[serkan erdogan]

hii all,

i am trying to begin code development with oe and following the
instructions on this wiki-page for a clean start-up.

http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardAndOpenEmbeddedGit

At the end of article the "bitbake console-image" command gives me that
output:

****************************************************************************************************************
ERROR: Openembedded's config sanity checker detected a potential
misconfiguration.
Either fix the cause of this error or at your own risk disable
the checker (see sanity.conf).
Following is the list of potential problems / advisories:

Error, TMPDIR has changed location. You need to either move it
back to /home/ns/oe/tmp or rebuild

****************************************************************************************************************

i could not pass this step so colud not have any image to try on my
beagleboard. If there anybody have experience with this error or idea,
help me please.

Best Regards,
Serkan Erdogan.

Try removing your OE tmpdir and starting over. It sounds like you moved it.

I intentionally moved my TMPDIR and triggered a similar problem.
Here is how I fixed it:
  edit the saved_tmpdir file under the new TMPDIR location.

Warning: Only do this if you've moved the entire TMPDIR.  Otherwise you probably should do a full rebuild (remove everything under TMPDIR).

Thanks for sharing, it worked for me!

Deleting your old build dir helps too
