Hello

Suddenly my app started to give this error :

ERROR: resource directory 'C:\Users\tufan\Dropbox\Altin Android\Objects\bin\extra\res4\res' does not exist

Altough i did not do anything with folders. Any solution ?

this behaviour I know from dropbox. If you work on different computers with the sync programm from dropbox, the read only protection will get lost, and when you start compiling the app, the res folders will be deleted...best to move it from dropbox to an other place or check the readonly status before compiling....

yes i am using dropbox. but i moved the folder outside now and tried again and getting the same error. Which folder's readonly status must be checked ?

normally the Objects/res folders, but in your case it is the bin folder....sorry I don't know, I think, that is something for the Experts here....;-)

After long efforts i found the problem. It was because of the folder name containing the b4a file. My main folder was named Altın which contains a turkish charachter. When i changed to i it is fixed.
