Build fails on Linux Mint 19.3 #52

Closed amsaid1989 closed 4 years ago

I am trying to build the latest release of GafferCycles (0.18.2) with all the dependencies. I cloned the repo, built all the dependencies before the actual build. When I get to the actual build, I get the error in the following paste bin: https://pastebin.com/EnTNyYDq

Any ideas what might be causing the issue?

Hi @amsaid1989

Looks like some environment variables are not being set so it cannot find the oslc compiler.

export GAFFER_ROOT=<gaffer install path>
export GAFFERCYCLES=<install destination>
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$GAFFER_ROOT/lib

The notable ones are setting the $GAFFER_ROOT to point to where gaffer is installed (this contains the oslc compiler) and $LD_LIBRARY_PATH so that the boost library can be found which is one of the dependencies of oslc and a part of Gaffer itself.

Hope this helps

That is very strange. I had all these variables set, but I will try it again, maybe I had a typo in one of them or something. Thanks for the help, Alex. I will test and update you.

All good @amsaid1989 ? It's a bit tricky to build, feel free to re-open and I can assist.

Really sorry, Alex. Got really busy in the past couple of months and haven't managed to retry building it. Once I have some time, I will try again and reopen the issue if I am still having problems.
