I'm trying to compile Bitcoin from source code in Windows 7.
When I run ./configure, I get the following error:

checking for Berkeley DB C++ headers... no
configure: error: libdb_cxx headers missing

I have followed all the steps mentioned in the source code folder doc/build_msw, but still get the same error.

Additionally, I have tried following these instructions for building Bitcoin on Windows:

I have installed berkeleydb 4.8.30.msi.

What else can I try to resolve this issue?

  • Have you tried installing berkleydb from source, as the forum page you linked tells you to do as step 2.2? – Nick ODell Mar 25 '15 at 11:04
  • yes, I have done with source as well as with exe db-4.8.30.msi, still it will give the same error again and again – Deepak Chauhan Mar 25 '15 at 11:10
  • There doesn't seem to be a file in [doc/](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tree/master/doc) named `build_msw`. Are you building the latest version of Bitcoin? – Nick ODell Mar 25 '15 at 11:21
  • I am usings bitcoin 0.9 version. and It will contain build-msw.md file. If I am use 0.10 version which is a latest code, then how I can configure all dependencies for windows. – Deepak Chauhan Mar 25 '15 at 11:27
  • When you run the configure script and compile berkleydb, does it produces any output or error messages? – Nick ODell Mar 25 '15 at 13:23
  • when I compile berkeley DB with its source code, It will compile perfectly. But when I run ./configure command from bitcoin code it will give me error that "checking for Berkeley DB C++ headers... no configure: error: libdb_cxx headers missing" – Deepak Chauhan Mar 25 '15 at 13:49
