Dear Sirs, I am:
Still looking into why ./bootstrap will not work when building openocd (latest) on cygwin. I did not see much about openocd on cygwin lists except: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2009-06/msg00854.html Joe On Thu, Jul 2, 2009 at 11:09 PM, Orin Eman <[email protected]> wrote: On Thu, Jul 2, 2009 at 7:51 PM, Joseph Kuss <[email protected]> wrote: Hello Orin, Thanks for the reply. My TEMP and TMP directory settings that I am looking at on my vista laptop are /cygdrive/c/Users/OWNER_~1/AppData/Local/Temp. I wonder if it does not like "OWNER_~1" which is really OWNER_858_689_0947 I did this in a couple ways, at first I changed the name of my account on VISTA from OWNER_858_689_0947 to jmk, but this did not change the directory name. I notice c:/Users, on vista at least, resists having directories renamed So.. I changed the variables TMP and TEMP in windows temporariily while I am running cygwin so they point at c:\temp rather than c:\Users now $ echo $TEMP returns a nicer "/cygdrive/c/temp" After this I repeated repeated ./bootstrap ======== $ ./bootstrap + aclocal /usr/bin/m4:configure.in:428: canot create temporary file for diversion: Permission denied autom4te-2.6.3: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1 aclocal-1.11: autom4te failed with exit status: 1 Bootstrap complete; you can './configure -enable-maintainer-mode ...." ======== I noticed that there does exist a "m4.exe" file in the /usr/bin directory it looks like m4.exe is haveing trouble doing whatever it is supposed to do. IMPORTANT - I noticed that now the message is /usr/bin/m4:configure.in:718: canot create temporary file for diversion: Permission denied HEY, I got from line 428 to line 718 - Does that indicate progress ? :} Does the 428 or 718 refer to a line in m4.exe , or does it refer to the line in configure.in located in the trunk directory for openocd ??? I'd guess it's a line in configure.in, but line 418 of configure.in didn't look interesting on my system. BTW: I put back My TEMP and TMP directory settings to original so that $echo $TEMP gives "/cygdrive/c/Users/OWNER_~1/AppData/Local/Temp." now it displays: /usr/bin/m4:configure.in:418: canot create temporary file for diversion: Permission denied Orin, You may be right about "My money is on the '~' in any path passed as a command line parameter to the shell in the autotools scripts." How do I eliminate more of these ? Perhaps just changing TMP and TEMP is not enough. I wondered about length of the name of the directory you have the OpenOCD source in, but mine is in c:\projects\OpenOCD_SRC which is longer than 8 characters, so that shouldn't be a problem. Have you tried downloading a complete fresh copy of OpenOCD in a new directory from svn? Perhaps the autotools have cached something. >>> YES, BUT DOING THIS DID NOT HELP I'm going to see if it works on my Vista laptop - I believe I already have cygwin on it. Best regards, Joe P.S Would it be ok if I re-post some of this to the openOCD list ?? Sure, go ahead. Orin.
