Error in wmake

Hello, I decided to try compile MicroWeb in DOSBox 0.74-3, but i getting this error:

How I can fix this error? OpenWatcom 1.9, target: DOS

Thanks for this project :)

I haven't tried compiling in DOS so unsure why it is failing there.

For Windows, it looks like you don't have all of your environment variables configured for Watcom (as it is failing to include standard C header files)

If you look in the build.bat script, it sets the environment variables needed for compilation (assuming Watcom is installed at C:\WATCOM)

For reference these are the variables that are set: set PATH=c:\watcom\binnt;%PATH% set INCLUDE=c:\watcom\h set WATCOM=c:\watcom set EDPATH=c:\watcom\eddat set WIPFC=c:\watcom\wipfc set LIBDOS=c:\watcom\lib286\dos;c:\watcom\lib286

I believe the INCLUDE path is missing from your setup as this is where the compiler will need to look to find stdio.h, stlib.h, stdint.h etc

I tried compiling on Windows XP SP3 x32 but OpenWatcom cannot find the source code. Also I tried write environment variables manually but it did not help.

This looks strange because wmake is failing to find the compiler executable (wpp.exe). It should be located in c:\watcom\binnt

If you just try running wpp.exe from the command prompt without any arguments does it work? It should print all of the available command line options.

I noticed that wpp.exe is installed only in the version for MS-DOS. Maybe because of this the problem?

The binaries in the WATCOM\binw directory are the DOS versions. You will need to use the binaries in WATCOM\binnt if you are compiling in Windows. Compiling in DOS is currently not supported for various reasons.
