L.S.,

Thanks for posting the configure log output like that. While it isn't
always helpful to post logs (something about a forest and the difficulty of
seeing a tree:-) )  in this case, plus your stated level of experience, it
helps to do at least some degree of remote diagnostics on this. TL;DR: no
nice conclusions here, but the diagnostics and analysis process should
hopefully help you and others who come after. (I've seen this type of issue
pass through the mailing list quite a few times while I've been quiet,
lurking here for a couple of years.)

Let's start.

First: helicopter view and considerations resulting from it:

1- you state you are not an experienced developer.   Consequence: when you
want to build (compile + link + ...) and use (a.k.a. 'run') a complex
software like tesseract, generally speaking you can expect a *long* and
*ardous* learning curve. That goes for all software, not just tesseract.
With some it can be easier, with some it can be tough.

2- tesseract is at a disadvantage in that respect on OSX as I haven't seen
an active collection of Apple-expert-knowledgeable developers around in a
while. Combine this with my *personal experience* that Apple / OSX is maybe
very user friendly, but it sure is hostile towards OSS developers on a
budget (of time and money). Given past encounters, I personally do not do
any Apple/OSX development unless significant funding is guaranteed up front
and people are willing to wait and provide all the hardware. The repeat
experience has been that bad.    Consequence: I can only help you with
generic directions and possibly a few assumptions that may turn out to be
correct, but I've got no hardware around to check or test any of this. Cave
canem.

3- From the initial noises I get the feeling the trouble starts (very)
early in the build process. Generally such early-onset problems hint at
trouble in the local developer environment setup: either it's unusual,
unexpected or otherwise off the assumed "normal". Hard to say what will be
wrong exactly without deep analysis (more later), but a `configure` error
like that indicates at least 3 potential major investigative routes:

(a) the developer environment is "off" (wrong compiler and/or tools
installs, broken installs of same); what we call "b0rked".   Consequence:
almost nothing works as one would expect.
(b) while the tools setup may be okay, some or all of the required
*libraries* are "off" (same options: not installed, installed elsewhere,
unexpected/too-old/too-new
versions/anything-else-you-can-imagine-to-go-wrong-with-this)
 Consequence: weird compile and/or link-time errors; crazy run-time
failures of the application, if building it was reported as "successful".
All kinds of crazy shit.
(c) the project build setup/configuration scripts have a bug themselves
(here that would be the 'configure' script, for example)   Consequence:
"but it works at my place." All kinds of crazy shit. Hard to tell.

Consequence of trouble with *any* item in number 3: if you're not
experienced with the specifics of those areas, you're in a world of hurt
and will need to do a lot of digging on the internet, in manuals and
probably a lot of trial&error too before you get moving again.

--

On with the show: analysis of what you got here.

Took me two rounds of reading your logs before I noticed, because my own
assumptions made me blind for an important first bit:

(a) what machine are you running on, exactly?
(b) assuming you're intent on building the software for use on that same
machine, the question then is: does your current development environment on
your machine support this?

(The shortened to jargon version of this question is: are you
cross-compiling or not? Assumed answer: no, I'm *not* cross-compiling.
What's built here is meant to run on the same box.)

Your machine is reported here:

hostname = Admins-MacBook-Pro-4.local
uname -m = x86_64
uname -r = 18.5.0
uname -s = Darwin
uname -v = Darwin Kernel Version 18.5.0: Mon Mar 11 20:40:32 PDT 2019;
root:xnu-4903.251.3~3/RELEASE_X86_64

/usr/bin/uname -p = i386
/bin/uname -X     = unknown

/bin/arch              = unknown
/usr/bin/arch -k       = unknown
/usr/convex/getsysinfo = unknown
/usr/bin/hostinfo      = Mach kernel version:
         Darwin Kernel Version 18.5.0: Mon Mar 11 20:40:32 PDT 2019;
root:xnu-4903.251.3~3/RELEASE_X86_64
Kernel configured for up to 8 processors.
4 processors are physically available.
8 processors are logically available.
Processor type: x86_64h (Intel x86-64h Haswell)



which reads as "Intel processor or suchlike; 64-bit; "X86_64" being the
magic word here.

