[Coco] Building lwtools and HG NitrOS-9 or NOT was ack

Wed Jun 5 21:28:48 EDT 2013

Gene,
There is a "wwwroot" folder in the "level1" folder in which there's a makefile. That may give you a clue to what's happening. I haven't really traced it all down yet. I was busy with the whole "reboot" thing. I thought is was a memory problem which if it's recurssion then it is running out of memory for sure because of that.
It happens at the same spot each time. Right after setting the attributes of the cmds in level 1. It doesn't do it on all systems (D64, Alpha etc), mainly in Coco Level 1. Then when those cmds are accessed again, it fails. There are other places it occurs as well. I think it's the same... after setting attributes on level 2 6809 & 6309 cmds though I'm not sure. I have a text log of the whole dsk build with the errors listed. I don't know how to pull up the stats in "winderz" like you can in Linux. There is probably a way as cygwin is just a "linux" emulator of sorts providing a similar cmd enviroment.

I think my "error 216"s are coming from when it aborts from the "error 218"s as the count of errors is exactly the same.

(..)
Hundreds of those in fact, but I haven't detected what this wwwroot is yet.

Clue?

On Wednesday 05 June 2013 20:44:24 Bill Pierce did opine:

Moved/copied it, works.  Whether it actually works in level1,  I don't 
know.  While I do have level 1 machines, they aren't set up to test with 
ATM.

The reboot I looked at is a level2 only command ANAICT.  So I moved it to 
the end of the list in te makefile where the failure at least lets the rest 
of it build.

Not no permission, but file exists because that copy has already been done.

I am getting recursion at some point in the build, but haven't located the 
src of that yet.  Example:
os9 copy 
"wwwroot/./././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././././Makefile"
