luasocket ERROR_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY declaration

[pincooo]

In windows 7 with MinGW installed, I try to install luasocket on lua-5.3.4 environment with luarocks-2.4.3-win32 I give the shell command

c:\>luarocks install c:\luasocket-master\luasocket-scm-0.rockspec OR c:\>luarocks install luasocket

I always get the following error:

C:\luasocket-master>luarocks install c:\luasocket-master\luasocket-scm-0.rockspec

I googled for this, but no way, I didn't find anything. It seems that the compiler didn't find some header, I checked all paths in environment variables and they are ok. Maybe some compatibility issue?

thank you for all,

Pincoo

Any solution ? I had the same issue.

[azrafe7]

I had the same problem.

Solved by using mingw-w64 (and msys2) instead of mingw.

See this for a similar issue (https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/2361).

And - more importantly - this (https://computingabdn.com/softech/mingw-howto-install-gcc-for-windows/) for detailed instructions on how to properly install both packages (using default config settings in the installer won't cut it :).

[ThomasJanuary88]

It still doesn't work for me. Mingw64 doesn't have certain file as libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll which create system error !

[pincooo]

Many thanks azrafe7, your suggestion worked for me!

[azrafe7]

@pincooo you're welcome.

@ThomasJanuary88, you're either still using mingw (the original), or have skipped some steps in the instructions for mingw-w64. That missing file makes me think that probably you've chosen dwarf as exception model, which also means that you've selected i686 as architecture.

What you need, according to the article, is x86_64 as architecture, and sj_lj for exception model. You can try reinstalling with that.

Thanks for the mingw-w64 build tip!
