compile make related problem

Jayesh shah — Thu, 24 Jan 2002 20:02:51 GMT

Hi,

I am getting the following error while trying to make
(compile):

./yacc_gen ../../fst cbox
Make: Cannot load ./yacc_gen. Stop.

However, when i try to execute the above line on command prompt it works
./yacc_gen ../../fst cbox

yacc_gen is a small shell script to generate .c files from special formatted files.
It has read execute bits set.

Any ideas/help/suggestions?

Thanks,
Jayesh

Hi:

You should have also seen a numerical exit code as well. Look that errno value up. It appears that your yacc_gen script is not in the PATH when you run make. I would change the entry to the absolute path for yacc_gen and see if that runs then see about changing the PATH. Also, very important point (but not your problem here), make is one of the few UNIX utilities that is very sensitive to leading characters. Make sure that each command under a given rule is preceded by exactly one and no other whitespace.
