Hi,

I had a query and would be grateful if anyone could help me with this.

I was trying to build OpenAFS on Microsoft Windows Vista from the source
code downloaded. The version of source code downloaded was: 1.5.15. I was
following the steps from the README-NT.txt. The command,
"nmake /f NTMakefile install" works fine.
It does say it has build Successfully. But the next step where I want to
create the installables using NSIS source code/installbles is failing.

the command that is failing is:

"nmake /f NTMakefile NSIS"

and i am getting the following error:


--->
!insertmacro: end of ReplaceDLL
File:
"D:\OpenAFS\openaf~1.15\dest\i386_w2k\checked\root.client\usr\vice\etc\afs
plhlp.chm" -> no files found.

'0x1'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"c:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform
SDK\Bin\nmake.e
xe"' : return code '0x2'
Stop.

<---

I am using Visual Studio 2005
Microsoft SDK 2003
WDK 6000
We also downloaded as suggested in README.txt, NSIS installables and the
source tree.

Can someone help me with this?

I would also like to know if there is a Debug build along with the symbol
files available on the site so that we can directly debug the OpenAFS
product for Windows Vista. Is there any other way in which I can debug the
code to have a look at the code flow for my study.


Thanking you in anticipation.

Regards,
Bharat.
