Faile to compiling the code like in the Installatio guide

[tobiasonkes]

I try to Install MC-Calib like in the Installation Guide. Installing Docker and running the Image was successful. But I don't know what I could make probably wrong. Thanks in advance.

CMake Error: The source directory "/kaist" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt. Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.

make -j10
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Hi @tobiasonkes, thank you for the interest in MC-Calib. Based on the installation guide, the mounted MC-Calib folder should be located at /home/home/MC-Calib and not /kaist. Could you please verify that's the case?

[tobiasonkes]

yeah it is

@tobiasonkes, once you are inside docker, try the following commands:

cd PATH-TO-MC-Calib
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
make -j10  

Also make sure to set the PATH_TO_DATA when running docker interactively:

docker run \
            --runtime=nvidia \
            -ti --rm \
            --network host \
            --gpus all \
            --env="DISPLAY" \
            --env="QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1" \
            --volume="/tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw" \
            --volume="$HOME/.Xauthority:/home/$USER/.Xauthority:rw" \
            --volume="${PWD}:/home/$USER/MC-Calib" \
            --volume="PATH_TO_DATA:/home/$USER/MC-Calib/data" \
            frameau/opencv-ceres

Ok maybe I misunderstood your first comment wrong. actually when I use docker there are no files at all.

root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~# ls root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~# root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~# cd PATH-TO-MC-Calib bash: cd: PATH-TO-MC-Calib: No such file or directory

@tobiasonkes, before running the docker image, navigate to the MC-Calib folder and run the docker run from there.

[tobiasonkes]

Unfortunately the same result.

tobias@tobias-Latitude-5580:~$ cd MC-Calib/ tobias@tobias-Latitude-5580:~/MC-Calib$ xhost +si:localuser:root localuser:root being added to access control list tobias@tobias-Latitude-5580:~/MC-Calib$ docker run \

        --runtime=nvidia \
        -ti --rm \
        --network host \
        --gpus all \
        --env="DISPLAY" \
        --env="QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1" \
        --volume="/tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw" \
        --volume="$HOME/.Xauthority:/home/$USER/.Xauthority:rw" \
        --volume="${PWD}:/home/$USER/MC-Calib" \
        --volume="PATH_TO_DATA:/home/$USER/MC-Calib/data" \
        frameau/opencv-ceres

root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~# ls root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~# ls root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~# cd PATH-TO-MC-Calib bash: cd: PATH-TO-MC-Calib: No such file or directory

@tobiasonkes You'd need to replace PATH-TO-MC-Calib with your own path. Try to locate it inside the docker and create build folder inside it.

[tobiasonkes]

yeah this is what I tried but at the Moment I use docker run there is no directory at all.

tobias@tobias-Latitude-5580:~/MC-Calib$ docker run \

        --runtime=nvidia \
        -ti --rm \
        --network host \
        --gpus all \
        --env="DISPLAY" \
        --env="QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1" \
        --volume="/tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:rw" \
        --volume="$HOME/.Xauthority:/home/$USER/.Xauthority:rw" \
        --volume="${PWD}:/home/$USER/MC-Calib" \
        --volume="PATH_TO_DATA:/home/$USER/MC-Calib/data" \
        frameau/opencv-ceres

root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~# root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~# ls root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~#

MC-Calib folder inside the docker can be found at the path specified in --volume="${PWD}:/home/$USER/MC-Calib". Precisely, /home/$USER/MC-Calib

[tobiasonkes]

ok I have found the path. Unfortunately I have the same error message again. do you know maybe what I why this error message appears?

root@tobias-Latitude-5580:/home/tobias/MC-Calib# mkdir build mkdir: cannot create directory 'build': File exists root@tobias-Latitude-5580:/home/tobias/MC-Calib# cd build root@tobias-Latitude-5580:/home/tobias/MC-Calib/build# cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. root@tobias-Latitude-5580:/home/tobias/MC-Calib/build#

[BAILOOL]

Try removing the build folder from inside the docker and try the compilation again.

[tobiasonkes]

Unfortunately I have the same result.

root@tobias-Latitude-5580:/home/tobias/MC-Calib# rm -r build root@tobias-Latitude-5580:/home/tobias/MC-Calib# mkdir build root@tobias-Latitude-5580:/home/tobias/MC-Calib# cd build root@tobias-Latitude-5580:/home/tobias/MC-Calib/build# cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. CMake Error: The current CMakeCache.txt directory /home/tobias/MC-Calib/CMakeCache.txt is different than the directory /home/tobias/build where CMakeCache.txt was created. This may result in binaries being created in the wrong place. If you are not sure, reedit the CMakeCache.txt

[BAILOOL]

I would delete MC-Calib folder completely and pull the most recent version and try all the steps again.

[tobiasonkes]

Yesterday I unfortunately remove my whole hard drive. So today I set up my complete Ubuntu system new but still the same result.

root@tobias-Latitude-5580:~# cd /home/tobias/MC-Calib/build/ root@tobias-Latitude-5580:/home/tobias/MC-Calib/build# cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

[tobiasonkes]

I finally found the problem. Thanks a lot for help
