r25225 compiles under Linux, but fails under Windows.

I've just checked out and compiled r25225 without any issues using FPC 2.4.0. Could it be compiler setup problem?

My damn luck! r25225 compiles under Linux, but fails under Windows.

I get the error: Failed to find file "". If it's part of your project bla, bla, bla...

See attached screenshot. I looked at the full compiler output, and it failed when trying to compile the lazarus.pp unit. I'm using the latest FPC 2.4.1 (just compiled it before Lazarus) under Windows 2000.

Here is the compiler output, if that might help. I removed ALL "installed/known packages", except the last 5 or so which are required for the IDE itself, and still I get this error.

Any thoughts?

This happens sometime because of project path. Usually saving project to some easy directory solves the problem.

I'm rebuilding the IDE itself via "Tool > Configure Build Lazarus", so there is not Project Options to look at, like the message suggested? Also, Lazarus is located in 'C:\Lazarus' so there is not spaces etc in the path name.

I tried to the a 'make clean all', but bombed out with a "unknown runtime error"?!? I will rebuild the FPC compiler as well as Lazarus IDE - lets see if I got any better luck after that.

Nope, this is my release build server that has been setup and working for months. Ever now and again, I simply pull in new updates from the FPC and Lazarus repositories and recompile everything. FPC compiled fine, but the Lazarus rebuild failed. :-/

> FPC compiled fine, Doesn't mean it'll work fine ;-) The "internal error" kinds of prove it.

I obviously tested that by compiling fpGUI library, fpGUI UI Designer etc.. They compiled just fine and the apps worked. It's just Lazarus IDE that didn't want to compile.

Hope your action to rebuild fpc will fix it :-)

Rebuilding FPC made no difference. I then reverted Lazarus to a revision dated 1 May 2010, and that compiled correctly and runs. No idea what happened or changed in the last 6 days of commits. :-/

Is it possible that some of your packages are used from different/older pathes?

The deprecated warning in sqldb (in your screen-shot) has been fixed long before rev 25225.
So I would conclude that your sqldb source is from an older version?

Also in your follow up mail, you seem to compile in "C:/lazarus/" But the image shows "C:/lazarus-0.9.28.2/"

Also 0.9.28.2 didn't have the symbol in question deprecated => that was only done this year.
