FileZilla Forums

The following error message is displayed when the latest filezilla is compiled:

Administrator@HWL-2020 MINGW64 ~/filezilla
# make
Making all in locales
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/Administrator/filezilla/locales'
/home/Administrator/prefix/bin/wxrc -g -e ./../src/interface/resources/xrc/*.xrc > "resources.h~" || exit 1
make[1]: *** [Makefile:586: resources.h] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/Administrator/filezilla/locales'
make: *** [Makefile:636: all-recursive] Error 1

Looks like you do not have a working wxrc. Make sure wxWidgets is installed correctly and the tool is usable.

I directly opened the FileZilla.sln file in vs2019 to compile, and the link error was as follows:

The static library libfilezilla.lib is also compiled with vs2019, and the static library libfilezilla.lib is associated with libgnutls-30.lib; libhogweed-6.lib; The libnettle-8.lib library is generated by the tool dlltool

Don't use Visual Studio. The only officially sanctioned way to compile FileZilla is through autotools-based build system.
