Make command line error 127

Assi002 · 08-07-2018, 10:34 AM

whenever I try to run the "make" command line , I see the following (Using Ubuntu 16 Virtual Machine) :

mkdir -p build/release
cd build/release && cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../..
/bin/sh: 1: cmake: not found
Makefile:16: recipe for target 'cmake-release' failed
make: *** [cmake-release] Error 127
How can I resolve this issue ? I am very new to this and I don't know what to do.

Seems "cmake" is not installed. You need to install cmake and then try again.

The pertinent error is the one earlier:

Quote:

/bin/sh: 1: cmake: not found

That says the command cmake itself was not found. Either it isn't in your PATH variable or it exists but isn't executable.

You might want to do a web search for "install cmake on ubuntu" to find out where it gets installed.
