fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file - visual-c++

I get this error when compile in VS C++ 2010.
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'cvblobslib.lib'
This project is stored on my company server. And I don't have full control.
Is that the problem?

Probably. The linker cannot access the remote lib file. Is there any way you can copy it locally?
If you cannot access the file through the OS, then the linker won't be able to either.

I just solve the problem in this way:
・ Remove the cpp file which contain #include "[server-path]\cvBlobslib.lib"
・ Add it again to the project.

Where can find x86.obj?

When I debug C++ file of open source, the error message show that:
error 1 error LNK1104: cannot open file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June2010)\Lib\x86.obj'
The directory of Microsoft Directx sure have no file called 'x86.obj'.
So, what is the x86.obj? Where can I get it?
The platform I use is Visual Studio 2010.
I think the obj file maybe is a combine of .lib file... because in the path, I only see the lib file under the directory of /x86, so I guess:
The C++ use x86.obj, but it just means that it use lib file under /x86 directory.
So, is there any way to let many .lib file turn to one .obj file?
Any advising appreciate!
I have found the solution!
I try to search the text "pragma" all the file, and found what lib the C++ use, and I add it to the linker with whole path like: C:/Program Files/Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)/Lib/x86/dxguid.lib
So, there is no x86.obj file! But if someone face the likely problem, remember to search (crl+F)"pragma", and check what lib you use and add to linker with whole path. Sometimes, the linker can not understand whether the "path" is directory or a lib file, so it occur errors.
Thanks for everyone!

got error Unable to find source file to my Windows-CE project

i try to build cab from my windows-CE project
and i got this error:
Error 5 Unable to find source file 'D:\MySetup_Setup\System.Data.SqlServerCe.DLL' for assembly 'System.Data.SqlServerCe.DLL', located in '%CE1%\MySetup' D:\MySetup_Setup.vddproj
all the dll are in place and the project works excellent
what can be the problem ?
thanks in advance
We'd have to see the source INF file that CABWIZ is using generate the CAB. My guess is that system.data.sqlserverce.dll is not in the d:\mysetup_setup folder on the development machine.

Error in DevIL. cannot open file 'il_wrap.lib'

I am using DevIL in my vc++ application. When build the application I get an error fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'il_wrap.lib'. There is no such file (il_wrap.lib). I am using DevIL-SDK-x86-1.7.8. From where did I get the file il_wrap.lib.
Search in the folder where you installed/downloaded/copied the DevIL library. Check that you use correct 32-bit/64-bit, static/dynamic linkable .LIB file.

fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'ATL9ProPS.def'

I have a VC++ project. When i compile the project in VS2008 i get the following linker error:
**Error 1 fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'ATL9ProPS.def' **
I have been compiling this same code since a year (with minor changes here and there) now but never saw this error. Also, my project does not refer to any file by name 'ATL9ProPS.def. (I guess this file is part of a project that is save to computer during Visual studio installation)
When i searched for this .def file in my machine i found it in the following location
C:\Documents and Settings\Abi\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\ATL9Pro.
But how on earth is this file bothering my project. I have no clue how this is linked to my project. Please help me resolve this.
For details
Project -> Properties -> Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input
-> Module Definition File -> Replace this with the right def file.
Try my moving that file to a different location or by renaming the file. Also see if there is any path in the Linker -> Additional include directories refers to My Documents/.../Projects folder.
Anand,
Thanks for the response. Not exactly Linker -> Additional include directories but The Linker->ModuleDefenitionFile option was referring to the file name ''ATL9ProPS.def'. I just replaced this with the right def file and it worked. Thanks

fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'boost/regex.hpp': No such file or directory

I am getting the following error when i build my code using regex.hpp I am using VS2010 VC++
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'boost/regex.hpp': No such file or directory
boost\boost_regex-vc71-mt-1_33_1.lib file is here.. is this correct?
It sounds like your include settings do not have the path to the boost installation parent directory.
Look at these instructions: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/more/getting_started/windows.html#build-from-the-visual-studio-ide
and note especially the include directory setup.
You need to make sure that you have included the path to the Boost header files in Visual C++.
Follow the instructions here.
This issue arises because Visual C++ does not include the path to the Boost header files. By including the directory, Visual C++ will search that directory for the problem and hopefully your problem should be solved.
Maybe the error message is true? The file is not there?
If you are in Ubuntu, install the boost library with synaptic, including the regex package. It is not enough with downloading from the boost website and building the regex library in the computer (instructions in http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/regex/doc/html/boost_regex/install.html), additionally you have to download it with synaptic. I guess this second redundant step is neccessary because synaptic may update some system variables (the $PATH???) and install some other dependencies that a direct download from www.boost.org does not do.
