Root Cause

The .proto file imports a dependency that is not in the protoc include path, causing compilation to fail.

generic

中文

.proto 文件导入的依赖不在 protoc 的包含路径中，导致编译失败。

Workarounds

  1. 90% success Add the protobuf include path to protoc 
    protoc -I=. -I=/usr/include your.proto
  2. 85% success Use a dependency manager like Buf 
    buf generate

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Copy the timestamp.proto file into the same directory 50% fail

    It may conflict with the system-wide protobuf installation and cause version mismatches.

  2. Remove the import and use a custom timestamp field 60% fail

    This changes the API and may break compatibility.
