Compiling and building MP (2 Viewers)

Re: AW: Compiling and building MP

Same here: making a clean complete checkout isn't possible for the last two weeks I think.
only copying the folders manually helps. Here's a screenshot from my server:

edit: Now it's running perfect again, thx

I can also check out fine

Though I have the following issue:
- Uninstalling Mediaportal and clean installing the compiled version gives me a "gentle.config" error on the TV-Server configuration
- Upgrading Mediaportal 1.1.0 RC1 seems not to have this bug!

AW: Compiling and building MP

Yesterday evening downloading and compoling worked fine, today there's the following problem:

Thx in advance, greetings

It looks like you are downloading the complete trunk. For MP1 you don't need the mp-xaml-experiment. You can set that folder to "Delete and add to ignore list" in TortoiseSVN. The MP2 folder can be added to the same list if you aren't following that code yet. That will save us a bit on server traffic/load.
The error you see is a known bug that occurs rarely and randomly and almost exclusively on full checkouts. It used to occur much too often, but should be quite rare now. You just do another SVN update and it will (eventually) get all the sources for you.

I cant get either Mp or Tvserver to compile

TV-server gave this error

File: "..\..\..\TvEngine3\TVLibrary\TvPlugin\TvPlugin\bin\Release\TvPlugin.dll" -> no files found.
Usage: File [/nonfatal] [/a] ([/r] [/x filespec [...]] filespec [...] |
/oname=outfile one_file_only)
Error in script "Setup\setup.nsi" on line 666 -- aborting creation process

MP gave this

File: "..\..\mediaportal\xbmc\bin\Release\MediaPortal.exe" -> no files found.
Usage: File [/nonfatal] [/a] ([/r] [/x filespec [...]] filespec [...] |
/oname=outfile one_file_only)
Error in script "Setup\setup.nsi" on line 457 -- aborting creation process

Any Ideas, ??

DaiC1 have a earlier in the Build.log. There will probably be a Build Failed entry. Above this will be some error messages.

The error message you are getting is because NSIS cannot find the defined file to include in the installer.

Make shure you checked out:

MediaPortal 1: https://sources.team-mediaportal.com/svn/public/trunk/mediaportal

TV-Server: https://sources.team-mediaportal.com/svn/public/trunk/TvEngine3

MediaPortal and TV-Server's common plugins: https://sources.team-mediaportal.com/svn/public/trunk/Common-MP-TVE3/

Tools: https://sources.team-mediaportal.com/svn/public/trunk/Tools

With your svn client.

I'll have a look when I get home.

@Moesfeld Yip I thought that was the problem so I ended up checking-out the whole trunk, with no resolution to the problem {same erors}.

DaiC1 Have you installed all the pre-requisites as defined in the wiki MediaPortal2_Development/Compiling - MediaPortal Manual Documentation.

I had a similar problem when I first tried to compile. You need to install .Net 2.0 SDK, even though on parts of Microsoft's web site they indicate it has been superceded by .Net3.5

.... make sure, NSIS installer is installed in %programdirectory% - not anywhere else - the path to it is hardcoded in the buildscripts.

Hi everyone,

I am getting the following error when I try to compile mediaportal:

c:\svnroot\mediaportal\trunk\Tools\Script & Batch tools\UninstallFilelist\UninstallFilelist.sln.cache(59,5): error MSB4126: The specified solution configuration "Release|MCD" is invalid. Please specify a valid solution configuration using the Configuration and Platform properties (e.g. MSBuild.exe Solution.sln /p:Configuration=Debug /platform="Any CPU") or leave those properties blank to use the default solution configuration.
Done Building Project "c:\svnroot\mediaportal\trunk\Tools\Script & Batch tools\UninstallFilelist\UninstallFilelist.sln" (Rebuild target(s)) -- FAILED.

Build FAILED.


Any thoughts? I apologize, I am somewhat inexperienced at this. Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards,

Mike
