Errors such as: Error when building CXX object modules/python2/CMakeFiles/opencv_python2.dir/__/src2/cv2.cpp.o about nano_build_opencv HOT 6 CLOSED

Thanks, @mdegans. I will give this a try.

I appreciate the heads up about running a swap file on my microSD card, as I just set that up today. I guess I will switch over to an external hard drive for swap.

That's a good solution, just make sure it's usb3 and fast. You can use the hdparm utility to benchmark drives on linux. For example sudo hdparm -t /dev/mmcblk0 will read benchmark your MicroSD on nano. If it's not installed, you can install it with sudo apt-get install hdparm. I have benchmarked external SSDs at around 225MB/s so that's the number you should be expecting from /dev/sda (probably the name of your first usb drive) if it's a USB-3 SSD.

I was able to get OpenCV version 4.0 to build/install using this script from NVIDIA.

That script works perfectly well, but please be aware that you will likely have similar issues if you try to build without enough free memory. It will probably work fine until it comes time to link everything together at the end, and then fail at some random thing, yielding no useful google results from the error message.

I'd be happy to help. It looks like it's failing at the building python2 module. One possible troubleshooting step is to try to build without python2 and see if that fixes it. here is a version with no Python2 support. Please let me know if it builds.

Also, please note that building OpenCV requires a lot of memory. If you encounter failures at random points, you might consider running headless (ssh in and then systemctl isolate multi-user.target). A swap file might also help, but I would recommend mounting it on an external drive if you do use one. Swapping from a MicroSD card severely hurts it's lifespan.

The link is not found , Please update

Please update link for no-python2/build, as I'm encountering this same issue.

Thanks!

Sorry for the necropost. I removed that becuase it wasn't the root of the problem. If you are having the same issue, please try building again with a swap file / partition.