Your compiler (which is an important part of your dev environment) is
reported here:

configure:3324: checking for C++ compiler version
configure:3333: g++ --target=arm-apple-darwin64 --version >&5
Apple LLVM version 10.0.1 (clang-1001.0.46.4)
Target: arm-apple-darwin64
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin
configure:3344: $? = 0
configure:3333: g++ --target=arm-apple-darwin64 -v >&5
Apple LLVM version 10.0.1 (clang-1001.0.46.4)
Target: arm-apple-darwin64
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin


which I initially read as "Apple-made clang/gcc (LLVM backend), so okay,
*probably*... I glossed over the "arm" bit there, which I only consciously
noted during the second round. Oops? More later.

Then here is the bit of info telling us what your *compiler* says its
supported target platforms are [supposed to be]
which' list should include the platform you're currently running on as
(assumption) you want to run the built software on that same box:

configure:3364: checking whether the C++ compiler works
configure:3386: g++ --target=arm-apple-darwin64    conftest.cpp  >&5
ld: unknown/unsupported architecture name for: -arch armv4t
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see
invocation)
configure:3390: $? = 1
configure:3430: result: no
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h */
| #define PACKAGE_NAME "tesseract"
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "tesseract"
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION "5.0.1-9-g31a968"
| #define PACKAGE_STRING "tesseract 5.0.1-9-g31a968"
| #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT "
https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/issues";
| #define PACKAGE_URL "https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/";
| /* end confdefs.h.  */
|
| int
| main (void)
| {
|
|   ;
|   return 0;
| }


at which point the shit hits the fan.

The code shown (generated by the configure script to test the compiler's
proper behaviour) is a minimal amount of work to see if a
development environment *MIGHT* work as expected, and this fails. Why?
Where does the "armv4t" architecture suddenly come from?

So I looked again and noticed the DETAILS of the reported compiler version:

configure:3324: checking for C++ compiler version
configure:3333: g++ --target=arm-apple-darwin64 --version >&5
Apple LLVM version 10.0.1 (clang-1001.0.46.4)
Target: *arm-apple-darwin64*
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin
configure:3344: $? = 0
configure:3333: g++ --target=arm-apple-darwin64 -v >&5
Apple LLVM version 10.0.1 (clang-1001.0.46.4)
Target: arm-apple-darwin64
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin


Apple? check.
Darwin? check.
arm? *Uh-oh!* WRONG. Should have that magic x86 bit in it somewhere, or
"86" at least to give us hope.

As the compiler in your current development environment reports it's meant
to produce executables ("apps") for ARM-processor based hardware, *nothing*
it produces will be able to fly on Intel/x86_64.

Granted, that's just 3-6 characters in a torrent of lines, but it's
critical: *somehow* (I don't know how this happened) you've got a ARM
targeting development Xcode(?) setup installed on your machine. That would
be okay if you were, say, *cross-compiling* to iPhone or somesuch (which,
IIRC, is ARM-based), but not for anything that's got to run on the machine
itself.

*What to do?*

First off, make sure this development environment is removed / uninstalled
entirely (while one CAN have multiple development environments on a single
developer machine, that's for experienced people who do both NATIVE and
CROSS-COMPILE development work only (as it's pretty hairy to get right,
sometimes) and you've mentioned you're not in this biome so my advice is
then: get rid of it, for it can only confuse and cause havoc.

