I have a workspace with 10 targets, 9 of which deploy without a problem.   When I try to deploy the last one however, it doesn't work; It does a full or incremental build, but then just doesn't create any of the PBDs or EXEs it is supposed to.   However, if I copy the text from the bottom of the project screen and use it in a dos batch tile to run PBC170, then it works fine.

I did a full build on two targets (payroll and person) and then tried to deploy both from the system tree (deploy projects both set to incremental build, pcode, 32 bit)

Working output from good deploy

 ---------- Deploy: Deploy of target payroll   (10:44:27)

Not Working output from problem deploy

 ---------- Deploy: Deploy of target person   (10:45:38)

Does PB create any log files detailing what it's doing ?

Hi Adrian;

  Make sure that where your application's are located that there are no folders and/or files that are write protected.

FWIW: I would also make sure that you always start the PB IDE in ADMIN mode.

HTH

I have tried running as admin with no luck.  I've also tried deleting the area where the exe is created and have ensured all PBDs are deleted.



I thought about permissions but it works fine from a dos batch file as a standard user.

I mean no disrespect, but have you checked that the all of the PBD checkboxes are checked on the "Libraries" tabpage of the Project object?

Sometimes it's a simple problem.

I know this particular issue because it bit me just the other day!  :) 

 

Good Luck,

Olan
