Created attachment 2875 [details] 2 log files - the one with error, the one before. Let Hob run to build packages overnight. This morning PC was frozen, so I have to reboot it. Not sure whether the error was reason or result of frozen PC. Nevertheless I can't come out of this loop that "Hob cannot build recipes" The generated log file is attached. How to overcome this message? I also added log file from previous afternoon, which logs strange to me, as it is huge (so I compressed these files). As busybox is an important part I guess under normal circumstances there is no problem. So my question is - how to go ahead if something fails? Also the additional selected recipes are not stored, so after opening hob again, I have to reconfigured recipes.
Hi Arno, I'm afraid Hob is almost deprecated at this point, so I am not sure we will be able to fix this issue. If you are using Yocto Project 2.0, you might want to try Toaster. This video tutorial shows some of the Toaster functionality https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3gDg75FwFo There is also a manual here: http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/toaster-manual/toaster-manual.html#toaster-manual-dev-notes with setup instruction and a list of additional video tutorials http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/toaster-manual/toaster-manual.html#web-interface-videos Any questions, feel free to get in touch via the irc channel or the Toaster mailing list https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/toaster

The best assessment would be that rebooting a frozen PC corrupted files that were not closed properly. Even the "good" ("before") log file shows file corruption at the end. The log with the error ("after") shows the attempt to continue with previous configuration, but the configuration is aborted, most likely because it ran into corrupted files. The safe/prudent thing would be to delete the whole build folder and start the build all over again. I will close this bug as it is not possible to reliably reproduce. Moreover, Hob has been deprecated (unsupported) for a while now. However, if the problem re-occurs and you are able to list steps in order to reproduce it, please re-open the bug.
I will verified as wontfix since Hob is deprecated.
