Build fails

[adventmedia]

Running the build command as specified in the readme results in this error:

Fatal error: Call-time pass-by-reference has been removed in /Users/andrew/Downloads/WebYep-master/release-building/make_release.php on line 150
Home-Mac:WebYep-master andrew$ release-building/make_release.php

Hi Andrew what are you trying to build? a new dreamweaver plugin a rapid weaver plugin or the whole lot
Kind regards Max

[adventmedia]

the whole lot - don't need the plugins. just executing the build command as explained in the readme

[obdev]

Please edit the script make_release.php and remove all occurrences of &$ with just $ (in this particular script only). Please tell me whether that fixes the problem.

[adventmedia]

ok yes, that fixes the problem. Now I need to know what version to specify - where is that information? Am I just supposed to guess? Is 1.7.2 the most recent?

[adventmedia]

I tried running this:
release-building/make_release.php -r 1.7.2 -omitDW -omitRW

Ran partially then aborted:

fatal error in line 316 - aborting

[maxfancourt]

yep I am getting the same error line 316

Max-Fancourts-Mac-Pro:GitHub-WY max$ 

and checking that corresponds with

system("cp -R -p ../webyep-dwx/Shared/WebYep/Help/english $sDocuFolder", $iRet); if ($iRet != 0) fatal(__LINE__);

I checked and that directory does exist

Intertesting...
I've fixed the call-time pass by reference arguments (and pushed them to the server, BTW), and the script succeeds without error on my computer.

Cp complains that webyep-dwx/Shared/WebYep/Help/english does not exist, and you say it does exist. Have you checked uppercase/lowercase spelling?

I think I found a solution to this problem, which I also had. I replaced:

system("cp -R -p ../webyep-dwx/Shared/WebYep/Help/english $sDocuFolder", $iRet); if ($iRet != 0) fatal(LINE);

with

system("cp -R -p '$sourceRootDir/webyep-dwx/Shared/WebYep/Help/english' '$sDocuFolder'", $iRet); if ($iRet != 0) fatal(LINE);

and everything works fine now.
