I've been trying to get phoenix building on my system with SVG and with flat chrome files (it doesn't like to build straight through, I don't know how the seamonkey tree stays green through clobber builds). However, I get the following message that I can't figure out how to fix:
+++ making chrome d:/mozilla/toolkit => ../dist/bin/chrome/toolkit.jar The system cannot find the file specified. Preprocessing of content/viewZoomOverlay.js failed: 1 at d:/mozilla/config/make-jars.pl line 360, <STDIN> line 2. make[3]: *** [libs] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/d/mozilla/toolkit' make[2]: *** [tier_9] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/d/mozilla' make[1]: *** [default] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/d/mozilla' make: *** [build] Error 2
I'm not sure exactly what the problem is. I checked the code and think it has something to do with my using cygwin (perl isn't a language I code in and really isn't terribly readable). I was building mozilla last December just fine with this setup, so it's somewhat of a mystery to me why this is occuring, especially since I'm building with chrome flat.
I run into the same problem just now. Almost the same message, but I have no idea if I have SVG and flat chrome files
enabled. I just added the .mozconfig as stated from the phoenix web page, run ./configure and then gmake.
For info I am on SuSE linux 7.3 and use gcc2.95.3 and here is the message I get:
I can't find 'content/viewZoomOverlay.js' anywhere. I have just notice that when I configure, the configure script
complain that it cannot create a makefile in 'browser' and in 'toolkit'. and those two folders are created empty. Is it normal?

I did set MOZ_PHOENIX=1 in .mozconfig but did not do the 'make -f client.mk' my fault for not reading properly
the instruction on the mozilla build page.
I suppose it is equivalent to do
cvs co mozilla/browser and
cvs co mozilla/toolkit
as indicated on the linux from scratch hint web page (http://linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/hints/mozilla.txt)
