Compiling new version of OpenViBE

[karthiks]

Hey,

I just updated my OpenViBE source with the new files. I am now unable to compile. I get the following error:

Code: Select all

E:\Openvibe\openvibe-applications\acquisition-server\trunc\src\field-trip-protocol\ovasCDriverFieldtrip.cpp(9) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'pthread.h': No such file or directory

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\BIN\nmake.exe"' : return code '0x2' 
Stop.

An error occured during building process

Press any key to continue . . .

I am using Win7, x86, VC++ 2010 express is installed.

Hi karthiks,

As stated in the relaese note, new dependencies were added.
On windows pthread is needed to compile a new driver.

Before compiling the new sources, you have to re-install the dependencies.
Please run win32-install_dependencies.exe, clean the cmake cache (delete local-tmp folder) and compile the software once again.

Hope this helps !

Hey Laurent,

D'oh. I should have read the release note. Everything installed fine now. But, I have a new issue now.

When I try to run the OpenViBE acquisition server, I get the message - The program can't start because pthreadVCE2.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix the problem. I have cleaned and reinstalled everything twice now. But the issue remains.

When I start the designer, it gets stuck on this message and never proceeds forward -

I have tried waiting for 10 minutes but nothing happens.

Thank you for the help.

Hi karthiks,

I forgot to tell you something...
When adding a new dependency we also add its DLL folder to the windows PATH variable, so openvibe can find every DLL it needs.
This is done by the script win32-init_env_command.cmd. This file has also been updated with the pthread dependency. Please delete this file in your scripts folder.
A new one will be generated at build time with the updated win32-init_env_command.cmd-skeleton file.

Dear Laurent,

It solved my openvibe server issue. But the designer problem is still there as described in the previous post.

Any suggestions?

[lbonnet]

Hi khartiks,

The next step after loading all the plugins (vrpn is the last loaded) should be the designer re-opening the latest scenario(s) used.
These scenarios are defined in the generated file openvibe-designer.conf in C:\document and settings\[login]\.
You can remove this file, maybe it's somehow corrupted.

Other option: please set in your configuration file openvibe.conf the following tokens :

Code: Select all

Kernel_MainLogLevel = Debug
Kernel_ConsoleLogLevel = Trace

Then run the designer, wait a bit, and close.

Send us then the log file (log/openvibe-designer.log).

Maybe we will see where the program fails.

I did this, but it did not work.

It seems to fail at creating Ogre root object. I have attached the log file.

Thank you

[lbonnet]

Hi karthiks,

Indeed it fails in the middle of the Ogre startup process, but without any error message.
If we compare your log to a clean one, it seems like Ogre fails to load its plugins, starting with OpenGL Renderer.

Do you have a local version of Ogre installed on your computer (maybe it could mess up with the openvibe dependency)?

I don't manage to reproduce this behavior on the same setup (win7/x86/visual 2010).

Is this happening also with the latest version of openvibe (fresh SVN checkout from scratch)?

Yes, a fresh checkout has the same problem. this is a detailed console level output -

Another install on a separate PC doesn't have this issue and , on that PC, after this the line says Plugin successfully installed. ( I am not sure if this information is helpful)

Thanks.

Any updates or new suggestions?

Hi there,
Sorry, the team is a bit reduced with everyone's summer vacation.

I'm still not capable of reproducing this problem on any computer here :s

Meanwhile, you can deactivate Ogre so that openvibe won't even try to load it. You will lost the 3D visualization though.

In your local configuration file (openvibe.conf), add the following token :

Code: Select all

Kernel_3DVisualisationEnabled = false

And Ogre won't be initialized at all.

We will try to reproduce this behavior to correct potential bug...

Tell us if it works without the 3D visualizations.

This works fine. The designer loads.

Thanks. Hopefully we can figure out what is wrong.

[karthiks]

Hey Laurent,

Hope everyone's summer vacation was good. I am still unable to resolve this problem without disabling Ogre. Any ideas?

[yrenard]

Dear karthiks,

I believe there is an issue with your graphic card driver. Please try to update them.

Best regards,
Yann
