Re: help needed building AOO for the first time
Are you following one of these guides : https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#Windows_7.2C_Windows_8.1.2C_Windows_10 https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Building_on_Windows I confess I haven't done a build for a year or two now, but when I did a successful build I contributed to the page in the first link to document the process, and others have contributed in the meantime to make it possible to build with 64bit cygwin. Now that Windows 10 has WSL2 it might be interesting to try a build that way instead of using cygwin, but for a first successful build I would suggest following the above guides step by step.

I think we need more details... What prerequisites have you installed? Which branch of AOO do you want to build? Which version if Cygwin do you use (type "uname -a" in cygwin)? > When i attempt to create the build i get an error " configure: error: > cannot run /bin/sh ./config.sub " > See the output of the console below: You sure did "autoconf" before that? > > shach@DESKTOP-1FFQPA8 /cygdrive/c/aoo/openoffice/main > $ ./configure --build=BUILD I don't even know what --build=BUILD should do, is this your complete ./configure? If yes, you will get a lot more errors later... But let's begin with the basic questions above, then we can surely find a way...

help needed building AOO for the first time
Hi, I am trying to build AOO on windows 10 for the first time. I installed all the prerequisites as far as i understood. When i attempt to create the build i get an error " configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh ./config.sub " See the output of the console below: shach@DESKTOP-1FFQPA8 /cygdrive/c/aoo/openoffice/main $ ./configure --build=BUILD checking whether configure is up-to-date... yes * * * Apache OpenOffice build configuration. * * * * The configure process checks your platform to see whether * * you can build Apache OpenOffice on it. * * This process checks all pre-requisites and generates a file* * containing the necessary environment variables.* * Source this file after configure has ended successfully. * * * * Warnings that are generated during the configure process * * must be taken into account since it can be a reason for* * an unsuccessful build of Apache OpenOffice.* * * * * * Checking the platform pre-requisites. * * * checking for grep that handles long lines and -e... /usr/bin/grep checking for egrep... /usr/bin/grep -E checking for gawk... gawk checking for gawk... /usr/bin/gawk checking for sed... /usr/bin/sed checking for solenv environment... default checking for custom pack.lst... no configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh ./config.sub Thanks
