Connecting With Server

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

I’m attempting to build for my device iPod Touch 3rd gen 32gb using a development provisioning profile. Whenever I attempt to build for the device I get the message “Connecting with server…” and never get any further. I’ve tested buiding both my app and two of the sample apps supplied with Corona which all resulted in failure. I’m using build 591 with OSX 10.6.8 and my internet speed is around the same as dial-up (64 kbps) on satellite, but I would think that it would connect after at least 30 minutes. Is the server down or could it be due to my internet speed?

Also when building there are no messages in terminal.

Thanks, Luke

UPDATE: Just received the following error for the TimeAnimation sample code

I sometimes have gotten that problem when I have included a “build.settings” file that has some errors in it. So if you have one of those, try removing it from the folder and see if it builds then.

Thanks, trying now, will update later.

UPDATE: Fixed, thanks so much! [import]uid: 75643 topic_id: 18614 reply_id: 71477[/import]

Excellent! Now you just have to figure out what is wrong with your build.settings file. Usually it is a missing comma somewhere. [import]uid: 94868 topic_id: 18614 reply_id: 71487[/import]

Hi,
When building a sample project on Mac for my device I get this error in the terminal which happens when the “Connecting with server…” hang happens. I tried removing the build.settings file and this did not fix it. I also tried re-authorising by clearing out ansca* preferences. Is this a bug? It looks like objective-c errors. I was just trying to build the Physics > Shape Tumbler project without any modifications.
