HiHaving installed the Yocto required packages and created a git branch of the project in a new installation of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS I have tried building the core-image-minimal image but continually have the process fail. Having gone through the installation process several times not I simply cannot seem to get this solved. i must add that after a fresh install of the yocto project and set up of my host i find that Bitbake will not execute on first attempt and must be installed. I do not remember this having to be done in my previous use of the Yocto Project to successfully build an image. The error i get is as follows: tpage@ubuntu:~/poky/batmel$ bitbake core-image-minimal Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/bitbake", line 234, in <module> ret = main() File "/usr/bin/bitbake", line 197, in main server = ProcessServer(server_channel, event_queue, configuration) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/server/process.py", line 78, in __init__ self.cooker = BBCooker(configuration, self.register_idle_function) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/cooker.py", line 76, in __init__ self.parseConfigurationFiles(self.configuration.file) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/cooker.py", line 510, in parseConfigurationFiles data = _parse(os.path.join("conf", "bitbake.conf"), data) TypeError: getVar() takes exactly 3 arguments (2 given) ERROR: Error evaluating '${TARGET_OS}:${TRANSLATED_TARGET_ARCH}:build-${BUILD_OS}:pn-${PN}:${MACHINEOVERRIDES}:${DISTROOVERRIDES}:${CLASSOVERRIDE}:forcevariable' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/data_smart.py", line 116, in expandWithRefs s = __expand_var_regexp__.sub(varparse.var_sub, s) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/data_smart.py", line 60, in var_sub var = self.d.getVar(key, 1) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/data_smart.py", line 260, in getVar return self.expand(value, var) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/data_smart.py", line 132, in expand return self.expandWithRefs(s, varname).value File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/data_smart.py", line 117, in expandWithRefs s = __expand_python_regexp__.sub(varparse.python_sub, s) TypeError: getVar() takes exactly 3 arguments (2 given) ERROR: Error evaluating '${@bb.parse.BBHandler.vars_from_file(d.getVar('FILE'),d)[0] or 'defaultpkgname'}' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/data_smart.py", line 117, in expandWithRefs s = __expand_python_regexp__.sub(varparse.python_sub, s) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/data_smart.py", line 76, in python_sub value = utils.better_eval(codeobj, DataContext(self.d)) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/bb/utils.py", line 387, in better_eval return eval(source, _context, locals) File "PN", line 1, in <module> TypeError: getVar() takes exactly 3 arguments (2 given) Any feedback will be appreciated even as to where I should look for the problem
How did you start this project? It looks to me like your bitbake/Yocto environment hasn't been set up completely. These steps can get you started: % . <YOCTO>/oe-init-build-env my_yocto_build This will create a build tree called `pwd`/my_yocto_build. You can put the name of any directory here. After the above step, your shell will change to that directory. Now, edit 'conf/local.conf' to match your needs. Then you can build your image: % bitbake core-image-minimal Please try exactly these steps and see if it helps. -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list [email protected] https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
