Hi.
We've recently migrated large app from PB 12.5 to PB 2021.
It consist of more then a hundred of pbls, placed in 7 folders.
From PB IDE, Build and Deploy works fine - makes needed pbds beside pbls and exe file.
Now we need to atomate build process. And it's a problem.
with "PBAutoBuild210.exe /f b_allinone.json" i get Error: Failed to find the library search path in the .pbt file [b_allinone.pbt] (The liblist statement does not include any .pbl file).
"pbc210 /d b_allin1.pbw" - shows the same error, then builds the project, but don't deploy (doesn't make pbd and exe) and exits with "success compile". i tried a full command from app painter - same result
Last i tried orcascript - it makes pbds and fails on exe with
Orca error in 'buildExecutable'. Result Code -12.
Creation of executable failed with a link error
Link error(s) encountered.

Will suit any working option.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Serj,

I locally built a case based on the PBT file you provided and successfully reproduced the issue you described.

This is because the name of the folder where the PBL resides contains the keyword of “applib”. I suggest you do this to work around the issue:
Change the folder name from “AppLib” to “ApplicationLib” then re-export the build json file and try again, which is do not put “applib” in the name of any folder or PBL.

Also, to better handle this bug, I suggest you submit a bug in the Appeon Support system (https://www.appeon.com/standardsupport/newbug).

Regards,
Ken

Is there needed in 

"Libraries": [

 something like 

"Library": "..\\AppLib\\admtls.pbl"

Did you try 

"Library": "admtls.pbl"

?

Hi Ales.

If i read you right you advised to remove directory from "Library" string in "Libraries" array from json file?

i got this file from PowerBuilder IDE with "ExportBuild file" actoin and assuming that it has a correct syntax.

The same pathes are in pbt file in LibList section. If i changed pathes there, project doesn't build even in IDE.

Hi,

as I know, the IDE does not use json for build.

I ment you try to edit json file to remove paths from there and pbt will be same (with path present there).

Hi Seth;

   Have you applied the MR to PB2021 to bring the PB IDE to build 1311? There were fixes to the AutoBuild utility in that MR.

Regards ... Chris
