bitbake build errors

[nataut]

Hi All.

I'm attempting to build an OpenSTLinux based software using a virtual machine VMWARE UBUNTU 16.2.5 build-20904516

Using the command "bitbake -v -k <my_recipe_bb_name_file>" i have the error message: " ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES '–v' "

Using the command "bitbake -k <my_recipe_bb_name_file>" i have the error message: " ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES '–k' "

Using the command "bitbake <my_recipe_bb_name_file>" i have not errors but the compilation after many houres fails 

Using the command "bitbake -c cleanall <my_recipe_bb_name_file>" i have the error message: " ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES '–c' "

If I use another PC with the same virtual machine and the same "layers" folder, I have no errors

Why? 

Thanks

I found the problem.

The symbol in “–v�? and "–k", before "v" and "k" has to be “-“ and not �?–“.

Thanks

Hi @nataut​ 

VMWARE 16.2.5 build-20904516 -> is the version of your VMware Workstation.

Which Ubuntu LTS you run ?

With OpenSTLinux release ?

Thanks,
