Cmake fails while configuring OpenCV












1















I'm trying to buid OpenCV and use it in Qt. I have installed all required packages for OpenCV and Qt, after that I tried too run cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local /media/d/Install/opencv-2.4.8 but I got errors:

    Are you executing cmake from a build directory also on /media? If so, I suspect the problem is that it is on a filesystem such as NTFS that doesn't support Unix-style permission bits (or is mounted noexec). The compiler/ABI tests are likely trying to create and test minimal executables e.g. ./CMakeFiles/CompilerIdCXX/a.out or ./CMakeFiles/CMakeDetermineCompilerABI_C.bin and are failing if those don't execute.

  • @steeldriver I moved opencv directory to the ext4 partition, now it seems to be compiling correctly. make still in process, but I think everything will be fine. I used to build opencv from ntfs partition on another computer, so I did not even think that the filesystem can cause such problems

I solved it by removing the build folder in which I had previously started cmake but cancelled it during installation.
Now it works.
