Compiling Code::Blocks with wxWidgets 3.0.0 -- Execution of 'zip -jq9 failed

[craigger]

Hey guys,
tried to compile Codeblocks sourcecode and this error came up.

Code Select Expand

cmd /c if not exist devel30\share\CodeBlocks mkdir devel30\share\CodeBlocks
zip -jq9 devel30\share\CodeBlocks\manager_resources.zip sdk\resources\*.xrc
Execution of 'zip -jq9 devel30\share\CodeBlocks\manager_resources.zip sdk\resources\*.xrc' in 'C:\Users\domin\Documents\clean code\src' failed.


zip.exe is in the PATH variable

C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos SSL VPN Client\bin;%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\zip300xn-x64\zip.exe

Can you help me please?

If that is what you set the PATH to then you did it wrong!

C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos SSL VPN Client\bin;%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\zip300xn-x64

The above might be right.

Thank you for the answer but the same error popped up.

Is it possible that the global compiler variables cause the error?

You NEED to exit and restart CB to see the changes to work.
And, you might need to reboot the computer to see the changes to PATH to work.

Try to use a file path that does NOT have spaces in it. No idea if zip has problems with this or not.
Verify that zip command is in the path; I posted how to do that in my last post.

try to set PATH C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos SSL VPN Client\bin;%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;D:\zip300xn-x64
not C:\zip300xn-x64. I had the same problem with you ,so I changed,it did work for me.
