This is not a valid link: https:/gitlab.gtri.gatech.edu/applied-systems-laboratory/utilities/-/archive/f663960fe910c1c665f07d34b4ba6d601bd10932/utilities-f663960fe910c1c665f07d34b4ba6d601bd10932.tar.gz

[autoantwort]

I guess the error Message should be better

[Gr8-Dane]

hmm, okay thank you. I must have setup the vcpkg_from_gitlab incorrectly

[Gr8-Dane]

I know that the SHA512 should be the hash and not 0 but I've read that I should set it to 0 and it will give me the correct hash, but the hash isn't showing up when i do the cmake build

[autoantwort]

Probably an old vcpkg-tool version. Update by git pull + ./bootstrap-vcpkg.bat

[Gr8-Dane]

I did what you suggestion:

PS C:\***\vcpkg> git pull
Already up to date.

and still have the same issue @autoantwort

[autoantwort]

What is the result of vcpkg --version?

[Gr8-Dane]

vcpkg package management program version 2024-04-23-d6945642ee5c3076addd1a42c331bbf4cfc97457

[autoantwort]

And what is the full log or the steps to reproduce?

[Gr8-Dane]

      If you are using a proxy, please check your proxy setting. Possible causes are:

      1. You are actually using an HTTP proxy, but setting HTTPS_PROXY variable
         to `https://address:port`. This is not correct, because `https://` prefix
         claims the proxy is an HTTPS proxy, while your proxy (v2ray, shadowsocksr
         , etc..) is an HTTP proxy. Try setting `http://address:port` to both
         HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY instead.

      2. If you are using Windows, vcpkg will automatically use your Windows IE Proxy Settings
         set by your proxy software. See https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg-tool/pull/77
         The value set by your proxy might be wrong, or have same `https://` prefix issue.

      3. Your proxy's remote server is out of service.

      If you've tried directly download the link, and believe this is not a temporary
      download server failure, please submit an issue at https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/issues

[Gr8-Dane]

steps to reproduce

• clone vcpkg to repo
• run installation
• add set(CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake" to cmakelists.txt
• run cmake .. in build folder

[Gr8-Dane]

I also added my custom package "utilities" to the port folder of vcpkg

[Gr8-Dane]

@autoantwort I fixed the link issue and the code will download now, however I still get the same error

[autoantwort]

Can you paste your log

Same error, still not a valid url...
Must be https://

[Gr8-Dane]

So I wonder if its because you have to have an account to download the code. I can download it just fine when I put in that URL

[Gr8-Dane]

do you think that's the problem? How would I give access in vcpkg to get the code

[autoantwort]

Per RFC 2396 it must be //. Probably browsers will fix that for you because it is a common mistake/typo

[autoantwort]

I guess you are doing something wrong because the problem does not exists in this repo

[autoantwort]

Can you show your portfile.cmake

[Gr8-Dane]

I just updated the // and it still gives me the error

oh so it works for you? hmmmmm, interesting. I'll try a few things then

Yes it works for me

right now the thing I'm noticing is that the expected hash keeps changing. Every time I update it to the expected hash it says it expects a different one

[autoantwort]

What happens if you open https://gitlab.gtri.gatech.edu/applied-systems-laboratory/utilities/-/archive/22ece035c1ba6c8b6e434585f535f8a282601d30/utilities-22ece035c1ba6c8b6e434585f535f8a282601d30.tar.gz in your browser. Or try to open the file locally

[Gr8-Dane]

If i put that into my browser, it downloads a tar.gz file, which I then unzip and find all the expected files and folders in

[Gr8-Dane]

could this problem be due to the fact that the repo is password protected as part of my organization? perhaps I need to put some kind of sign-in functionality for vcpkg to access the repo?

[Gr8-Dane]

also, my organization uses a vpn, could that be part of the problem?

[autoantwort]

could this problem be due to the fact that the repo is password protected as part of my organization? perhaps I need to put some kind of sign-in functionality for vcpkg to access the repo?

Yeah. If you open the link in a private browser window you probably have to log in.

also, my organization uses a vpn, could that be part of the problem?

If you have no specific setup for your browser then windows should use it automatically

[autoantwort]

You can pass AUTHORIZATION_TOKEN to vcpkg_from_gitlab
