Yeah thank you very much! that's probably why. !!! When I try to build now, i get : $ ./mach build 0:05.11 Clobber not needed. 0:05.11 Adding make options from /Users/jacqueline/mozilla/mozilla-central/mozconfig AUTOCONF=/usr/local/Cellar/autoconf@2.13/2.13/bin/autoconf213 MOZ_OBJDIR=/Users/jacqueline/mozilla/mozilla-central/obj-ff-dbg OBJDIR=/Users/jacqueline/mozilla/mozilla-central/obj-ff-dbg FOUND_MOZCONFIG=/Users/jacqueline/mozilla/mozilla-central/mozconfig export FOUND_MOZCONFIG 0:05.12 /usr/bin/make -f client.mk -s 0:05.30 make[3]: echo: No such file or directory 0:05.30 make[3]: rm: No such file or directory 0:05.30 make[3]: *** [pre-export] Error 1 0:05.30 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... 0:05.30 make[3]: *** [.cargo/config] Error 1 0:05.30 make[2]: *** [default] Error 2 0:05.30 make[1]: *** [build] Error 2 0:05.35 0 compiler warnings present. make: *** [build] Error 2 So I tried to run ./mach bootstrap as maybe that might help me diagnose the problem and when I do, i get another error: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/jacqueline/#mozilla/mozilla-central/build/moz.configure/init.configure' So perhaps theres files that are still pointing back to the "#mozilla" directory instead of my new "mozilla" directory ? Could that be why I cannot build too? Do you know if there are any global vars that i have to reset/set? I've tried setting MOZBUILD_STATE_PATH , MOZCONFIG and my .hgrc file to point to my new "mozilla" directory but no luck :( Thank you very much! _______________________________________________ dev-builds mailing list dev-builds@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-builds
