Issues to build GNSS sample while using SUPL server for A-GNSS

Question

Hi DevZone community, I have an error while building GNSS sample while using SUPL server A-GNSS, please see below the error I get and help me if you know where the issue may come from -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! See also "C:/ncs/v2.6.1/nrf/samples/cellular/gnss/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log". See also "C:/ncs/v2.6.1/nrf/samples/cellular/gnss/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log". FAILED: build.ninja C:

Hi Saad, 
 I did a try then successfully build the GNSS sample with SUPL. Here are the steps. 
 1) Referring to docs.nordicsemi.com/.../README.html 
 Downloading and installing 
 You can download the SUPL client library from the nRF9160 DK product page . 
 Download the nRF9160 SiP SUPL client library zip file and extract it into the nrf/ext/lib/bin/ folder. Make sure to maintain the folder structure that is used in the zip file. 
 2) Set building configuration, adding overlay-supl.conf. I also added " CONFIG_GNSS_SAMPLE_SUPL_HOSTNAME = "supl.google.com"" as you did. 
 
 Here is the building log:
