Hi experts,

Using (nearly) the current trunk fpc, when checking out Lazarus and doing "make clean all" get:

......
Compiling debugmanager.pas
debugmanager.pas(63,3) Error: Duplicate identifier "GDBMISERVERDEBUGGER" debugmanager.pas(63,3) Error: Duplicate identifier "GDBMIServerDebugger" ...
make: *** [ide] Error 2

What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks,
-Michael

It works here. Maybe you were unlucky and got a bad revision.

Seems so. :-(

I deleted "trunk" and re-checked-in everything.

After that make did work without an error message.

But when starting the newly created ide, now I get a message that it can't find the ide sources.

I did check that the directory it assumes ( /trunk/ide ) in fact does contain "lazarus.lpi" as suggested.

any more pointers ?

Thanks,
-Michael

"ide sources"?

The IDE needs the lazarus sources, not only the ide sources.

Of course.

Does your folder contain a file "ide/lazarus.lpi"?

yep:

mschnell at mschnell-Linux:~/Downloads/svn/lazarus/trunk/ide> ls -l lazarus.lpi
-rw-r--r-- 1 mschnell users 32253 Sep 20 10:57 lazarus.lpi

Shouldn't that have been ....../svn/lazarus/trunk?

Yep.

The "ide" was too much :-(

No idea how this happened ?!?!?!?

Grrr

After browsing to the correct folder, it did start, but it threw an exception when loading a recent project.

When restarting I now get:

Seemingly it changed the path I browsed to into a relative path. But that does not seem to work correctly.

And what folder contains the "ide/lazarus.lpi"?

Apparently if the dialog would ask for a directory containing "lcl/interfaces/lcl.lpk" you would give "trunk/lcl/interfaces".

There was a bug in revsions 42889-42893.

I don't know any place in the IDE where the Lazarus directory is changed to a relative path.

I gather I did change it after - because of the failed checkout - I git the error message the first time.

But I understand I did now correctly browse to the ..../lazarus directory, and it does not work nonetheless.

Your screenshot says the directory lcl was not found. Is it there?

Yep:

mschnell at mschnell-Linux:~/Downloads/svn/lazarus/trunk> ls -l lcl total 4108
-rw-r--r-- 1 mschnell users 12948 Sep 20 10:58 actnlist.pas -rw-r--r-- 1 mschnell users 1787 Sep 20 10:58 alllclunits.pp -rw-r--r-- 1 mschnell users 5565 Sep 20 10:58 arrow.pp -rw-r--r-- 1 mschnell users 3057 Sep 20 10:58 asyncprocess.pp

But you are right. This screenshot showed that it was searched for within the lazarus directory and not within the lazarus/trunk dir.

Seemingly the setting it has not been saved correctly due to the crash.

Now it works. after I left lazarus before I tried to load a recent project and got a crash.

After another checkout the ide crash is gone, as well.

Thanks for your help (In fact I should more thoroughly read the error messages :-[ )

Incidentally, I got the exact same error when I downloaded the latest Lazarus Trunk. I copied my latest 'lazarus' binary into the new checkout folder, so I could recompile the latest lazarus using Lazarus IDE.

I just ignore the error and clicked "starte ide". I then did a "Tools - Build IDE" and it worked fine from there onwards. Go figure.

I am now running Lazarus 1.3 r42869 FPC 2.6.2 i386-win32-win32/win64

What error did you get exactly?
You should get a version mismatch warning.

Nice to hear that it is not just silly me....

The directory selected is not a lazarus [or lcl - can't remember] directory. I knew it was, so I ignored the error and clicked the 'Start IDE' button.

ps #1:
I did a checkout from the Git mirror repository. Maybe the startup wizard checks for SubVersion specific files?

ps #2:
I'm not referring to the version change message, where it mentions using the --pcp parameter. I knew that was going to happen, so before I started the IDE, I made a copy of my lazarus profile directory and setup the desktop shortcut to reference the new (trunk) profile directory. When the popup message appeared, I could safely say "upgrade the profile", and my original v1.0.8 setup would be untouched.

There must be a more specific error message than this. For example 'directory %s not found'.

No. It works with the installer, which has no svn files.

It checks if the following directories exist
lcl, packager/globallinks, ide, components.
It checks the file ide/lazarus.lpi.
Then it reads ide/version.inc and checks the version.
