Server Bug

Hi,

I think there is an error with your server while building iOS Apps.

I startet today a new short project and wanted to build for iOS, but as was up to copy it through XCode to my iPhone I got an error that there is a file missing in the project and therefore the app is not copied to the device. The code files are all there and correctly spelled. Also the icon files are copied from another project. I don’t use any images in my code (checked all my code: nothing).
So suspicous as I was I copied all the images files from my other Corona project and built again. And it worked. So I deleted one file after another and built each time. And suddenly after deleting an images (which i certainly didn’t use in my second project) it didn’t work. The file is called “stick.png” maybe there are some issues with the name, but i also deleted once another junk of images (while this was contained) and it also started not to work.

I’m quite sure that the problem is not on my side. I now checked it for over an hour whats wrong and it makes no sense to me. The build server must be mixing up the two projects.

Please check it. [import]uid: 68079 topic_id: 19720 reply_id: 319720[/import]

What happens if you try to compile one of the Ansca Sample apps, and then transfer to your phone? [import]uid: 70847 topic_id: 19720 reply_id: 76316[/import]

What version of Corona are you currently using, have you successfully built previously and, as ingemar asks, what happens if you compile one of our sample apps and try to install it on your iOS device?

I’m using 2011.704 and the “HelloWorld” example doesn’t work either. It results in the same error.

The error message I get is:
[path/file name] is not a valid Archive (Could not locate file within archive)

I gladly send a corona developer the corrupted .ipa [import]uid: 68079 topic_id: 19720 reply_id: 76368[/import]

Is someone reviewing this error? [import]uid: 68079 topic_id: 19720 reply_id: 76693[/import]

Since you have the same problem with the sample apps, I’m starting to suspect that there might be a problem with your XCode installation.

What happens if you try to build a demo app with XCode (not Corona), and install it on your device?

BTW this time of year many people are on vacation. Support should start to pick up next week after NewYear…

They work as usual (I just built an older iPhone App). I really think that’s something with the generated package is wrong. As the previous Corona Application works normally.
Oh… right… holiday time. ^^ [import]uid: 68079 topic_id: 19720 reply_id: 76702[/import]

What version of Xcode are you currently using?

(And which older version of Corona was working for you?)

Thanks,

It’s Xcode 4.2 and I never built another app with corona for the iPhone before this one.

How can I inspect further details in the generated .app folder? Or is there a way to get the intermediate code which is generated by corona? So I could inspect in more detail what’s wrong. [import]uid: 68079 topic_id: 19720 reply_id: 76911[/import]
