@juancarlospaco this is easily done on your own system, not in a PKGBUILD, given that building packages runs as root:

sudo groupadd unrealengine-users
sudo usermod -aG unrealengine-users (your-username)
sudo chown -R root:unrealengine-users /opt/unreal-engine
sudo chmod -R 775 /opt/unreal-engine

Permission issues like this are already mentioned on the UE Arch wiki page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Unreal_Engine_4#Installing_from_the_AUR

This is a user system problem; I already did what I could without needing users to do the above by giving the 777 permissions. If it still gives you trouble, you'll have to use the example to solve it or change the install location to somewhere you have user permissions by default (as I cannot do this for you).

Will update to 5.0 when it is released.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:

  git switch -c <new-branch-name>

@urbenlegend I need more from the log than this to try to help. I turned off installing patches by default in case that caused your problems.

urbenlegend commented on 2021-05-05 02:23 (UTC)

I am getting this build error with 4.26.2-2 that I did not get when I successfully built 4.26.2-1:

ERROR: Unhandled exception: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.Security.SecurityException: No access to the given key ---> System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '/etc/mono/registry/LocalMachine' is denied. ---> System.IO.IOException: Permission denied

The directory /etc/mono/registry doesn't even exist.

@pyrow try ./GenerateProjectFiles.sh -makefile -CLion -ForceUseSystemCompiler

If your generating for a project try:

./GenerateProjectFiles.sh -project="/path/to/project/project.uproject" -ForceUseSystemCompiler -game -engine -makefile -CLion

That command will also give an xml file you can setup to use it from the engine.

Try compiling with make make ProjectName ARGS=-ForceUseSystemCompiler; make ProjectNameEditor ARGS=-ForceUseSystemCompiler from the command line to test too. If that doesn't compile then there's a bug in your code somewhere.

Remove -ForceUseSystemCompiler if you're using the provided compiler.

@AverytheFurry @zerophase that's what I did. chmod -R 770 /opt/unreal-engine.

However I am getting two errors around creating a C++ class and some errors being shifted to Tamil charset... https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=266035 https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1970928#p1970928

HI everyone, for those who are facing problem while using installing. There is missing " in line 168

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=unreal-engine#n168

zerophase commented on 2021-05-03 10:30 (UTC)

@AverytheFurry you Might need to change permissions. There might be a directory not getting set correctly. I think it's chmod -R 770 you want.

zerophase commented on 2021-05-03 01:58 (UTC) (edited on 2021-05-03 10:57 (UTC) by zerophase)

If you're upping the processor multiplier, and have more than 30 logical cores, (hyper threading, etc) you need to edit BuildConfiguration.xml MaxProccessorCount to be greater than or equal to LogicalCores * MaxProcessorCount. Should speed compilation up for most. Need to turn the patch on in the PKGBUILD.

A multiplier of 1.5 might make the computer unresponsive for other uses. Probably depends on processor.

If anyone has more than 30 logical cores let me know, and I can update the default. There's an upper limit in terms of memory and how many files your system can have open at once. At a certain point compilation probably takes longer.

shuriken commented on 2021-05-01 12:10 (UTC) (edited on 2021-05-01 12:32 (UTC) by shuriken)

@AverytheFurry this is because by default in this AUR, Generate project files has not been done for IDEs. you can cd into opt/unreal-engine and ./GenerateProjectFiles.sh -VSCode you can add more flags according to your IDE preference. To generate it for all supported IDEs its simply - ./GenerateProjectFiles.sh

The issue mentioned previously seems to only happen on c++ projects
