Building NRF9160 sample from command line fails with kconfig error

  • I followed the install instructions from nRF Connect SDK documentation (https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/gs_ins_linux.html), to build and install everything on Ubuntu (running in Windows WSL).
  • I'm working with v0.4.0 sources.
  • I'm trying to compile samples from nrf/samples/nrf9160 using the following command: west build -b nrf9160_pca10090ns -d build
  • I get the following error from kconfig:

I'm already developing with zephyr on Ubuntu (installed with WSL on windows) and I never experienced that kind of problem. I checked other forum posts on building with command line, but could not find anything relevant so far for my problem.

Any advice ?

Thanks

  • Hi,

     

    Are you sure you've sourced the correct zephyr-env file? Since you mention that you have other zephyr repos present as well.

    The output complains that it cannot find this file: /mnt/c/Users/m2min/hubic/FGA/Git/Projects/BlueWhale/Software/ncs/nrf/subsys/bootloader/Kconfig

    Does it exist?

     

    Kind regards,

    Håkon

  •  On my PC, the Nordic + Zephyr repositories are located on the windows file system and accessed from Ubuntu WSL file system from a symbolic link.

    Unfortunately the build system seems to not fit very well with symbolic links, and seems to mix full paths with symbolic paths.

    Accessing the repositories from the full path (and not via path with symbolic link) solved the issue.

    I did not experienced that problem when developping with zephyr only, but at least I can move forward and build now.
