405510 - Can't build with official VC9 release -- softokn3.chk error

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Aaron Leventhal]

Here's the error:

        c:/moz/mozilla/dist/lib c:/moz/mozilla/dist/lib/freebl3.dll
c:/moz/mozilla/nss/shlibsign -v -i c:/moz/mozilla/dist/lib/freebl3.dll
make[2]: Leaving directory `/c/moz/mozilla/security/nss/cmd/shlibsign'
/c/mozilla-build/moztools/bin/nsinstall -m 755 ../../dist/lib/nssckbi.dll ../../dist/bin
/c/mozilla-build/moztools/bin/nsinstall -m 644 ../../dist/lib/softokn3.chk ../../dist/bin
nsinstall: ..\..\dist\lib\softokn3.chk: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [libs] Error 3
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/moz/mozilla/security/manager'
make: *** [all] Error 2

What's a workaround for now?

The problem is that make doesn't execute the command c:/moz/mozilla/nss/shlibsign -v -i c:/moz/mozilla/dist/lib/softokn3.dll. That command is needed to generate softokn3.chk. I doubt that it's related to VC9. It looks like a bug in either the makefile or the make command of MozillaBuild.

It's because I tried to just do a make distclean

When I build with a completely new tree everything works.

Should we mark WORKSFORME?

It's INVALID, as it was not an actual bug then.
