Hi, unfortunately we're not using these tools anymore ourselves.

I'm not sure what would cause this issue, but protoc is crazy picky about its arguments, so I suspect the issue is somewhere there. https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/3028

Hi @nirmalkumar1988. It seems that there's a newer version of the tool: https://github.com/pseudomuto/protoc-gen-doc

The command to run is something like this: protoc --doc_out=./doc --doc_opt=html,index.html CrewLeaveBidService.proto

You need to make sure that you're running the command in the right directory. You may need to set the proto_path. I encountered issues on that and found some resources online. Good luck!
