Bambuser ffmpeg - "arm-linux-androideabi-gcc is unable to create an executable file."
I know this may be possible duplicate of some questions. but answers for those threads are not helping me.
I am trying to compile ffmpeg library for android using Bambuser's ffmpeg.
I downloaded Archive for client versions 1.3.7 to 1.6.0. from bambuser.
I followed instruction given in REAME.
While running ./build.sh i came across following error
arm-linux-androideabi-gcc is unable to create an executable file.
C compiler test failed.
If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from SVN. If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
[email protected] mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.freenode.net.
Include the log file "config.log" produced by configure as this will help
solving the problem.
Here are last few lines of config.log of ffmpeg
mktemp is /bin/mktemp
check_ld
check_cc
BEGIN /tmp/ffconf.qflVj27Q.c
1 int main(void){ return 0; }
END /tmp/ffconf.qflVj27Q.c
arm-linux-androideabi-gcc --sysroot=/home/chaitanya/android/android-ndk-r5b/platforms/android-8/arch-arm -c -o /tmp/ffconf.gc6um0Ki.o /tmp/ffconf.qflVj27Q.c
arm-linux-androideabi-gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory
C compiler test failed.
in tmp i do not find any relative folder or file as per config.log says "ffconf.qflVj27Q.c".
I am doing this on
1. Ubuntu 11.10
2. OpenJDK 6
3. android-ndk-r5b
NOte:
I only have API-10 Installed in eclipse. (if it matters :D)
What could be the solution for this?
Answer
I finally found the problem with my setup when facing this same issue... Looking at the arm-build.sh script, I started following the script. Notice the "TOOLCHAIN=..." path.
Originally the path was:
TOOLCHAIN=echo $NDK/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuilt/*-x86
When I went to verify this path exists, I noticed that it did not. I think the reason is that I have a 64-bit build.
My path is actually: .../toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuilt/linux-x86_64
What I ended up doing was copying the folder, and renaming it to "linux-x86" and now all is compiling.
Hope this helps someone!
