Problem installing ROOT 5.34 on Windows 7

mgatu · August 13, 2014, 4:36pm

I am trying to install ROOT 5.34.19 on Windows 7 64-bit, using cygwin. “./configure win64gcc” runs fine, make proceeds part of the way but then runs into errors. First, it will not build libReflexDict.dll. When I run with the option “./configure win64gcc --disable-reflex”, the first problem comes at libRIO.dll (see below). What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

Cygwin is not officially supported anymore, but I’ll try on a Cygwin 32bits and I’ll let you know. BTW, which version of gcc do you have?

Cheers, Bertrand.

mgatu · August 13, 2014, 6:45pm

I have gcc 4.8.3-2. Thanks for checking on this for me!

bellenot · August 13, 2014, 6:48pm

You’re welcome. I’ll check tomorrow (I cannot access the Cygwin virtual machine until then).

Cheers, Bertrand.

Hi,

I have no problem compiling ROOT v5-34-00-patches and v5.34.19 on Cygwin (32bits) with gcc 4.8.2…
And BTW, why using Cygwin, and not the native Windows version of ROOT?

Cheers, Bertrand.

Hi dear mgatu

I’m trying to compile ROOT and I face exactly the same error. Have you found any way to overcome this?

Thanks a million

Hi,

If I remember correctly the 64bit never worked correctly on cygwin. Is using the 32 bit build an option for you?

Philippe.

Hi,

FYI, Cygwin is not supported. May I advise to use a Windows native version of ROOT? You can choose between using a prebuilt version or building from source with CMake.

Cheers, Bertrand.
