Hi Prasanta, the COFF isue is a known problem with VS2010 after installing VS2012 or .NET 4.5.1. There exist various workarounds - just google for "LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid".
The easiest and fastes solution is to remove the bad version of "cvtres.exe" which is causing the problem as explained in the second answer at the stackowerflow question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10888391/error-link-fatal-error-lnk1123-failure-during-conversion-to-coff-file-inval Regards, Volker On Tue, Apr 14, 2015 at 9:54 AM, prasanta sadhukhan <prasanta.sadhuk...@oracle.com> wrote: > Hi All, > > I also faced this problem when I update my forest through "sh get_source.sh" > and run "configure", "make clean" followed by "make" > > Creating library jvm.lib and object jvm.exp > LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid > or corrupt > NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\progra~2\micros~1.0\vc\bin\link.exe' : return > code '0x463' > Stop. > NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cd' : return code '0x2' > Stop. > NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio > 10.0\VC\BIN\nmake.EXE"' : return code '0x2' > Stop. > make[5]: *** [generic_build2] Error 2 > Makefile:230: recipe for target 'generic_build2' failed > Makefile:177: recipe for target 'product' failed > make[4]: *** [product] Error 2 > HotspotWrapper.gmk:44: recipe for target > '/cygdrive/c/jdk9/client/build/windows-x86-normal-server-release/hotspot/_hotspot.timestamp' > failed > make[3]: *** > [/cygdrive/c/jdk9/client/build/windows-x86-normal-server-release/hotspot/_hotspot.timestamp] > Error 1 > make[2]: *** [hotspot] Error 1 > make/Main.gmk:193: recipe for target 'hotspot' failed > make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... > > Regards > Prasanta > > On 4/13/2015 3:28 PM, Volker Simonis wrote: >> >> Hi Phil, >> >> are you sure this is the first error? >> >> Can you start a new, clean build with only one build job and post >> both, the configure line and output along with the build log (at least >> LOG=debug). >> >> Have you changed you Cygwin version or are you using a new >> disk/network share for your sources/output directory? >> >> I recently had two Windows build problems: >> >> - wrong files permission.
