Creating package failed, file name or path too long

[jkosonen]

Since I updated to QtSdk 1.2 I'm getting this when building my project

/sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim/sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim/sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim/sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim/sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim/sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim/var/lib/dpkg/status: File or path name too long

Packaging Error: Command 'c:/qtsdk/madde/bin/mad dpkg-buildpackage -nc -uc -us' failed.Exit code: 3
Error while building project Project(target: Harmattan)

for some reason /sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim/sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim is there three times in the path, how should I fix that?

If cleaning the project doesn't help (qmake distclean), try to remove .pro.user file from your project directory.
If you create a new apps, are you able to build them?

No, it says the same if I try with new project:

and removing pro.user didn't help either

if going by this post, then solution is to re-install the SDk : http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=4510

Already installed 1.2 twice, now I try to go back 1.1.4

[jkosonen]

Now I'm getting with 1.1.4

/sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim/sysroots/harmattan_sysroot_10.2011.34-1_slim/var/lib/dpkg/status: No such file or directory

argh, any ideas how to fix this?

Then the problem is in the SDK. I googled and I've seen this is a common issue on Windows.
I took a look at the script shipped with the SDK but to be honest SYSROOT could come from many parts.
You can use directly madde to build or just try to reinstall the SDK.
On linux the configuration file is located in $HOME/.config/Nokia. No idea where it's on windows. Maybe removing it helps.

Try to remove 1.1.4 before installing 1.2. And make sure "clean settings .. " options is checked before installing 1.2

ah.. 1st post in 9 years

I'm going from one error to another.

debian/rules build
debian/rules:18: *** missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8 spaces?). Stop.
dpkg-buildpackage: failure: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2
Packaging Error: Command 'c:/qtsdk/madde/bin/mad dpkg-buildpackage -nc -uc -us' failed.Exit code: 2

Edit:

I removed qtc_packaging folder and it started finally to work.

[altunero]

1st but not last

[gnuton]

Makefile was corrupted. Removing qtc_packaging, Qt creator has created a new debian/rules file for you.
The problem is well explained in the error message you pasted. Basically any line in the debian/rules file have to start with a TAB.

madlib/perl5/Dpkg.pmur $admindir = "$ENV{SYSROOT_DIR}$ENV{SYSROOT_DIR}$ENV{SYSROOT_DIR}$ENV{SYSROOT_DIR}$ENV{SYSROOT_DIR}/var/lib/dpkg";

When I removed the extra sysroot dir entries from Dpkg.pm, then things started to work again.
