automate-git.py v8_use_external_startup_data problem

[Teno]

Try running commands from the Windows shell (cmd.exe) instead of git bash.

I was running the commands from cmd.exe
I was referring to the instructions at https://www.googlesource.com/new-password.
where it is stated:
Paste the following script into Git Bash.

Hi Teno and magreenblatt,

I have come across the same issues when attempting to build CEF/Chromium for CEF branch 1750. Did you manage to come up with a solution outside of the forum, or is this issue still unresolved?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm running into this issue, too.

When I drop to a previous version of depot_tools (per Marshall's suggestion):

It's possible that your checkout of depot_tools is too new (depot_tools keeps updating and after a while can no longer build older branches successfully). Try checking out an older version of depot_tools:

Code: Select all

cd C:\Users\User\Desktop\depot_tools
git checkout d5a1ab12

And then run automate-git.py with the additional `--no-update --force-build --force-distrib` command-line flags.

I get the following error:

What else do I need to do to get this release to build?

I am now trying to do the same thing and got the the same point with the git crashing. Did you manage to get past the issue somehow?
