Bug? B4i does not work at all with hosted Xcode compiling, directory name invalid

[Simon Smith]

1. Registered user of B4A, registered Android/iPhone Developer.
2. Standard install with extra for remote compiler of B4i
3. Set the correct IP address to my external IP, and tried internal
4. For simplicity installed it to c:\b4i instead of default which also didn't work.

5. Build Configurations, standard.

6. Build server setting set correctly with correct password

7. Paths as follows, project saved in c:\temp\b4iex.b4i

8. Press Run in Debug mode. Constantly get the directory name is invalid.

Cannot work out what it could be. Please assist!

The error happens locally (I checked the online servers based on your user id).

Where is the project saved?

 

[Simon Smith]

Hi, as mentioned, it is simply c:\temp - full rights.
It used to be on a portable hard drive as a different project. I've tried all.

Do you see a file named rc.dat under the Objects folder?

 

[Simon Smith]

hi no, there is no rc.dat under the objects folder.

 

[Erel]

Something is preventing the IDE from writing under the Objects folder. Try to create a new project and save it under My Documents.

Same exact error in c:\users\simon\documents with standard code untouched, below is the screen.

'Code module

Might be related to this error: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/825791

Check whether the TEMP and TMP environment variables point to a valid folder.

 

[Simon Smith]

No that makes no difference

Then changed to:

cant we turn logging on or something to see exact reason

 

[Erel]

Yes, please enable logs: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/intermittent-error-message.9047/#post-50478 (it is the same as in B4A).

I'm not sure whether there will be more information in this case.

Hi, again no luck. Surely this was tested before release?

[Simon Smith]

installed in c:\b4i, with full network, everyone, administrator, users access to c:\temp where the sample project lies. Why?

 

[Erel]

Surely this was tested before release?

Yes, it was tested.

My guess is that the keys folder is not accessible or not configured correctly.

Try to move it to c:\b4i\keys
