I tried building iotivity node on windows 10 by following the Readme but I am getting this fatal error: LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'C:\Users\Paul\Documents\github\OpenPeerPower\iotivity-node\iotivity-installed\lib\octbstack.lib' [C:\Users\Paul\Documents\github\OpenPeerPower\iotivity-node\build\iotivity.vcxproj] Here is the full log file: 2018-02-04T13_51_56_129Z-debug.log

@pcaston are you installing iotivity-node from npm or from the github repo?

pcaston commented 6 years ago

From npm

gabrielschulhof commented 6 years ago

I have performed the following steps:

  1. mkdir iotivity-node-test
  2. cd iotivity-node-test
  3. npm init (accept all defaults by pressing Enter)
  4. npm install --save iotivity-node

This worked. That is, iotivity-node was successfully installed as a dependency of iotivity-node-test.

What precise steps are you performing which cause the failure for you?

Having installed all the pre-reqs windows build tools, node, git, 7-zip, scons

  1. I cloned the repository
  2. cd into iotivity-node
  3. Ran npm install - this failed with reported error I didn't do the npm init. I could try again tonight by following the video exactly - I followed the Readme.md file previously.

@gabrielschulhof I ran your instructions above but failed because of "error unable to create file filename too long" . After I executed 'git config --system core.longpaths true' it worked! Many thanks for your help.
