Make MOZ_DISABLE_JAR_PACKAGING actually not make jars
1.08 KB, patch
Details | Diff | Splinter Review 
I have a fresh tree that I pulled today, and my system is hanging when the 
compilation reaches the xpfe directory. Some early symptoms prior to the halt
are enclosed below. Note in particular the "Bad command or file name" due to 
mismatch of "/" and "\". Later on, the system hangs when the following @perl
script is called, with a pop-up error to the effect that the program makes
an attempt to do an invalid write. The only way to exit after that is a clean
reboot. I did a clobber-build and 'rm -r dist', but the problem is still there.

I am finding very strange that the problem is not mentioned by anybody else?
Are you using activestate perl or cygwin perl?

activestate
Nominating for nsbeta3. There is no point packaging a m18.tar than cannot be
compiled off the shelves.

Something is definitely wrong/puzzling in my tree since nobody seems to be
having a problem. I am going to do a clean  'rm -r mozilla' to see what
happens...
rbs: do you have zip? What version? 

Try disabling jar packaging and see what happens.

set MOZ_DISABLE_JAR_PACKAGING=1

I think I have WinZip 7. I have already launched the total remove 
(rm -r mozilla) on that system, followed by a pull and clobber build all.
I will be knowing what happened next week when I get back to the system.

Denominating for nsbeta3 since this doesn't appear to be a general problem
affecting other persons. It will be nice though if the mismatch of "/" and "\"
could be avoided to achieve greater portability.
Keywords: nsbeta3
rbs, which version of perl do you have?  I've heard on #mozilla that the 613
build of ActiveState is bad and that users should upgrade to the 616 version. 
I'm using version 522 on win98 w/o a problem.

Also, I'm not sure if winzip has a bin that can be called from the commandline. 
You may want to download zip 2.3.  The link is on the win32 build page,
http://www.mozilla.org/build/win32.html .


  

  



    
    

    
  
problem is the ZIP.exe

you need infozip zip.exe V2.3 for windows ( winzip is not good enough)

perl crashes if zip.exe not found



  

  



    
    

    
  
I think I am seeing this error while building on win98. I have zip ver 2.1. zip 
2.3 doesn't work.

I think this is fixed now. I checked in a patch tonight.

Yes, fixed. Marking VERIFIED. Thanks cls/warren for chasing this one. Along
the way, I got the latest perl 618 and Zip 2.3 out of it...

For the record to others who may experience the problem later: to answer the
"Additional Comments From Pratik  Dhupia 2000-09-24 12:00", this problem arises
when the wrong Zip2.3 is installed. I just got the same problem when
re-installing my build environment after upgrading to W2K. I erronesouly picked
zip23x.zip which is intended for MS-DOS, whereas the correct one to pick is
zip23xN.zip:

Dawn: Is there a list of minimum requirements for building mozilla somewhere? 
Can we add this zip23xN.zip vs zip23x.zip issue to it? Thanks,

Hi...
I'm seeing the same behaviour as
Pratik Dhupia reported in "Additional Comments From Pratik Dhupia 2000-09-24 
12:00"

I try to build under win98, I have the zip.exe from zip23xN.zip
and zip -v reports:

And still I'm seeing the error. How do I fix this?

I have the mozilla0.7 source tree and all the utilities installed as it says in
http://www.mozilla.org/build/win32.html.
Any ideas, please.
Adrian



  

  



    
    

    
  
are you sure you have the 0.7 sources? there was a problem with the jar 
manifests recently because that file had moved... way after the 0.7 timeframe.

  

  



    
    

    
  
I removed my mozilla0.7 source tree and I downloaded the mozilla 0.8 source 
tree.
I have the same error happening, in the same place.
I searched and I have only one file named zip.exe on my system.

Does somebody see the same problem I'm seeing?

I cvs-updated a fresh tree starting with a nightly snapshot and I *saw* this
problem... Here is what I did to get away from it:

cd xpfe
rm -r resources
cvs -d%CVSROOT% upd -d
nmake makefile.win

  

  



    
    

    
  
It builds OK now.
Thanks,
Adrian

  

  



    
    

    
  
Everyone seems to be happy again...
