation sharing group.
  (since version 0.2.8-RC3-community, unstable)

from gns3-server.

thanks for the info. indeed my dynamips is compiled out from the "stable" code.

according to GNS3, that feature is available from dynamips 0.2.8 RC2 without any particular reference to the stable or unstable nature. Also on GNS3 0.8.6 (with dynamips 0.2.12 as well, but x86 this time...) , enabling that feature doesn't create any problem.

If indeed the JIT feature exist only on the unstable version, i would suggest to add a warning next to the check box , or to check if we are running a compatible version.
