gazebo installation on Windows 11 (conda-forge) gazebo==11.14.0=*_10 unsuccessful

[aiswaryame94]

Here are the steps I followed to install and run gazebo 11.14 on windows 11.

conda create -n gazebo_env
conda activate gazebo_env
conda install conda-forge::gazebo
gazebo --verbose

I get the following errors:

I also have paused the antivirus protection (Kaspersky), disabled windows firewall, toggled off the real-time protection on windows security. I also set gzserver.exe and gzclient.exe to use hig-processing NVIDIA graphics card, in the NVIDIA control panel.

I am still facing the same error. Could you kindly help me solve the same?

Can you please report the output of:

• conda info
• conda list
• set

Thanks!

EDIT: for anyone looking for a quick solution, a known workaround is to install a version of gazebo compatible with boost 1.82.0, i.e.:

conda create -n gazebo gazebo libboost==1.82.0

But I've only faced this error intalling the latest version (11.14.0) and 11.13.0 runs fine!

[traversaro]

Thanks, I was able to reproduce the problem.

[traversaro]

The 0xc0000142 error means that some dll is not loaded, let's debug with https://github.com/lucasg/Dependencies .

[traversaro]

Not even gz works.

[traversaro]

Installing gazebo==11.14.0=*_9 works fine, so it could be something related to boost or similar:

(gazebo) C:\Users\straversaro>mamba install gazebo==11.14.0=*_9

The 0xc0000142 error means that some dll is not loaded, let's debug with https://github.com/lucasg/Dependencies .

I do not see anything clearly wrong with that. I wonder if this problem is somehow related to robotology/gazebo-yarp-plugins#678 .

[traversaro]

The problem is present with all builds of libboost 1.84.0, so probably the problem is not related to some ABI break between different builds of libboost 1.84.0 . The problem is not present in Linux/macOS.

Some updates: conda-forge/gazebo-feedstock#210 (comment) :

I tested this locally, and it has the exact same problem of boost 1.84 builds, even if we are using boost 1.82 . On the other hand, I built locally gazebo-classic against 1.84, and it is working fine. At this point, I suspect that the difference between working and not working builds is the visual studio version, that got updated at some point between 1.82 and 1.84 builds.

First problematic build: https://github.com/conda-forge/gazebo-feedstock/runs/23137603666, compiled with MSVC 19.38.33135.0
Last successful build: https://dev.azure.com/conda-forge/84710dde-1620-425b-80d0-4cf5baca359d/_apis/build/builds/896987/logs/55 MSVC 19.29.30154.0

Ok, the MSVC is exactly the same Edit, I was looking at the wrong job. Indeed the MSVC version is different, I wonder if it is something related to this comment conda-forge/conda-forge.github.io#2102 (comment) .

Note that this (i.e. the use of vs2022) does not explain by itself the problem, it is probably some sort of regression in the vs2022 version used in the CI. However, for sure this explains why a downstream vs2019 build failed, see robotology/gazebo-yarp-plugins#679 .

For future reference: this was wrong. The dll not loaded/missing symbols error is 0xc0000135, 0xc0000142 is something like "application not starting correctly" or something similar.

If indeed this has something to do with vs2022, you should now be able to rerender & rebuild the respective feedstocks, and hopefully the problem will then disappear. Sorry for the trouble!

No problem! Indeed, I will open an issue to track the problem with vs2022, it is possible that just updating to a more recent version of vs2022 the problem disappears. Or let's hope that everyone stopped using gazebo classic and moved to gz-sim by the time that conda-forge migrates to vs2022.

The problem should be fixed with the gazebo==11.14.0=orignameh160ba46_212 and gazebo==11.14.0=gzcompatnameh1a9e25f_12 builds, i.e. now:

conda create -n gazebo gazebo

should work out of the box. Thanks a lot @aiswaryame94 and @ShadowDawg for reporting the problem, it was a tricky one. We also added tests in conda-forge/gazebo-feedstock#211 to avoid these kind of regressions.
