protoc buffer error

[parveenk...@gmail.com]

Hi All,

I am new to gRPC. I was going through installation steps. I have golang installed 1.5v and i have installed installed protoc and protoc-gen-go.

go get -u github.com/golang/protobuf/protoc-gen-go
go get -u github.com/golang/protobuf/proto

i have also downloaded c++ protoc binary in c:\protoc\.

i created a proto file in c:\test\example dir with name person.proto.

when i run below commad. it is giving error:
C:\protoc>protoc -I=\test\example --go_out=\test\example \test\example\person.proto

that
--go_out: protoc-gen-go: The system cannot find the file specified.

but if i replace go_out with cpp_out it is working fine.

Please suggest if i missing something here.

Hi,

It seems protoc is having problem finding the proto file. I'm not sure why cpp_out works.

Can you try using relative path rather than absolute path?

C:\protoc>protoc -I=..\test\example --go_out=..\test\example ..\test\example\person.proto

Thanks,

Menghan

Hi Menghan,

It is still giving the same error for relative paths as well. Am i
missing any other installation?

It's working now. Issue was with the environment variables.I added
protoc and protoc-gen-go path in PAth variable and it started working.

You need to setup protoc plugin path at windows $PATH. After that you need to run commands to generate stubs. Pls refer this link:
