Title: Error when building binary files under Windows 64/32 bit
Post by: progof on November 04, 2018, 10:11:13 AM
Hello,

I collect Bitcoin client under Windows 64/32 and an error occurred.

Staging miniupnpc...
Postprocessing miniupnpc...
Caching miniupnpc...
copying packages: native_ccache native_protobuf boost openssl libevent zeromq qrencode protobuf zlib qt bdb miniupnpc
to: /root/bitcoin/depends/x86_64-w64-mingw32
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory


I tried to collect on ubunt 14.04; 16.04; 18.04 64 bit

Do you want to install it on windows or linux ?

Your output shows that you were trying to install it on linux.

You shouldn't be installing bitcoin into your root directory. Use a user directory for this. Simply don't use sudo.

I collect from Linux under Windows and used instructions from this topic:

According to the thread you have linked:

[...]
Windows binaries will be in this folders:

~/bitcoin-0.16.2/depends/x86-64-w64-mingw32 (Windows 64 bit binaries)

~/bitcoin-0.16.2/depends/i686-w64-mingw32 (Windows 32 bit binaries)
[...]


Then, your error message:

copying packages: native_ccache native_protobuf boost openssl libevent zeromq qrencode protobuf zlib qt bdb miniupnpc
to: /root/bitcoin/depends/x86_64-w64-mingw32
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory[/sup]


So, obviously my advice still holds:

You shouldn't be installing bitcoin into your root directory. Use a user directory for this. Simply don't use sudo.


Did you even try it out before replying ?
