Hi ,

I resolved the above error. Even after following build instruction, i got this error so,i started investigating on gclient tool. and i found “it is an issue with AJAX object”.

I am having WindowsXP with SP3 environment. In this configuration it is trying to create an ajax object with “MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP” (this is not there in my browser/system). So, I replaced this with “Microsoft.XMLHTTP” object.

I did a modification in the file “depot_tools\bootstrap\win\get_file.js”.

Instead of
“xml_http = new ActiveXObject(“MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP”);”
changed to
“xml_http = new ActiveXObject(“Microsoft.XMLHTTP”);”

Now it is working fine for me.
