Get started build Error

[bansky0]

Hi,

I recently beginning with RE developer started pack, but seems it is pretty well documented although I have troubles building through python.

When I run the command line

Code: Select all

python build45.py local45 Testing

. I got the following messages:

I partially solved building with Visual Studio and the solution provided in the examples folder in the SDK. Although I found that I must use the command line to continue with the tutorial and test future RE.

Also, I try some experiments to find other ways to build it. I try using git, powershield and cdm in admin mode with similar results. I really enthusiastic about coding but seems I need someone with more experience to solve it.

@bansky0: That one is a classic. You need to make sure you run the script from a command prompt with environment targeting Windows x64 architecture. This is usually done by starting a command prompt from a specific shortcut installed with Visual Studio / MSBuild Desktop Tools, called e.g. "x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2019".

Thanks @jengstrom, you just pointed me out in the right direction!

Just for the record, if somebody is using Visual Studio 2022. I solved it running in PowerShell in admin mode
...\tools\.\Launch-VsDevShell.ps1 -Arch amd64

And then running the python line.

@bansky0: You are not supposed to need admin mode for anything. That can make the resulting files have weird permissions, and cause other problems.

The error message in your earlier post has nothing to do with permissions. The issue is just that the command prompt you started was for 32 bit executables when it should be 64 bit.

Powershell is not needed in any way - it calls for a regular command prompt shortcut for Visual Studio, specifically targeting 64 bit (x64), but good if powershell works too.

Maybe you mean that VS2022 no longer comes with command prompt shortcuts, and they have been replaced by powershell. I'm not sure as I have not tried VS2022 yet.

It definitely comes with the custom shortcuts

@jengstorm:

Hi. Yes, It is true I didn't need admin mode. I just tested. Thanks for the tip.

I can see what you mean with 32 bit executables. I realized that the problem was that I should be running in 64 bit.

My VS2022 runs the command line in 32 by default even I have installed and configure all in 64 ( I probably didn't do something properly I'm still a newbie with VS). So, what I did was track dev PowerShell and make it run at 64 bit. It is not a straight forward solution because I need to run it to make the command line at 64 bit at the beginning, but I made it work.

I will have a look at custom shortcuts soon. Currently working on the tutorial for RE.
