DDE 26 on RPi - Link is hanging around

Dear all

I have a registered version of DDE v26 (the full one, not the NutPI one).
I installed it on three machines:

• RPi Model B (Risc OS 5.21 5.23)
• OpenPandora (Risc OS 5.22)
• BeagleBoard-xM (Risc OS 5.22)

The same project perfectly compiles on the OpenPandora and BB-xM using !Make.
But on the RPi, the Link phase just hang around and never completes. I have to stop the process via the Task Manager window.

If anyone has a clue on what could be wrong…

Thank you.

François

Just guessing, the failure is with OS5.23, the working versions are both OS5.22. I am thinking Zero Page errors perhaps, not that that alone should not cause a stall. So what is the date of the OS5.23 and what is the status of the ZeroPain module.

In the absence of any better guesses a minimal test piece would help.

To try my luck I used a full DDE26 !Make on a Mk2 Raspberry Pi to do a simple “Hello World” and the ‘link’ stage hurt but did build.

P.S. This seems to be a first time around thing, using the created Makefile is Pain free.

Sorry, the RPi is running version 5.21 (RC14) and not 5.23.

I retried with a very simple “Hello World” and the linking phase just hang around and never completes :(

I am completely stucked

Regards

I don’t see any problem using rc14, which doesn’t help much.

Hello

I finally took the hard way and format my SD Card and made a fresh install of Risc OS 5.21 RC14. I reinstall DDE v26 and it now works. Could it be that one of the applications I installed previously was interfering?
Now, I have to reinstall all the other applications…

I will see if and when the issue comes back.

Regards

François
