imx6slevk problem with bitbake meta-toolchain

[susangracerapak]

Hi,

I have downloaded source code from freescale yocto project.while doing bitbake meta-toolchain i got this error.how to fix it?

susan@susan-VirtualBox:/fsl-release-bsp/build$ bitbake meta-toolchain

Hello Susangrace Rapaka,

Would you please provide more details on whether you’re using the BSP Release or the Community BSP?

And also how are you setting up the bitbake environment? I would say there may be a problem with the configuration. Perhaps your machine is not setup up correctly on the local.conf file.

thank you,

Iam using fsl-bsp-release.kernel 3.10.i followed Freescale_Yocto_Project_User's_Guide.pdf

after downloading,

$ source setup-environment <build_dir>

$ MACHINE=imx6slevk source fsl-setup-release.sh -b <build dir> -e x11

i did bitbake core-image-minimal.i got some problems while doing this.i resolved and then it's completed successfully.

i flashed this image on sd card and my board booting is over.

after,i did bitbake meta-toolchain....then, i got this error.

Hello Susangrace Rapaka,

I'm curious on what problems you had when baking core-image-minimal. You should be able to build with no modifications as long as all the required packages are installed. I'm guessing maybe there were some packages missing.

Before doing a repo sync and then a cleanall to get to the starting state, please start a new terminal session and initialize the build using only the fsl-setup-release.sh. Please use a new build directory.

$ MACHINE=imx6slevk source fsl-setup-release.sh -b <a new build dir> -e x11

Then try with both the core-image-minimal and the meta-toolchain.

Once the build directory is created this way you should be able to start the environment again using the setup-environment scrip but never run both. The fsl-setup-release actually runs the setup-environment script with added configurarions.
