"make everything" Failed

[kelvin1997]

So I follow the build instructions at https://github.com/opnsense/tools cloned everything from git today. When I try to 'make everything'  it says failed at 'make ports' Error Code 1. So I don't get anything in '/tmp/images'.

Is it supposed to compile correctly when I get it from git? Or am I expecting errors from unfinished development? How do I compile a 'stable version'?

You'll need to show us a bit more context, I can't make out which stage went wrong. The repos are out of sync between tagged commits (e.g. 16.1. so it may be that one is missing a fix due to progress in another. If you do:

# git checkout 16.1.8

on ports and tools and core, you'll likely end up with a working version.

please send more information about your problem...but try to use TYPE=opnsense in your make command

I tried to 'git checkout 16.1.8' for core, src and tools. Then 'make everything' again, last pic is the error occurred.

@Aadolf, seems to give me the same error with or without TYPE=opnsense:
   root@:/usr/tools # make everything TYPE=opnsense
doesn't make and difference.

It looks like a cleanup-related issue, can you provide the output of:

# make everything VERBOSE=

Here is the screenshot:

I noticed the screenshot says reusing base set 16.7.a files, so I to go in /tmp/sets/ and delete all of them then double check I do 'git checkout 16.1.8' and try again:

'make  base' passed
'make kernel' passed
'make ports' failed Error Code 1.

Unfortunately, same error.

Ok, progress, although that is a bit strange as it doesn't "break" at a command like it should.

Furthermore, let's see how far ports build has gone:

# tar -tf /tmp/sets/packages-*

You can leave the base set, it's better to reuse it as it's quicker. It's likely something with the ports that is not ok.

Debugging this will take a few more of these posts... it's quite easy to inspect in the system but with a "remote shell" it's tricky.

thanks for trying to do a "remote shell" with me
what is in /tmp/sets/ # ls

 base-16.1.8-i386.obsolete
 kernel-16.1.8-i386.txz
 base-16.1.8-i386.txz

That's all. We don't have packages-* in this folder.

Do you reboot this VM? What's the output of these two commands:

# mount
# df -h

Also need more parameters... FreeBSD 10.2? Amount of RAM?
