iOS Question [SOLVED] Cant built B4i-bridge.

[techknight]

it has been a long while since I have messed around with B4i, so I had to update all my certs again.

I am rebuilding the B4i-bridge app, but this keeps happening:

B4i Version: 5.30
Parsing code. (0.00s)
Building folders structure. (0.01s)
Compiling code. (0.00s)
Building designer app. (0.00s)
Building Xcode project (0.09s)
Sending data to remote compiler. Error
Illegal characters in path.

What?

Where is the project saved?

 

[techknight]

I am not building a project. Trying to build the B4I_Bridge to get it over to my Tablet.

The open project is: Z:\Misc\B4I Examples\B4XDrawer

 

[Erel]

B4i-Bridge is actually built based on the currently open project (it is needed).

Try to create a new project in a path without spaces.

 

[techknight]

I have never had issues in the past with spaces? I still have my IOS projects folders with apps I built in the past without error.

I wont be able to build any projects then because it breaks my entire file system and directory structure that I have built up for years.

 

[Erel]

Do it as a test. I'm not sure that this is the cause of this issue.

 

[techknight]

I moved the example project out on the Root of my C drive. Now its just C:\B4XDrawer

Same thing,

 

[Erel]

In the root directly?

 

[techknight]

None of the keys files in my Keys folder have spaces or other weird characters, Just checked to make sure.

 

[techknight]

I do have both Dev and Dist certs in my keys folder.

At the Project Attributes, I have this:

    #IF DEBUG
        #ProvisionFile: "MD_Development.mobileprovision"
        #CertificateFile: "ios_development.cer"
    #Else
        #ProvisionFile: "MD_ADHOC_Distribution.mobileprovision"
        #CertificateFile: "ios_distribution.cer"   
    #END IF

Would that affect anything?

 

[techknight]

In the root directly?

C:\B4XDrawer. Tried my data drive as well, Z:\B4XDrawer. its all doing the same thing.

 

[techknight]

Thoughts? I am stuck here. Nothing compiles. everything throws this same error.

I am using a local mac builder BTW. It is running on the Mac, connected. Also it is B4i 5.30 from Sept.

 

[techknight]

I might be getting closer. Trying to run b4i builder on the mac in terminal, it keeps saying failed to find xcode version.

Its running 10.1.

 

[techknight]

Nope, False alarm.

It was an issue, but I had to go into xcode and fix the command line tools path. Once I did that, the builder ran. Still giving me illegal characters in path error. GRRRRRR

 

[techknight]

Its something going on with the keys certs. Something is wrong.

The problem seems it does NOT like having both a dev, and a dist key and provision inthe same folder. That sucks really. Need to fix it so I dont have to keep swapping keys in and out, that gets old, although I could have sworn you fixed this in a previous update?

I moved the development keys into another folder, and left the adhoc distribution keys in place. This fixed the illegal characters error. But its now generating a new one:

Out: Build settings from command line:
    ARCHS = armv7 arm64
    CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY = iPhone Distribution: john doe(XXXXX) <-- removed cert identity.
    CONFIGURATION_BUILD_DIR = /Applications/B4iBuildServer/UploadedProjects/<user id>/Payload
    OTHER_CODE_SIGN_FLAGS = --keychain <user id>
    PRODUCT_NAME = B4i-Bridge
    PROVISIONING_PROFILE = 0dc3ce1b-712a-4b84-a4f3-eb02f952dc5f

[techknight]

Narrowed down the illegal characters issue.

the provisionfile, and certificatefile does NOT like the quotes in there. Whoops. Man, that broke things in a cryptic way! So this thread is solved, NEed to start a new one on the new issue.
