MCSDK VIDEO setupenvMsys Error

Hi Jane, which minGW version are you using? it is for a 64 or 32 bit machine? when you installed it did you check MinGW compiler suite, MSYS Basic System and MinGW Developer Toolkit boxes?

Also from setupenvMsys.sh we have that expected installation path is c:\MinGW (default) so we can double check this as well

>>>>>>>>>>>>setupenvMsys.sh>>>>>>>>>>>>>

# Note that MINGW_RUNPATH should NOT have spaces in the name. The mingw

# installer puts it in c:\MinGW by default.

MINGW_VERSION="20111117"

MINGW_RUNPATH="/c/mingw"

MINGW_SRCPATH="$MINGW_RUNPATH"

thank you,

Paula,

              My customer use mingw-get-inst-20120426.exe, for win32 machine. We installed the same minGW version on another PC and it works well.

               My customer said she installed the minGW at D:\ the first time and then installed the software. Later she installed the minGW at C:\ the second time, but the same error still occurred.    Looks there're something wrong on this PC and we do not know how to solve it.
                

               Thanks for your help again!

Hi Jane,

just to clarify, you installed the same minGW in other pc and mcsdk_video_2_0_0_10\dsp\mkrel>setupenvMsys.bat bypass is working without printing errors, is it my undestanding correct? If so, my main suspition would be installation path differences.. I would suggest open setupenvMsys.sh and look for "minGW" and check that all the paths  for /bin gcc.exe and make.exe etc are actually possible to be found.

Thank you,

Paula

Paula,

             Yes, there's another computer can work successfully. 

              For this computer with error, we double checked the path and it looks OK. It has the same path with the successful computer and the same configuration. And the shell can be started successfully from windows start menu.  

             Any more tips? 

              Jane

Paula,

            Clarify some information as below; 

            1   customer installed minGW to D:\ the first time on this computer and find the error 

            2   then she re-install the minGW to C:\,  the same error as before

            3    She install the minGW on anther computer to C:\ the first time, and this computer can work successfully. 

           On the computer with error, my customer can start shell from window's start menu, but if she run "setupenvMsys.bat bypass", the error occurs.

           My customer need solve the issue on the first computer and she ask TI provide support. 

           Thanks very much for your help! 

           Jane

Jane, could you confirm me if between steps 1 and 2 minGW was unstalled? if not could we try this:

uninstalling C:/MinGW and D:/MinGW rebooting PC, and then reinstalling MinGW to C:.

Thanks for your help

Paula

Paula,

                  yes, the minGW is unstalled between step1 and step2. 

                  Thanks very much!

hi, Paula.

I met a problem. I install minGw in my laptop, it has 305M. but I install it in my desktop, it just about 5M. 

of course,  many directory does not exit in my desktop. I have selected "MSYS Basic System and MinGW Developer Toolkit boxes"  when I installed.

I don't know why, how can I solve it ?

thank you.

Hi Lei, minGw needs to get some packages and for that it is necessary to have a internet connection. If you desktop is connected to internet but you still cannot download the packages please check if you have a Proxi or firewall who is restraining the connection.

If this is the case you will see something like:

mingw-get.exe: *** ERROR *** Get package: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/mingw-get-0.5-mingw32-beta-20120426-1-bin.tar.xz?download: download failed

Thank you,

Paula
