build issues

[huihuishen]

when I build the code using the code "cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -G Ninja -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER:STRING=clang-12 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:STRING=clang++-12 -DMJPC_BUILD_GRPC_SERVICE:BOOL=ON"

It failed with the error :

CMake Error at mujoco-subbuild/mujoco-populate-prefix/tmp/mujoco-populate-gitclone.cmake:31 (message):

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.22/Modules/FetchContent.cmake:1087 (message):

How can i solve it? (btw. the system is ubuntu 22.04)

Please see build.yml for the configurations that are tested for MJPC. Currently, Ubuntu 20.04 is tested.

If the build fails, try deleting the mujoco_mpc/build directory and rebuilding.

Based on the error provided, it looks like findorfetch failed to clone the MuJoCo repository. During the build process a number of packages will be cloned (see CMakeLists.txt) so it is important to have a reliable internet connection.
