No rule to make target 'led-image-viewer' #135

Closed luchadorman closed 8 years ago

luchadorman commented 8 years ago

When I run this, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libgraphicsmagick++-dev libwebp-dev && make led-image-viewer

It ends with make: ***No rule to make target 'led-image-viewer'. Stop.

I'm realllllllly trying to get this running to put on my graduation cap tomorrow and would love some help!

hzeller commented 8 years ago

In which directory are you in ? You compile this at the toplevel directory,

luchadorman commented 8 years ago

I am in ~/rpi-rgb-led-matrix-master

Is that correct?

hzeller commented 8 years ago

Yes, that is perfect. If it doesn't work, then you have the wrong repository :) Make sure to get things here: https://github.com/hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix

luchadorman commented 8 years ago

Is there anyway for me to check the repository? I was following that documentation during installation.

luchadorman commented 8 years ago

I am very low level on skills for a project such as this.

hzeller commented 8 years ago

If you checked out this repository, you're good and it should work. If you got the repository from somewhere else (e.g. Adafruit), it won't work.

luchadorman commented 8 years ago

I did follow this adafruit tutorial

Do you know what I would need to do differently to run this one instead?

hzeller commented 8 years ago

Do not follow the Adafruit tutorial. They point to their fork of this tutorial, which is ancient and does not have the image viewer for instance.

You are filing issues for this repository, so you should as well check out this library: https://github.com/hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix.git

Then follow the README. If you have an Adafruit HAT, look in the section "If you have an Adafruit HAT" what to edit in the Makefile to make it work with that hardware.

luchadorman commented 8 years ago

Ok! I will do that and check the adafruit hat section.

Thank you for your help, I will comment here if I have anymore issues!

I just cleared out my previous files and redid it with your repository and still received the same message. I've attached a picture below.

luchadorman commented 8 years ago

I ran wget https://github.com/hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix/archive/master.zip

then unzip master.zip

then cd rpi-rgb-led-matrix-master/ && make

then tried a couple of demos that ran,

and finally sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libgraphicsmagick++-dev libwebp-dev && make led-image-viewer

luchadorman commented 8 years ago

I've resolved this problem, i cloned the git instead of using wget and everything now works.

Can you help me wen i run a demo i just get this screenshot 7

vic-cortes commented 7 years ago

Hello, I've been doing the steps that you already mention. I clone the most recent repository from GitHub and followed the steps. However I still have the message ***No rule to make target 'led-image-viewer'. Stop. Is there another way to install the led-image-viewer?

Thanks in advance

hzeller commented 7 years ago

Are you in the utils/ directory ?

vic-cortes commented 7 years ago

I was in the rpi-rgb-led-matrix/ directory, but I changed it to utils/ directory and everything worked fine. Thank a lot.
