Problem building webkit on Windows 10: sh: cygpath: command not found

XMLWordPrintable

    • x86_64
    • windows_10

      ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
      Windows 10 64-bit
      OpenJDK 11.0.10 64-bit
      Can be reproduced while building OpenJFX 15.0.2 and master (17)

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      Hello everyone,

      I was hoping you could help me to figure out why I can't build webkit on my Windows 10 machine. I think I did everything according to the instructions on https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Building+OpenJFX, but it still doesn't work.

      It seems that by some reason it can't execute cygpath command from a perl script:

      > Task :web:compileNativeWin
      Caching disabled for task ':web:compileNativeWin' because:
        Build cache is disabled
      Task ':web:compileNativeWin' is not up-to-date because:
        Task has not declared any outputs despite executing actions.

      :web:compileNativeWin (Thread[Execution worker for ':' Thread 2,5,main]) completed. Took 21.571 secs.

      FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

      * Where:

      * What went wrong:
      Execution failed for task ':web:compileNativeWin'.
      > Process 'command 'perl'' finished with non-zero exit value 1

      I can run fine cygpath in the terminal:

      > which cygpath
      /usr/bin/cygpath

      > cygpath -w "/cygdrive/c/Windows"
      C:\Windows

      Has anyone seen such an issue? How could I debug and fix it?

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      Follow the instructions from https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Building+OpenJFX while building on Windows 10.

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      Success build.
      ACTUAL -
      Failed build with error:
      sh: cygpath: command not found

      ---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
