CMake error: mingw32-make.exe: *** [cmTryCompileExec3767362122/fast] Error 2

[Dalibor Smolik]

Trying to compile new KiCad, all archives and source files downloaded successfuly, but when compilation starts (build 5421), error is reported:

 Configuring KiCad ( Release )
-- Building Release version of KiCad revision: 5421

-- Installing KiCad locally. Use RunKiCad.bat to run this version
CMake Error at KiCadWinbuilder.cmake:1040 (file):
  file COPY cannot find
  "C:/Temp/kicad-winbuilder-3.4/kicad/bin/pylib/_pcbnew.pyd".

but this is just error about not existing file, because compilation was unsuccessful.

in CMakeError.log can be found error:

Win7x64, quad-core AMD. From BZR 5404, I get first the _pcbnew.pyd issue again. Copying that file from /kicad/bin to /kicad/bin/pylib and restarting build fixes that. But not all issues are resolved. I bet a clean re-install may work... but frankly, completely rebuilding 5GB of my disk for three "errors" seems ridiculous. Any chance we can see a resolution?

I think the errors you see in the CMakeError.log are red herrings. They are results of checks run by cmake and just result in configuration changes in the build scripts. The important message is the one in cmake_Release_stdout.log:
Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

The problem comes from this commit:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kicad-product-committers/kicad/product/revision/5416

There is a new check implemented to find what version of wxpython is installed but where python checks, there is no wxpython module.

My temporary solution until this is fixed:
Copy all files from the following folder:
kicad-winbuilder-3.4/build/wxPython-cmake-mswu-gcc_dll_cm-3.0.0-win32/wxpython
Into a new folder that you create here:
kicad-winbuilder-3.4/kicad/bin/lib/site-packages

Workaround doesn't work, still same error.

[Mark Jones (heliosstudios)]

Fredrik, this seems to do little here. Copying _pcbnew.pyd again, copying wxpython into site-packages, and clearing the logs, the relevant output is the same:

make_Release.log:

CMakeError.log is attached, and seems to indicate the previous undeclared elements (strtok_r, -lrt, getc_unlocked.)

Is a fresh rebuild in order?

[Brian Sidebotham (brian-sidebotham)]

Hi Guys,

KiCad-Winbuilder is currently broken because of a change in the KiCad
source. I'll issue an updated version soon. However to quickly bodge
things to make it work, edit setenv.bat and change line 57 to read:

SET PYTHONPATH=%PYTHONHOME%;%CD%\build\wxPython-cmake-mswu-gcc_dll_cm-3.0.0-win32\wxpython

Best Regards,

Brian.

Great job, Brian, now it works :)

[Rob Gilliom (rgilliom)]

Thank you Brian. I was struggling with this, too.
