git submodule update --init --recursive failed #15

Closed todatamining closed 5 years ago

I follow the instruction in "compile fails on tesseract #3"

git clone https://github.com/openalpr/openalpr.git cd openalpr git clone https://github.com/peters/openalpr-windows.git windows cd windows git checkout v2.1.0 git submodule update --init --recursive

But get the following error:

Cloning into 'E:/github/openalpr/windows/opencv'...
Cloning into 'E:/github/openalpr/windows/tesseract-ocr/src'...
fatal: https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/info/refs not valid: is this a git repository?
fatal: clone of 'https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/' into submodule path 'E:/github/openalpr/ windows/tesseract-ocr/src' failed

It seems that it is due to https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/info/refs is redirect to github. I clone the code manually:

cd windows git checkout v2.1.0 git submodule update --init --recursive #this step failed git clone https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract.git tesseract-ocr/src

Then got the following error:

Get-Content : Cannot find path 'E:\github\openalpr\windows\tesseract-ocr\src\vs2010\libtesseract\libtesseract.vcxproj' because it does not exist. ....

Hi, did you get the solution of this issue. I am also facing the same.

Do cd windows before git submodule update --init --recursive
