Kindle Fire build doesn't work

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Everything works fine in the Simulator but when I build for kindle fire and install on kindle fire HD 8.9 get the following error in the logs:

03-11 18:46:58.330: V/Corona(31648): WARNING: asset file practiceMenuTitlebackground.png does not exist  
03-11 18:46:58.330: I/Corona(31648): Lua Runtime Error: lua\_pcall failed with status: 2, error message is: ?:0: attempt to index a nil value

The graphic file exist in the project but doesn’t seem to make it to the apk file.

Is there something obvious I am missing like too long of a file name or setting in the build menu?

I followed the following instructions for build

if you were testing this on a windows computer be aware that windows is not case sensitive, and the android, and IOS platforms are.

So if the file names in the code and the actual file name in the folder are different cases your going to have this issue…

Trust me - I have learned the HARD WAY :frowning: aaaaaaahhhhh

That is exactly what it is. :open_mouth: You get the mindreading award since I didn’t even give the platform I was developing on (Windows 7). Thanks for your help.
