Description of bug

I'm getting the following confusing error:

error: failed to run custom build command for `pallet-revive-fixtures v0.1.0 (/web/subspace/polkadot-sdk/substrate/frame/revive/fixtures)`
note: To improve backtraces for build dependencies, set the CARGO_PROFILE_DEV_BUILD_OVERRIDE_DEBUG=true environment variable to enable debug information generation.

The lock file exists for me, but at /home/nazar-pc/.rustup/toolchains/rve-nightly/lib/rustlib/src/rust/Cargo.lock instead. Not sure why it is searching for lock file at the wrong location.

I have rve-nightly 1.1.0 installed.

Have the same problem

[ggwpez]

Is that enabling all features by any chance? Enabling the RISCV feature will cause it to fail compiling, since you probably dont have that toolchain.

[nazar-pc]

I do have the toolchain though, see rve-nightly in the original message, is that not it?

[pgherveou]

which runtime are you trying to build, this should only build if you specify riscv?
Is that just intellij or building from the command line fails for you as well?

This should merge soon, does it fix your error #6266

[nazar-pc]

Just opening project in IDE, it tries to build and analyze everything and fails. Have not tried the mentioned PR and working on something else at the moment.

[xermicus]

#6266 will fix this.

What exactly are you trying to do? The custom toolchain is only required for developing the revive pallet. A correct configuration shouldn't pass the riscv feature around.

[nazar-pc]

As said above, I try to open a project in IDE. During this IDE will build and expand macros in the whole codebase to build whatever information it needs about the project to enable various IDE features like refactoring, etc.

So revive is nothing special, it'll be built just like everything else.

[xermicus]

Ah okay, my web UI didn't reload above comments 😅

Yeah this used to work but broke for some reason. I can repro locally, but #6266 will fix it.

[athei]

Did intellij worked for you properly before? In my experience it never worked really well on that repo. Not saying we should not resolve this issue. But probably something else will pop up after fixing it.

[nazar-pc]

It worked in the past and other than this still works.

At the same time there are some annoying things about how this repo is maintained, so I have to use environment variables to set one toolchain version for checking the code and another for formatting purposes. And #5317 that would fix at least one half of that is yet to be merged.
