Title: Problem Compiling Bitcoin-QT
Post by: Einewton on August 25, 2013, 03:58:47 PM
I'm able to compile bitcoind, but when I try to compile the QT client I get an error when trying to compile.

It's saying that it can't find the file paymentrequest.pb.h and I cannot find this file in the bitcoin source zip... Am I missing a new step to compile the new client?

This is the error I get when running mingw32-make -f Makefile.Release from the QT Command prompt.


src\qt\/paymentrequestplus.h:9:31: fatal error: paymentrequest.pb.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
Makefile.Release:930: recipe for target 'build/bitcoin.o' failed
mingw32-make: *** [build/bitcoin.o] Error 1

So, I downloaded the 0.8.2 release and it compiled fine... But the 0.8.3 source zip appears to be missing the paymentrequest.pb.h file....


Can anyone confirm this, or am I missing something?

Current master needs now Googles protobuf lib, which is causing your problem.
