Error: This Application has been corrupted

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Hi there,

I’ve been busily trying my hand at Corona and so far, everything had been peachy up until tonight.

My game has suddenly stopped working on my Galaxy Tab 10.1, with the above message that the application has become corrupted.

Now having scoured the internet for some sort of possible reason why, the only thing I thought it could have been was some random capital letter somewhere in one of the image calls.
So I have been through the entire code about 10 times making everything lower case to make sure, but to no avail.
Nothing I do seems to make this work.

So if anyone out there can help a poor newb like me, please do - I’ve tried looking at a log of the tablet, but I’m afraid it’s like trying to read Greek for me, lol!

I can see there’s a force closure, but can’t see why.

Also - if anyone can talk me through how to get this ADB thing set up, I’d be extremely happy. I tried it before, but it just got way too confusing! [import]uid: 131942 topic_id: 25644 reply_id: 325644[/import]

I thought this message appeared if you tried to save or change a file that made up part of the app, or in the resource folder?
Afterwards, any check of the app size or checksum will fail because the bundled files are no longer the same.

Are you writing data into resources? [import]uid: 108660 topic_id: 25644 reply_id: 103661[/import]

I’m not sure what the original cause or causes were but I seem to have finally been able to fix the problem.

From what I tried, I think the cause wmust have been a capital letter in one of the files, but I dont know for sure. It did at least prompt me to go through all of the code and tidy it up properly, streamlining it where I realised I was creating variables where I didnt really need to.

The upside is that its now working and I believe I’ve learned a lot from that.

Glad you got it sorted, make sure you install adb, it has many uses including adb logacat for displaying runtime information and errors [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 25644 reply_id: 103737[/import]

Is that an app or a program for my pc? I found something called wirelass adb which was an app but it said i needed a rooted phone. But Im using a tablet, so didnt know if there was a way around that or not. [import]uid: 131942 topic_id: 25644 reply_id: 103757[/import]
