Make: *** [all] Error 2 on MacOS High Sierra v10.13

Hello everyone, I am trying to build ROOT 6.12 on the MacOS High Sierra v10.13 but I get an error message:

Which exact version of ROOT 6.12 did you use? (they are not all compatible with the newest XCode).

Did you rebuild from scratch? (i.e the cmake cache file might be remembering the wrong information about the XCode compiler capability).

harshit.prasad · February 26, 2018, 6:15pm

Hi @pcanal I’m using ROOT 6.12.06 version. I have followed the rules from here: https://github.com/tmvadnn/root to build ROOT. However instead of cmake ../root command, I have used cmake .. and after that executed make -j8 command due to which I’m facing the above error.

pcanal · February 26, 2018, 8:13pm

Humm … that seems to be a fork that is not up to date … Try with https://github.com/root-project/root

If it still does not work, please do the following.

* create a new build directory.
* run cmake and capture the output
* send us the the resulting output and the file CMakeCache.txt

Cheers,
Philippe.

harshit.prasad · February 28, 2018, 8:11am

Hello again @pcanal The fork was not up to date. I forked the updated repository and the build was successful. Thank you for the help. I really appreciate it.

harshit.prasad · March 5, 2018, 8:40pm

@pcanal I have forked this repo: https://github.com/tmvadnn/root and checkout to the branch tmva-dnn-dev-test. I did the build again, I’m again getting the build error:

Try applying the following patch in the build directory after seeing the error you mention.

Now, I have pasted the patch in TBB-build-RelWithDebInfo.cmake. Now I get this error:

Looks like I’m not appyling patch properly. In which file I have to apply the patch to overcome the above issue?

pcanal · March 6, 2018, 6:15pm

I apply the patch with

cd build_directory
make # this step will fail.
patch -p0 < path_to_patch_file/fixTBB-build.patch
make

harshit.prasad · March 6, 2018, 6:27pm

I have created the patch file in build directory by name fixTBB-build.patch. Here is the output:

pcanal · March 6, 2018, 6:39pm

You seems (see also the fact that you had to use sudo to run make) to have problem with the permission on the output directories/files. You may want to make sure that the build directory is owned by your local user.

harshit.prasad · March 6, 2018, 6:41pm

Executing command with sudo gives me this output:

pcanal · March 6, 2018, 6:52pm

I recommend then that you do the modification by hand (i.e. edit TBB-prefix/src/TBB/build/macos.inc )

harshit.prasad · March 8, 2018, 11:08pm

Thank you for helping me out @pcanal. Your solution worked.
