ROOT Version: 6.22
_Platform:_ubuntu 20.04 Compiler: Not Provided
Hi all,
I have been trying to build root 6.22 from source file by following instructions on https://root.cern/install/build_from_source/. I tried including python2 and python3 also. When I am building using cmake, I get this error. Can you please help?
Hi @amkoshy,
and welcome to the ROOT forum!
Can you please copy-paste the content of those files mentioned in the error message? The XROOTD-build-*-.log.
Hi @eguiraud ,
These are the screen shots of the err and out(only the last few lines since there were no issues in the beginning) log files. Hope this helps, please let me know if you need more information.
Please install the openssl-dev package or, if you don’t need xrootd (i.e. reading ROOT files over the network), configure your build with -Dxrootd=OFF -Dbuiltin_xrootd=OFF.
yes, some resources here and here (but it should not be that much different than an installation on actual ubuntu, besides maybe the fact you need Xming as an X11 server)
there is experimental support, see e.g. the 6.22 release page – we test ROOT on windows and a large part of the features work. It would be great if you could open another forum topic about the difficulties you had with windows
