General :: Make - Command Still Not Working On Cygwin
Jan 21, 2010
Based on previous forum discussions, I tried to install cygwin with 'make' installed from develop during installation. I can even see 'make.exe' in bin folder, but still while running the make command, it still shows error.
I was confused in one other part. Should I put the bin folder in some specific location or just wherever it is placed during cygwin installation? I was running VIC model, do I need to place the bin folder inside VIC source code folder.
I have installed cygwin to my windows xp machine. I typed the commmand in cygwin shell it shows "command not found". How can i install make command in cygwin
I installed the CUnit framework which is a .tar.gz file from the bash shell in cygwin.
make gives me an error saying:
make install works make clean works
I am not able to compile but install works I do not know if it is installed and as to where it is installed
when i checked it gives me a list of header files and also the lib files. I do not know as to why the make command is not working in cygwin. When i go to the bin directory it shows the make command.
But I just downloaded cygwin to my xp machine. Tried my first experimental script and created it one level directly below where cygwin put me by default. The script, named show two says:
#!/bin/bash echo $1 echo $2
But bash apparently can't find it. The name of the script is showtwo, but I also tried naming it showtwo.sh; no dice.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and while trying to install the Wacom driver and kernel I get to the step after ./config and get this message when I use make.
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
I've tried looking up on it and they all say that build-essentials should be installed first. So I looked into it and I found out that it's already installed along with the make command itself.
Anyway to get Ubuntu to recognize it as installed?
I installed cygwin with rsync on a Win XP Machine. My goal is to backup a folder from one hard drive to another (both on XP machine).
I run the following command from a batch file:
Works fine except the --delete flag is not working. Copies everything in source to destination, but doesn't delete some extra files that are present on the destination, but aren't on the source, which it's supposed to. I looked at the rsync man page, and I'm doing everything right... such as not using wildcard.
The same command works perfect on another computer (XP machine; source and dest both on XP machine).
I have a program that is completed under Linux, it requires library tidy, PCRE and libcurl, which could be found in Cygwin too.
I could compile my linux program through Cygwin and produce an EXE file, however it do require 'cygwin.dll' installed by the users.
I am wondering if I could have someway to produce out a stand-alone EXE file that could run independently from Cygwin ? ( I don't mind to combine that cygwin.dll and the EXE together for a larger EXE file).
I have installed cygwin 1.7.5. But the command "file" (check the type of a file) is missing. I tried to re-install, but could not find it on installation program. Where is it?
I'm running cygwin 1.7 on a vanilla win2k3 r2 server. I've put together a simple crontab that I'll paste in her in a sec. The crontab entries call several shell scripts that do either scp's or rsync's from linux servers to this win2k3 box under cygwin.
The problem is that the scripts work and run fine from the commandline. Just not when called from the crontab. I'm running from the root equivalent administrator UID. The crontab log files are empty of errors.
crontab is:
Like I said, the scripts execute fine from the command line.
I have build-essential, but make command not working I have build-essential package, but there is still a problem with make command. When I run it in a directory, it shows following message: mudassar@javaDev-1:~/Desktop/gwget-0.99$ make make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. When I explicitly specify a make file, the following message appears:
I have a Cygwin script that connects to a web site with the bash command "curl". Phasing out Windows, I need to port everything to Linux. Ubuntu bash doesn't recognize "curl". There has got to be an equivalent.What would it be? Beneath the dashed line the top of the cygwin man page. And while on the topic of the bash commands available on Ubuntu, where could I find an exhaustive list?
As one of our friends told, I have downloaded and installed the CYGWIN on my winows xp pc, to learn and practice linux commands.when the icon of it is double clicked, its screen as appearing as below:
System1@system ~ $ MY DOUBT IS :
I could make a directory with command like mkdir. But after that it is not allowing commands like touch, vi, vim etc.How i have to write data or a file in it. Still anything to do after installing CYGWIN.
I am doing some embeded linux work in ARM 9263.So I need to make a image for that board.But when I using one command "make uImage" I am getting the following error.
make: arm-linux-gcc: Command not found CHK include/linux/version.h make[1]: `include/asm-arm/mach-types.h' is up to date. CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep code....
I am using cygwinI am getting these errors when i compile sim_routing.cc program by this command../../bin/cxx sim_routing.ccg++ -Wall -o sim_routing sim_routing.cxxfollowing errors comes../../common/priority_q.h : In member function 'bool guardedQueue<ITEM>::Validate(Const char*);error : there are no argument to 'strcat' that depend on template parameter so a declaration of 'strcat' must be avaible.error : <if you use -fpermissive g++ will accept your code but allowing use of undeclared name is deprecated>error : there are no argument to strcat that depends on template parameter,so declaration to strcat must be avaible
I want to use the command more to see the content of a text file; however, the command is not available. I wonder whether all linux commands exist in cygwin. I am running cygwin on windows xp.
New to this kernel stuff But not too new to C/C++. I'm trying to compile the linux kernel on a PC, that is running Windows XP 32 bit, using Cygwin. I keep getting the error saying:
a friend of mine gave me a .tar.gz file which contains a bunch of C sourcefiles and a makefile. I don't get how to use the make command to create an executable out of those files. What arguments do I have to give the make command?
I have the binaries: perl-5.10.1-3.tar.bz2 and I don't have access (admin privileges) to run setup.exe for cygwin, my question is how can I install manually inside cygwin the module for perl: perl-5.10.1-3.tar.bz2?(or maybe can I get the sources and compile? can someone tell me please how?)
I'm interested in modding an open-source turn based game called Advanced Strategic Command or ASC, but to do that I need bunch of libraries. Installing those libraries is very easy in linux, I know but the thing is I'm working with windows in which the building of the libraries is a bit more complex, as you probably know. One of those libraries is the ligsigc++, I'm using VC++ but haven't been successful in building the libsigc++ in VC++. I considered making my life easier with Cygwin (a unix shell for windows) and simply executing ./Configure, Make. I's worked like a charm and the library dll it produced is named cygsigc-2.0-0.dll which made me wonder is compiling a library in cygwin to be linked with VC++ perfectly ok? That is is there any difference in compiling in cygwin and VC++?
I recently installed Cygwin on my windows vista to practice on Linuxunix commands.I am unable to do a simple task of declaring variables on the command prompt I am trying:
$ vech=Bus $ echo $vech bash: vech : command not found
What am I missing? Do i need to add something to .bashrc? Also, I remember right click on the shell command gives the ability to copy or paste text from the shell. I am using Bash, how do I copy n paste text on shell window?
I have just started using backtrack. I an a fresher into this field. In one of the assignment, I am giving command make stack.c in which it gives me the error makefile:l: *** missing separator. Stop.
I am very new to Linux. I want to work on GTK. As I came from VB background, I want to use Anjuta IDE to start my design. I installed CYGWIN. When I am trying to install anjuta , I am getting error saying GLIB and Unique1.0 not found :
I'm hoping that someone can help me, I need to remove spaces (not replace with underscores) from several thousand files on a system with cygwin. Can I do this from the shell using rename or mv somehow?
I am running programs remotely but they are terribly slow. I'm on a windows machine which may be my first problem. I have killer ping and download speed so they should run fine. What can I do to resolve this.
