Troubleshooting

Compilation problems on Linux

gcc not found

cannot find -lstdc++

If you receive errors of this type your computer is missing some files to allow ethdo to build. To resolve this, run the following command:

sudo apt install build-essential libstdc++6

and then try to install ethdo again.

Compilation problems on Windows

gcc not found

If you receive errors of this type your computer is missing some files to allow ethdo to build. To resolve this install gcc by following the instructions at http://mingw-w64.org/doku.php

ethdo not found after installing

This is usually due to an incorrectly set path. Go installs its binaries (such as ethdo) in a particular location. The defaults are:

• Linux, Mac: $HOME/go/bin
• Windows: %USERPROFILE%\go\bin

You must add these paths to be able to access ethdo. To add the path on linux or OSX type:

export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin

and on Windows type:

setx /M path "%PATH%;%USERPROFILE%\go\bin"
