Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Adrian Tamas (:AdrianT)]

Attachment: build error with NDK r5c

Build environment:
Intel Core 2 Duo 3 GHz, 4GB Ram and 8.2 GB Swap
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64 bit
Android NDK r5c

Starting with the sources from about a week ago I am unable to make the mobile build anymore. Please see the logs for details. On similar environments 2 other colleagues experienced the same issue.

I have tried with the Android NDK r8d as Mark Finkle suggested but I am still unable to build but this time I get an error: The following command failed to execute properly for jsworker.cpp

Bug 825968 is about the NDK r8d build issues. You need to try NDK r8c instead. That is what the build machines are using.

Managed to get the builds working again after upgrading to NDK r8c and removing the ndk platform and toolchains lines. Closing the bug as WFM