Then, if you want to retry, seek a x86/64 ("64-bit AMD/Intel x86
compatible" or words of that order) development environment installer from
Apple's developer centre -- it's where I got pointed at during a quick
google search and I immediately remembered why I don't like Apple, so I'll
stop myself right there and then. ;-)

When you've got it all set up again for x86/64, try the configure script
again and see if it gets past that initial compile+run attempt above:

configure:3364: checking whether the C++ compiler works
configure:3386: g++ --target=arm-apple-darwin64    conftest.cpp  >&5
ld: unknown/unsupported architecture name for: -arch armv4t
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see
invocation)
configure:3390: $? = 1
configure:3430: result: no
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h */
| #define PACKAGE_NAME "tesseract"
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "tesseract"
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION "5.0.1-9-g31a968"

| #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT "

|   return 0;
| }
configure:3435: error: in `/volumes/googledrive/my
drive/laptop/documents/pcode/tesseract':
configure:3437: error: C++ compiler cannot create executables


IMPORTANT: only when you do get past this stage without having to mess
around to get NO ERRORS WHAT-SO-EVER UP TO AND INCLUDING THIS PART, can you
be *reasonably certain*;  no guarantees yet!! You've only touched on (3a)
of the "helicopter view list" just yet, (3b) and (3c) are still valid (as
in: unverified, thus still potential suspect) problems you may encounter
along the way as the 'configure' script continues and you work towards a
working application.

Thoughts on the matter

(i) I hope this will help not just you but also others who come after. One
of the key take-aways here is: remote debugging development issues is a
damn hard business as you may have seen we've only started and already the
number of error-inducing variables is large and the diagnostic tree
exploding. This gets worse as you progress.

(ii) I have not addressed your own stated struggle with the google drive
software, but that's another worry hidden in the background noise level:
usually development environments assume you're working on direct access
disks or a very thorough simulation thereof: Virtual Machines or such-like,
e.g. Docker. While you CAN often get away with other storage use, this can
often cause severe trauma down the road due to subtly different behaviours,
e.g. non-atomicity of file locking, weird data/timestamp behaviour throwing
off your build/make processes into (re-)compiling the wrong stuff or
completely missing an edit change you just did, etc. This is why developers
need different hardware and OS support than "office workers" and is often a
cause for grief in corporate environments. Some types of development
environments are ill-advised for single-person or small teams, where no
dedicated expert admins are on call 24/7. My personal dev rig has a
dedicated, second, built-in SSD for projects; Google Drive, Dropbox and
their ilk don't get anywhere near it. When I need, I copy data between the
two or automate that bit of process with a bit of script if I feel the
need. The machine is single-user and git the tool used for managing and
backing up those projects. It's a personal choice, which I made so I could
minimize my time spent on tedious admin tasks.

(iii) Given that you've got quite a road ahead of you, you MAY consider the
"let's-be-lazy-for-a-moment" potential work-around: I would consider it
well-spent if I went hunting for pre-built tesseract binaries, done by
someone else and ready for download and use on my particular machine.
(Apple, Darwin, Intel/AMD CPU chip, OSX version 18.5.0 (as reported) or
there-about.) Would take a few days for that myself to see if I could get
that tract working for me, and consider a final failure with that path
still time well-spent: I estimate this will take longer to get right, as
in: a point where you are happy with the software working as you want it to)

(iv) writing a (hopefully helpful; you always have a degree of guesswork as
you're not facing one another) response like this costs time. A few times I
decide to chime in, but I'm not around like Zdenko is: I simply don't have
the stamina for long term support like that, particularly on an unpaid
volunteer basis as this, plus I'm no expert on tesseract. (I still do very
much prefer open source myself as the alternative experience has been
significantly worse, those times when it really mattered: with commercial
(closed) software, I was technically and legally unable to help *myself* or
my own teams, thus failing our customers.) The dark side of that coin is
terse answers and a huge gap between the ones that stick around and the
fresh folks entering, asking (ever so slightly) similar questions. It's
okay to bite back when we get a bit curmudgeon, but I'm still very happy to
have him around: his fingerprints are all over the available documentation
and mailing list with helpful answers while I am only a quiet listener at
the best of times.

Having said that, thank you for following up and continued reporting of
your quest; while the conclusions thus far are not happy sunshine, I hope
there's a path or two for progress to be achieved. While I don't think I
can be of much further help (Apple and me ;-) ) let us know what you got
next; continued reporting on any progress is also helpful for anyone who
comes after and does a google search.
