iOS Question Please Help me install Local MAC

NGUYEN TUAN ANH · Feb 3, 2026

I bought Standard + Hosted Mac Builder
Installed B4i V10.0
But I don't understand and can't follow Erel's instructions on setting up Local MAC as follows:
2. Install Xcode 26 from the app store or:
https://developer.apple.com/download/all/?q=xcode+26
(I opened it and saw many Xcode 26 versions, but I didn't know which one to download.)
3. You need to run Xcode at least once. Approve installation of additional components when asked.
4. Download and unzip the B4i-Builder. (How and Where ???)
5. Open a terminal and navigate to B4i-Builder folder.
6. Start it with:
<path to java>/jdk-19.0.1.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java-jar B4iBuildServer.jar
7. Install Apple Configurator from the app store.
8. Run Apple Configurator and select "Install Automation Tools" in the top left menu.

Which step are you stucked now?

2. Why not install from the Apple App store? The A icon.

4. Find the email you received for your B4i license.

b4i_xuiviewsutils.h:1:9: error: 'iActivityBar.h' file not found (in target 'B4iProject' from project 'B4iProject')

You managed to install local builder, don't you?

If this question is not related to the first post, it is better to start a new question.

I finished Installed B4i V10.0
i finished downloaded B4iBuildServer.zip to my computer
But I think this error is because I haven't installed it yet Local MAC
I don't know:
6. Start it with:
<path to java>/jdk-19.0.1.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java-jar B4iBuildServer.jar

NGUYEN TUAN ANH · Feb 3, 2026

I have carefully read the instructions, and I find this V10.0 version very confusing and lacking clear guidance.

Sorry @Erel but this command does look a bit confusing.

@NGUYEN TUAN ANH If you have downloaded the B4iBuildServer.zip, unzip it to B4iBuildServer.
Using Terminal, type the following commands.

Bash:

cd <path to java>/jdk-19.0.1.jdk/Contents/Home/bin
java -jar B4iBuildServer.jar

* Replace <path to java> with your own path.

Note there is a space between java and -jar.

You are confused.
Read carefully the instruction on https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/local-mac-builder-installation.46402/

Are you running the command on Mac or Windows?

NGUYEN TUAN ANH · Feb 3, 2026

2. Install Xcode 26 from the app store or:
https://developer.apple.com/download/all/?q=xcode+26

You must run the command on MacOS's Terminal, not on Windows PowerShell or Command Line.

NGUYEN TUAN ANH · Feb 3, 2026

So, if I'm running Erels' virtual MAC server service, I don't need to perform these steps, right?

Yes!
Local Builder mean you need to own a Mac computer. If you don't have one then you can use the online builder.

I was offered a license renewal (Standard + Hosted Mac Builder) at a discounted price of only $59, but due to a mistake, I also purchased Hosted Mac Builder for $26. Therefore, I would like to request a refund of the $26 Hosted Mac Builder I purchased so that I can buy Standard + Hosted Mac Builder at the discounted price of $59. Is this possible?

If you don't have a Mac, you need to get the package with Hosted Builder or add $26.
