Multiple Errors When Following Hello World Tutorial

[TheBlackMezek]

Hello,

I've been trying to create the Hello World tutorial project, but I'm stuck on one of the last steps. When I run fprime-util build -j4 in HelloWorldDeployment, it ends with a slew of errors:

I've gone through the tutorial twice and it did this both times. I apologize if this is a very noob-ish question, but what might be going wrong? I'm not making much progress debugging it on my own.

Fprime doesn't support spaces in filepaths (i.e. C Projects). Unfortunately I don't think fprime-utils provides an good error message, so compilation will just crash with confusing errors like what you're seeing

[thomas-bc]

The newer version of fprime-bootstrap should error out if the full path has space/quotes and the likes. I am surprised it didn't in your case. Can you check pip freeze | grep fprime-bootstrap ?

[TheBlackMezek]

Thank you! It was indeed the file path. I changed C Projects to C_Projects and re-did the tutorial and now it builds and runs perfectly!

@thomas-bc The version number from pip freeze | grep fprime-bootstrap is 1.1.1
