Can not build on Ubuntu 18.04 about aerospike-server

[psi-mankoski]

Hello. The current Aerospike Server CE 4.6.0.2 source builds fine for us under Ubuntu 18.04.
Some questions:
1). Have you made sure to pull the submodules? ("git submodule update --init")?
2). Have you checked that you have installed all of the tool chain and library dependencies listed in the "README.md"?
3). If it still doesn't build for you, could you please send a detailed build log showing the commands used and the failure?
Thanks.

Hi @psi-mankoski,
I'm getting error while I'm trying to do make tar or make deb. Could you help me with that

Hello. Did you do a "make" (with no arguments) first? The "make tar" / "make deb" / etc., targets are just packaging options, and they all only work after the basic "make" has completed successfully. It seems the "No such file..." error on the "bin/asd" executable means the basic build is not complete. If you encounter any errors doing that initial "make", please send them and I'll recommend how to proceed. Thanks.

Thanks, @psi-mankoski you were right, now everything is working
