I attempted to run the script at:
https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash-on-windows
To create a build environment for GnuCash on Windows where it failed at:
Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.812
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
Boostrap GnuCash Development on Windows
---------------------------------------
This script is intended for people that wish to develop GnuCash on Windows
It will download and install the minimal set of tools
to run a first build of the GnuCash sources.
It will install
- mingw-get, an msys shell and wget in c:\gcdev\mingw
- git in c:\gcdev\git-1.9.4
- a gnucash-on-windows git repository cloned from
git://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash-on-windows.git
into c:\gcdev\gnucash-on-windows.git
- a GnuCash git repository cloned from
git://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash.git
into c:\gcdev\gnucash.git
Notes:
* Components already found in the given locations
won't be touched. Instead the available versions
will be used in that case.
* If the proposed locations don't suit you, you can
pass alternate locations as named parameters to this script.
For example to use c:\soft as base directory you can run this script as
bootstrap_win_dev.vbs /GLOBAL_DIR:c:\soft
Which parameters you can modify can be found near the beginning of this
script.
Continue with the set up (Y/N) ? y
Checking c:\gcdev\mingw\bin\mingw-get.exe... Found, no need to install
Installing msys and wget... Success
Checking c:\gcdev\git-1.9.4\bin\git.exe... Found, no need to install
Checking if c:\gcdev\gnucash-on-windows.git
is a gnucash-on-windows git repository... Most likely ok, won't
clone
Checking if c:\gcdev\gnucash.git
is a GnuCash git repository... Not found
Set up GnuCash git repository...
Failed
*** ERROR ***
Failed to set up GnuCash git repository.
Cannot continue until this has been resolved.
Pres enter to continue...
Also FYI "Pres" is spelled "Press" also when running script with command
line switch:
c:\projects\GnuCash>bootstrap_win_dev.vbs /GLOBAL_DIR:c:\projects\GnuCash
Gives the impression that:
If the proposed locations don't suit you, you can
pass alternate locations as named parameters to this script.
For example to use c:\soft as base directory you can run this script as
bootstrap_win_dev.vbs /GLOBAL_DIR:c:\soft
is a complete lie as it still installs to c:\gcdev\
Thoughts?
