Error when make run_tests on ubuntu14 about cpp-samples HOT 5 CLOSED

Thank you for the bug report. We need your help to reproduce the problem (and then fix it!)

What exactly do you mean by "latest grpc"?
Did you compile and install the master branch? Or v1.6.x? Or v1.4.x?

Can you include the command you used to download grpc?
If you used git to clone the grpc repository, can you include the output from git status and/or git rev-parse HEAD?

Sorry for my incomplete report.

The output of git status is:

On branch v1.4.x
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/v1.4.x'.
nothing to commit, working directory clean

I have tested the build on Ubuntu 14.04 against the v1.4.x version of grpc, it works without problem. You can find the shell script and Dockerfile I used here:

https://github.com/coryan/cpp-docs-samples/tree/fix-issue-24/speech/api/ci

I think the main difference is that we normally compile grpc against the c-ares submodule. That is, grpc is not compiled against libc-ares-dev, it is compiled against the submodule in third_party/cares. The commands to compile and install grpc are:

git clone https://github.com/grpc/grpc.git
cd grpc
git checkout v1.4.x
git submodule update --init
make -j 2
make install
cd third_party/protobuf
make install

Please feel free to reopen this bug if that does not help you.

I suppose ur point is to install the protobuf from the grpc/third_party/protobuf/ instead of https://github.com/google/protobuf/blob/3.1.x/src/README.md

So, I've tried the method which is similar to

WORKDIR /var/tmp/build-grpc
RUN (git clone https://github.com/grpc/grpc.git &&
cd grpc && git checkout v1.4.x && git submodule update --init &&
make -j 2 && make install &&
cd third_party/protobuf && make install)

But there is error when

cd third_party/protobuf
make install

which gives me:

/grpc/third_party/protobuf$ -> make install
make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.

I've checkout the v1.4.x grpc already, did I missed something?Thanks

I did not make that point explicitly, but yes, you want to install the dependencies from grpc/third_party instead of trying to find matching versions from somewhere else.

You say "similar", do you mean to say you used exactly those commands, or something else? If something else, would you mind showing the exact commands that you used?
