I am trying to use conan in a CLion project. Conan generates a conanbuildinfo.cmake file. In this file, it's trying to read another file, generated by conan too, and called conaninfo.txt.
It's not able to find it, and cmake prints the following error :
CMake Error at D:/Sources/vodrm-ecmg_c++/build/conanbuildinfo.cmake:663 (file):
file failed to open for reading (No such file or directory):
/cygdrive/d/Sources/myproject/D:/Sources/myproject/build/conaninfo.txt
As you can see the error is saying cmake could not find the requested file. But it actullay can, because the following code :
if (EXISTS ${_CONAN_CURRENT_DIR}/conaninfo.txt)
message("Found :" ${_CONAN_CURRENT_DIR}/conaninfo.txt)
endif()
file (READ "${_CONAN_CURRENT_DIR}/conaninfo.txt" CONANINFO)
Prints :
Found :D:/Sources/project/build/conaninfo.txt
It's totally contradicting since cmake is finding the file, but not when using file command.
Did anyone encountered this bug, if it's one, before? Any solution? I really don't see what I am doing wrong, since this file is generated by conan.
By the way, I am using cmake version 3.6.2.
Thanks in advance.

I am using Qt Creator as IDE and MSVC 2019.
I built and installed the pagmo library from the source. Now I am trying to use it for my project.
Even though the installation seems fine, when I try to load it I get strange errors, telling me that "pagmo" is not found. In particular:
error:
By not providing "FindPagmo.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "Pagmo",
but CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Pagmo" with any
of the following names:
PagmoConfig.cmake
pagmo-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "Pagmo" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"Pagmo_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If
"Pagmo" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has
been installed.
In my CMakeLists.txt I have set the following command:
find_package(Pagmo REQUIRED)
Now, as far as I know FindPagmo.cmake does not exist, BUT I am giving as input parameter Pagmo_DIR, which contains the file pagmo-config.cmake. I can't understand why CMake is not finding it. I also tried to set CMAKE_MODULE_PATH to the same folder but nothing changed.
Does anybody have suggestions on how to solve this problem?
I am setting pagmo directory as follows:
-DPagmo_DIR = C:\Lib\pagmo\install\debug\lib\cmake\pagmo
in that folder I have the following files:
Findpagmo_IPOPT.cmake;
pagmo_export.cmake;
pagmo_export-debug.cmake;
pagmo-config.cmake;
pagmo-config-version.cmake;
PagmoFindBoost.cmake
So, when I include the toolchain file sometimes it is a hit and sometimes it is a miss. I'm able to build a target and all but the problem is that I'm not able to launch the target in vscode or clion. The error verbose reads unable to find the target.
Is there something wrong with including the toolchain file?
I am working on a project on c++ and need to execute a CMakeLists.txt file to run it. I installed cmake, doxygen, cmake-curses-gui and make using sudo. Then I tried running the file.
The following is a part of the cmake code -
if (BUILD_DOC)
find_package(Doxygen)
configure_file(${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/doc/Doxyfile.in
${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/doc/Doxyfile #ONLY)
add_custom_target(${PROJECT_NAME}_doc ALL ${DOXYGEN_EXECUTABLE}
${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/doc/Doxyfile)
endif ()
Here, it gave me an error message saying that
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:77 (configure_file): configure_file
Problem configuring file
Just so that you know, line 77 is configure_file(${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/doc/Doxyfile.in .
If I add AND DOXYGEN_FOUND to the if condition, it doesn't execute anything at all which means that it couldn't find a doxygen executable. But as I already told, I already installed doxygen.
I am new to cmake. So, could anyone please help me with this
Edit:
The OS I am using is Ubuntu 16.04
After I put if(DOXYGEN_FOUND) after the command find_package(doxygen) it executed, but I got the same cmake error in line 78 instead of line 77
Also, now since I got enough information from the comments, I just realized that my problem is more towards finding where the Doxyfile.in file lies than configuring the file. Could anyonee help me with it?
The error is clear
configure_file Problem configuring file
CMake's configure_file(<input> <output>) command is used to copy input file to ouput and replacing #VARIABLES# in input by the corresponding value.
configure_file(${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/doc/Doxyfile.in ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/doc/Doxyfile #ONLY)
You have to find why this process failed:
Make sure ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR} contains the correct path to your project, and make sure the file Doxyfile.in is is the right folder (<project dir>/doc)
Make sure content of Doxyfile.in does not contains any syntax error, in particular with #VARIABLES# that needs to be replaced by their CMake value.
Note that this error has nothing to do with Doxygen on your system, and the fact that CMake actually found it or not.
so I've tried to use the cmake on ogre to install it but every time I use the command in the directory build :
cmake ..
I've got this error which show up :
CMake Error: The source directory "/home/.../TPs/ogre" does not exist.
Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.
and after doing :
cmake .. -DCMAKE_MODULE_PATH=/usr/share/OGRE/cmake/modules/
the error transformed in :
CMake Error: The source directory "/home/.../TPs/ogre" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt.
Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.
although it got a CMakeLists.txt.
I've got cmake 2.8.XXX version and python 2.7.XXX, I've tried to use cmake-gui but it also gave me an error about the CMakeCache ...
So do you have any advice?
EDIT : Ok it works, moral of the story, even if you strongly want it, don't ever put '\' in folder names !
Be sure you have activated your virtual env. If you are not, then delete previus build folder. Activate virtual env you want. Make new build folder inside opencv. Then execute cmake.
I'm trying to compile a program in CMake but I'm getting this error.
By not providing "FindVTK.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "VTK", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "VTK" (requested
version 6.1) with any of the following names:
VTKConfig.cmake
vtk-config.cmake
I can't find the relevant files (VTKConfig.cmake or vtk-config.cmake) on the machine but do have VTKConfig.cmake.in (which also doesn't work).
Does anyone know where I can download the file from, or what I might be doing wrong.
It seems like you just have the VTK source code but haven't built it yet. VTKConfig.cmake.in is a template used by CMake to generate the VTKConfig.cmake file in the build and install directory. Look at http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Building to see how to build VTK.
When you have successfully built VTK you can give CMake a hint where to look for VTK with the VTK_DIR-parameter:
cmake -DVTK_DIR=/path/to/vtk/build-directory /path/to/your/source-directory
If you have successfully built VTK, you would end up with a VTK-Release-build folder containing all the build files, one of which is VTKConfig.cmake. Your program is not able to find this file. You just need to set an environment variable named VTK_DIR before running your program. You can do so by running:
export VTK_DIR=/path/to/VTK-Release-build/
"FindVTK.cmake"the file of cmake is made in build directry.
please add this Path. export VTK_DIR=/path/VTK-Release-version/build
