Problem with compile build VCV Rack

Plugins & Modules
1

Hi everyone. I have a problem when I try to compile a VCV Rack (v1 & v2 - same problem) build via MSYS2 64bit version on my Win10 computer. I many times installed MSYS2 on my computer step by step use a recipe to building Rack on VCV Manual - Building. So finally i have the same result when I try make dependancies using make dep command I recive this

$ make dep make: cc: No such file or directory make: cc: No such file or directory make: cc: No such file or directory arch.mk:10: *** Could not determine CPU architecture of . Try hacking around in arch.mk. Stop.

Year ago I change only my old HDD and reinstalled system on new disk. Before everything works fine. But now nothing works. I have a 64bit W10.

Trying install Rack on different drive, catalogue, etc, … I would appreciate any advice on what to do in this case.

this could be a problem with github,

yesterday I couldn’t compile any plugins, but today they compiled fine so maybe it is just this,

but I would delete everything and try a fresh start first.

I can’t build any version of VCV Rack (v1 or v2) since I change system disk. I used this before for compile plugins for v.1.1.6 of Rack. I have this problem every time (last year) I want to try compile by my self some new plugins. And every time have this problem. It’s kinda frustrating. Because I don’t know what the problem is? I follow the recipe and nothing. The previous system was installed on the old disk but on a logical partition. And I wonder if that’s not a problem? Or maybe it doesn’t mean anything? But then everything worked, I was able to compile new Rack versions and new plugins.

Never had a problem. Did you install all the required tools using pacman?

Yes I installed all tools required - every time. I dont know how many times I installed MSYS2 in this year and how many I use all commands from manual :slight_smile:

Please post a screenshot of your cloned Rack directory. It looks like some files or folders are missing.

all for v2

You are calling „make dep“ from the command line within the Rack folder?

12

And you are using the MSYS2 64-bit shell?

13

no every time I’m in Rack folder and I use “make dep” command

14

Yes

15

Can you post a screenshot of the shell with the error message?

This is the wrong shell, this is not the MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit shell!
Ist just says MSYS.
