Hello,

This is Zaid Ghansar studying in the OSD600 course in the fall 2008 semester as part of the CPA curriculum.

September 17th, 08 - Wednesday

So I started my first build, went fairly smooth, just was confused in the beginning about what to download as the pre-requisites for windows. Little bit of reading and got that figured out.

The only other issue I had was even after updating to the Vista SDK, their appeared to be some vista related files missing. After googling the error message, I got a solution to add the following line into the .mozconfig file:

"ac_add_options --disable-vista-sdk-requirements"

after which the build went flawlessly.

 My Firefox 3.0 build had the following ".mozconfig" file:
 
 # My first mozilla config
 mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/../obj-@CONFIG_GUESS@
 ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
 mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=browser
 ac_add_options --enable-libxul
 ac_add_options --disable-tests 
 ac_add_options --disable-mochitest 
 ac_add_options --disable-vista-sdk-requirements
