Error running gclient sync --revision

[ianafa]

Hi
Im trying to build cef 1650 but I cant get this command in the manual to work:

gclient sync --revision 31.0.1650.57 --jobs16

if i run it normally i get this ERROR:

src (ERROR)

now I did some searching and it was suggested to add 'src':None to gclient. I did this and got this Error(sorry for the length):

what should i do? I have tried automate.py but it came up with errors too:

what can i do to solve this?

[magreenblatt]

Try automate-git.py, not automate.py. Post the full command-line that you're using. Also, try a filesystem path without strange characters (don't use dashes, etc).

[ianafa]

Thank you marshal. ill try that and update if anything comes up.

[ianafa]

so this is the command i use :

python d:\automate\automate-git.py --download-dir=d:\chromium

This is were the process stops:

What next?

[magreenblatt]

What do you mean the process stops? Is there some error message?

[ianafa]

it just stopped! no error messages! It does sound strange. but i started the download last night and left it running. when i came back in this morning it had stopped just like that. that could be some kind of a OS fault though since i have not restarted it for a while.

i'm trying with a different computer to see if it works. I will update about what happens.

[magreenblatt]

What version of Visual Studio are you building with?

[ianafa]

on this system(the later one) it vs express 2013.

the other one is vs pro 2012.

[ianafa]

This is the error i got on the vs 2012.

I have set the variables as :

set GYP_GENERATORS=ninja,msvs-ninja
set GYP_MSVS_VERSION=2010 (also: set GYP_MSVS_VERSION=2012, set GYP_MSVS_VERSION=2013) but none of it made any difference.
