failed to run custom build command for `boring-sys v4.10.2` (Windows 11 WSL2 arch linux)

[sylann]

Similar issues:

• boring-sys compile failed on windows #242
• Failure when compiling boring-sys v2.1.0 on Windows #121

The output:

cargo run
   Compiling boring-sys v4.10.2
error: failed to run custom build command for `boring-sys v4.10.2`

Caused by:
  process didn't exit successfully: `/home/***/***/target/debug/build/boring-sys-21189a854ea148ad/build-script-main` (exit status: 101)
  --- stdout

  note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

This line seems odd:

"where one of these files can be found (invalid: [])"

System information:

• The computer is a Windows 11 Pro.
• The build is executed on WSL2 (Arch Linux, variant of my company).

I don't install boring-sys directly, it is an indirect dependency of jwt-simple.

jwt-simple v0.12.10
├── boring v4.10.2
    ├── boring-sys v4.10.2

Final note, the project builds without any issue on MacOS Sonoma.

@sylann I am facing the same issue, I have to downgrade for now

This is somethig wrong with applying patches during bulid time. If you can open a separate issue with more details on how you're building then I can take a look

Where is LLVM installed on your system? And what is LIBRARY_PATH set to?

[Asenlan]

You need to download LLVM and Set the LIBCLANG_PATH environment variable to your LLVM binary path: D:\LLVM\bin

[rushilmehra]

Oh yeah I meant LIBCLANG_PATH not LIBRARY_PATH

This problem is on macOS, not windows

[0x676e67]

I suspect that your docker image has not been installed git, so it can't initialize the build source code directory. You should give a detailed compilation environment, which will help us solve the problem. Instead of just giving an error log. In this way, no one knows what happened to you.

I installed LLVM for macOS and see the same problem.

I can build and run the rust project. I just cannot build a docker image.

As @0x676e67 mentioned I think your issue is unrelated to LLVM - you're likely missing git inside the docker image, so applying custom patches (even if there are no patches to apply) will panic. Can you try installing git in the container?

[bill-habermaas]

I have created a simple project that demonstrates the error and created a repo for it on GitHub.
It is public and found at https://github.com/bill-habermaas/jwt-playtime1.

[0x676e67]

on ubuntu/debian

sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake perl pkg-config libclang-dev musl-tools git -y

cargo build --release

[bill-habermaas]

installing cmake does not fix the issue. There is no problem except when building a docker image.

cargo build --release makes no difference.
