Introduction

A breakdown of the common Camino build errors, what causes them, and how to resolve the error.

pbxcp: libpermissions.dylib: No such file or directory

In XCode 2.3:

Error message

Build target "Camino" of project "Camino" with configuration "Development" - (1 error)
Copying ../dist/bin/components/libpermissions.dylib - (1 error)
pbxcp: libpermissions.dylib: No such file or directory
Build failed (1 error)

Cause

You have enabled a static build of Camino in your .mozconfig, but not in Xcode (target mismatch).

Solution

Remove the following lines from your .mozconfig (rather than change Xcode's target, since static builds aren't useful for development)

ac_add_options --disable-shared
ac_add_options --enable-static

and make again (?)

make[7]: *** No rule to make target `nsIProxiedChannel.idl', needed by `_xpidlgen/nsIProxiedChannel.h'. Stop.

In Terminal

Error message

../../../dist/bin/xpidl -m header -w -I. -I../../../dist/idl -o _xpidlgen/nsINetUtil nsINetUtil.idl
make[7]: *** No rule to make target `nsIProxiedChannel.idl', needed by `_xpidlgen/nsIProxiedChannel.h'.   Stop.

make[3]: *** [tier_9] Error 2

Cause

You have a symlink to the SharedMenusCocoa.framework directory in your /Library/Frameworks/SharedMenusCocoa.framework directory. Computers do not like recursion.

Solution

Re-install the SharedMenusCocoa framework following these instructions: http://www.caminobrowser.org/development/build/ and make.

make[n]: pipe: Too many open files

In Terminal on 10.3.x

make[3]: *** [libs] Error 2
make[2]: *** [libs_tier_9] Error 2
make[1]: *** [tier_9] Error 2
make: *** [default] Error 2

Cause

  • A bug in make that ships with Xcode 1.x (see Bug 335506); happens most often when making in the objdir

Solution

There's no "real" solution to this issue. Work-arounds include:

  • Just make again
    • If it continues to fail after a couple of tries, go back to mozilla and make -f client.mk
  • Manually upgrading your make (not recommended)

nsString.h:55:15: error: new.h: No such file or directory

Error message

In file included from ../../../dist/include/string/nsDependentString.h:43,
                from nsDependentString.cpp:40:
../../../dist/include/string/nsString.h:55:15: error: new.h: No such file or directory

Cause

You are building using GCC4 instead of GCC 3.3. You cannot use GCC4 with Mac OS X 10.2.8 SDK

Solution

In Terminal.app

sudo gcc_select 3.3
make -f client.mk distclean
make -f client.mk

Other stuff we've seen; details to be filled in

Missing/non-Uni SMF

Other

There are some described on the Camino Build instructions page, on Building Mozilla, and on the Mac Build Instructions pages (links below)
