ERROR while adding meta-oic layer to an Intel Edison image

Question

I was trying to add meta-oic layer to a standard Intel Edison image using the procedure mentioned here.

However after making the required changes in both bblayers.conf and local.conf, when I use the bitbake edison-image command, I am getting the following errors:

NOTE: Resolving any missing task queue dependencies

*ERROR1*    
 Nothing RPROVIDES 'nfs-utilsiotivity-resource-samples' (but /home/shivappa/work/edison_brd/edison-src/meta-intel-edison/meta-intel-edison-distro/recipes-core/images/edison-image.bb RDEPENDS on or otherwise requires it)

NOTE: Runtime target 'nfs-utilsiotivity-resource-samples' is unbuildable, removing...Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: ['nfs-utilsiotivity-resource-samples']**

*ERROR2*  
Required build target 'edison-image' has no buildable providers.
Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: ['edison-image', 'nfs-utilsiotivity-resource-samples']

I may be committing a very trivial mistake but still I haven't been able to resolve this. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

You have a typo somewhere: 'nfs-utilsiotivity-resource-samples' should be 'nfs-utils iotivity-resource-samples'.

Most likely reason for a bug like this is using IMAGE_INSTALL_append and missing the space in the beginning, e.g.:

IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " iotivity-resource-samples"

Check you local.conf for a missing space.
