Hello shivanth, I am also a newbie to the linux kernel. I think the PWD (path) contains a folder name having spaces inside like "shivnath s p". Try to use like"shivnath_s_p" ,a complete path having no spaces in between. I might be wrong, but i was having the same problem and i resolved like wise. Please correct me if i am wrong.
