I don't understand why I was able to compile on Digital Ocean vps but not Vultr and i did the same steps.

Different distributions of Linux uses different versions of boost. Try Ubuntu 14.04.

Or try the patch included below for 16.04:

Thanks guys. I tried Rolihlahla's advice and it worked. I noticed that it seems to have problems with boost 1.58 or above. Confirmed looking a the patch file mr. graham posted.

So I think this should work too if you uninstall boost 1.58+ and install boost 1.54.

1. Check your boost version

Code:

dpkg -s libboost-dev | grep 'Version'

2. Uninstall boost 1.58 or greater

Code:

sudo apt-get --purge remove libboost-dev
sudo apt-get --purge remove libboost-all-dev

3. Get boost 1.54 and install

Code:

wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.54.0/boost_1_54_0.tar.gz
tar -xvf boost_1_54_0.tar.gz
cd boost_1_54_0
sudo su
./bootstrap.sh
./bjam install

Redo the ./configure and should be able to compile now. Anyone can see any potential problems in doing it this way? Probably mr. graham's way is better for updated dev env, but the instability... I will keep a 14.04 version and do another 16.04 version see if I can notice any differences.
