Windows build instructions

Hi,

I'm getting some errors when I try to run the build install command, the build and tests run successfully but when I run the command below to install I get the following error:

Installed some dependencies:
cmake - 3.27.0
openssl - 1.1.1
GTest - 1.13.0
VS - 2019
Qt - 6.2.4
and other stuff...

cmake --build build --config RelWithDebInfo --target installer

About the message The system cannot find the path specified, I already verify the file build\src\app\RelWithDebInfo\web-eid.exe and de same was created in the directory.

I noticed that the file installer.rule was generated empty, is that right?

Thanks.

Hi Fabio!

I'm not sure what exactly causes the error, but as we know for certain that Windows builds work in GitHub, I would recommend that you check out the build job definition here and try to carefully replicate it step-by-step in your own machine.

Does that solve your problem?
