Jetson inference on TX2 failed; how to specify location of NvInfer.h?

Robotics & Edge Computing Jetson & Embedded Systems Jetson TX2

Hi all,

I have been following the object detection portion of this tutorial: GitHub - dusty-nv/jetson-inference: Hello AI World guide to deploying deep-learning inference networks and deep vision primitives with TensorRT and NVIDIA Jetson. and have successfully used both the detectnet-console and detectnet-camera scripts in the past.

However, I had to re-flash my Jetson TX2 a few weeks ago and am trying to redo the results. I’m able to run cmake without trouble, but then when I run make I get the following error:

[ 25%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/jetson-inference.dir/segNet.cpp.o

On my Jetson TX2, NvInfer.h and NvCaffeParser.h are both located in this directory:
/media/nvidia/SSD1TB/usr/include/aarch64-linux-gnu/

How can I point the make command to these files so that it will finish compiling successfully?

Hi pineapple_flora, since you have a custom mount path, add this code underneath CMakeLists.txt:58

include_directories(/media/nvidia/SSD1TB/usr/include/aarch64-linux-gnu)

That got further; thanks! After adding the code snippet to CMakeLists.txt, I tried make again and got the following error:

Both libnvcaffe_parser.so.3 and libnvinfer.so.3 are in /media/nvidia/SSD1TB/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu, so I tried also adding

include_directories(/media/nvidia/SSD1TB/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu)

to CMakeLists.txt, but it didn’t seem to help?

Hi,

Try add this:

<b>link</b>_directories(/media/nvidia/SSD1TB/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu)

Thanks.

That worked for me! The “make” command finished after implementing the suggestion above. Thank you both!

Can you give more details on the solution? I ran into the same problem.

Hi uersoy,

Please open a new topic for your issue. Thanks
