All, Since I already have Java on my machine all I needed to do was include the path in the MSYS2 terminal (on top of adding the sbt path). I did some testing with and without valid changes and I am receiving expected results, so I believe I am in a good state to progress. Thank you all for the help!
Something interesting I found to note is: If you can successfully compile once in the MSYS2 terminal, it appears that Powershell is able to compile as expected. Steps I took to resolve the problem: 1. Add sbt to PATH variable in MSYS2 terminal (export PATH=$PATH:pathOfSbt) 2. Add Java to PATH variable in MSYS2 terminal (export PATH=$PATH:pathOfJava) (This just adds sbt and Java temporarily. I need to figure out a way to permanently add the two to the PATH variable so that I don't need to add them each time I start a MSYS2 terminal.)

Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification.] Daffodil claims to support building on Windows, with build instructions in our README. I would suggest we not give up by switching to Linux, and instead to try resolve this problem. It likely means part of our build instructions are either incorrect or unclear. It would be valuable to get this resolved. Varun, I *think* you may need to run the commands in MSYS2, I don't think we currently support powershell. Based on the error you got in MSYS2, it sounds like you need to install Java, we usually suggest downloading and installation OpenJDK following the instructions here: https://adoptopenjdk.net/ On 5/25/22 4:29 PM, Sood, Harinder wrote: > Varun, > Please use Linux, You can request a VM for Linux from IT, but get > guidance from Steve Lawrence. > > > > Sincerely, > Harinder Sood |Director (Program Manager) > > [email protected] > M 240 805 4219 > Work: 410 290-1411 x122 > Connect with us! > > > > The information contained in this transmission is for the personal and > confidential use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed. > If the reader is not the intended recipient, you are hereby notified > that any review, dissemination, or copying of this communication is > strictly prohibited.
