Hello, I am trying to compile the demo program that comes with the devkitppc. When I press ALT+1, the bottom of the notepad says "make" it pauses for about 30secs. Then, it says something like '"/c/documents not found" "No command to make documents" "something something [Error 2]" I have tried to compile freecell and wadmanager. Freecell gives me the same error, wadmanager has a different problem. I do not care about that. What do I have to do to fix this?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2453#msg-2453Sat, 06 Jun 2026 01:25:51 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,3306#msg-3306 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,3306#msg-3306
It took me almost an hour to get the tool chain working to the point that it would compile the "Hello World" .dol file. I've used these tools before for GC years ago. They are very dependent on the correct location of all files needed by whatever you are compiling. Your second error sounds like you are missing files in the appropriate locations.

The problem for me was the installer file (devkitProUpdater-1.4.7.exe) was not downloading the files correctly. I was ending up with only small parts of many of the required files. The installer would appear to unpack the files correctly (no errors) but after examining the folder structure it was obvious that many files were missing. This happened several times on two different Windows boxes.

I ended up manually downloading the required files to a different folder (search on Sourceforge). I ran the installer, and as it downloaded the incomplete files I replaced them with the complete files from the separate folder. The installer then unpacked all of the files to the appropriate folders and made the necessary changes to the Windows environment.

I don't know why the installer was not downloading the files correctly (could be our firewall), but I would check to see if that is your problem.]]> fogbank CodingSat, 01 Nov 2008 01:01:47 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2564#msg-2564 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2564#msg-2564 blasty CodingMon, 13 Oct 2008 09:26:55 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2468#msg-2468 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2468#msg-2468 henke37 CodingFri, 10 Oct 2008 15:40:04 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2459#msg-2459 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2459#msg-2459 WiiPhlex CodingFri, 10 Oct 2008 07:46:52 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2458#msg-2458 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2458#msg-2458Another problem:

Any ideas?

Now, I just have to learn hot to code c++.

It shouldn't be too hard. I took a class in VB and /know/ html.

Thanks.]]> paul.strickler CodingThu, 09 Oct 2008 18:39:26 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2454#msg-2454 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2454#msg-2454 AerialX CodingThu, 09 Oct 2008 17:58:10 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2453#msg-2453 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,2453,2453#msg-2453I am trying to compile the demo program that comes with the devkitppc.
