gmake not found in path

Rindert Hartman

Hello,

I'm trying to build a simple Hello World example project in CCS 6. At first this was working fine but after invoking gmake manually from a command line for some reason gmake can't launch anymore.

Already tried disabling antivirus software and opening a new project but i keep getting the same Error. Also checked if gmake was still there, just to be sure.

Any suggestions?

Most other cases where we have heard this happen is when the anti-virus is running and interfering with the build.

Here is one post with a bit more detail:

If you have ensured the anti-virus is disabled, also try the import and build with a new clean workspace.

Hi AartiG,

Thanks for the quick response

I'm absolutely sure that my anti-virus is disabled. Also importing to a clean workspace doesn't change anything.

What I didn't mention before is that I didn't even change anything in CCS in between successful and failing builds. I didn't even close it.

All I did was run Gmake from the command line, targeting this first hello world example. Which was, and still is, working fine by the way. Only CCS can't seem to launch it for some reason.

Is it only this hello world example that generates the gmake error? Or does it happen with other projects as well?

Found the problem, it turns out there was another file called gmake in the same directory. I must have created it by accident via the command line.

Can't believe I didn't see it right away, but at least it's fixed now!
