814619 - Firefox v18 Win x64 build fails building vp8.cc

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 798814

(Core :: WebRTC, defect)

Description

[[e-mail]]

Attachment: build-win64-fail.zip

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:18.0) Gecko/18.0 Firefox/18.0
Build ID: 20121123095021

Steps to reproduce:

While trying to build from http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/7e190731240e for Win x64, the build fails. If I specify --disable-webrtc in my mozconfig everything completes fine. Using MozillaBuild 1.6.1 with MSVC 2010 SP1 up-to-date.

Attached is the complete build log. Let me know if more information is needed.

It fails because it can't find "video_codec_interface.h"

I believe this is a duplicate of bug 773423

Please check the objdir value.  If it's not a simple relative path, the problem is likely the bug referenced.  There's a workaround for ntfs in comment 20.

Please report here if it's a dup or a different bug (and include your .mozconfig).  Thanks.

I have attached in my previous post the whole build log which contains all the info you need. The object dir isn't the issue because I didn't change that and v17 compiles fine. Just for reference:  MOZ_OBJDIR=$(TOPSRCDIR)/objdir-ff-release-x64

Sorry, the error is subtle:  

There's a problem with the python build scripts; sometimes errors don't actually get shown and you get an "returned -127" instead.

x64/media/webrtc/trunk/src/modules/video_coding/codecs/vp8/vp8_webrtc_vp8/../../../../../../../../../../media/webrtc/trunk/src/modules/video_coding/codecs/vp8/vp8.cc' failed, return code -127

vp8.cc failing is the problem, but we can't see the actual error.  See bug 799490

Are you using system vpx?

I tried the latest pymake but that fails even for v17 so I switched back to pymake-1ede73cbea2d. I'm using whatever is the default since I didn't change anything in that regard.

Any news about this?

[Randell Jesup [:jesup] (needinfo me)]

We never got the actual error, and never got an answer about if you're using system-vpx.  At this point, it's too late to uplift a patch of this sort to FF18.  I recommend --disable-webrtc for your FF18 build if you can't isolate the cause.

I have already replied to you but I guess you can't force someone to read what one writes.

Whatever, thanks for nothing.

Also, aurora fails too using the same mozconfig.

After further investigation, duping to bug 798814.

Feel free to add more info to that bug, and please include .mozconfig (and a log from a build without -s, so we can see the compiler directives and include paths).  Thanks
