iOS Question Still having problem with ' /Users/root/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData is not a folder'

[Robby]

Still trying to fix error whilst compiling with error message' /Users/root/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData is not a folder' after upgrading Catalina and Xcode

Instruction was to add ‘xcode_cache=/Users/%user%/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData’ to config.txt

Under BuildServer was example_config.txt which included that line. Renamed to config.txt.

Started the server but it did a wobbly and wouldn’t build. See error message below. Tried restart to no avail. Created new config.txt file. Build failed again.

Renamed config.txt to config1.txt. = Server worked. Tried a couple of times all ok. Noticed that a new example_config file .

Renamed config1.txt to config.txt. Server build failed as before.

Not sure where to go from here. Need to have config.txt to fix '/Users/root/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData is not a folder' problem but config.txt causes server build fail.

Renamed config.txt to config1.txt. = Server worked

This confirms a problem inside config.txt.
But I don't see config.txt and similar inside the distributive (B4iBuildServer_650.zip) and in my B4iBuildServer folder.
Simply remove config.txt.

 

[Erel]

Can you upload the config.txt file (as an attachment)?

 

[Robby]

The problem is fixed. It was caused by extended permissions on the files in Buildserver which was caused when re-installing a backup after upgrading to Catalina. As a result files wren locked. Erel sent me B4iBuildServer.zip which was installed in a virgin account. Edited config.txt and all worked first time. Thanks for your help.

I have the same error on compilation (B4i 6.80 | MacOS 11.1 | local builder).
So which is the final solution to solve this error ?

This from @Erel (#4)

(IOException) java.io.IOException: /Users/root/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData is not a folder.

I upgrade to B4i 6.5 B4iBuildServer 6.51 Local MAC 10.15 and get error when I Build B4i-bridge app B4i Version: 6.50 Parsing code. (0.75s) Building folders structure. (0.06s) Compiling code. (0.54s) Building designer app. (0.02s) Building Xcode project (0.53s) Sending data...

or in this post #4?

 

[Erel]

Please post the full server logs.

Have you installed Xcode 12 and ran it?

 

[luke2012]

Please post the full server logs.

Have you installed Xcode 12 and ran it?

1) Please post the full server logs.
See the file "build_server.txt"

2) Have you installed Xcode 12 and ran it?
Yes (see the screenshot)

3) B4i 6.80 compile log

I just upgraded to B4i 6.80 and wish I could use it.
If you need other info in order to help me please tell me.

I also tried to follow the tutorial to generate a new sign key but without success (see my iOS Question post) :-(

Error compiling project: DerivedData is not a folder

Hi all, compiling a little B4X project I got this error: To solve this error I'm following the @Erel suggestion (#4 of this post https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/ioexception-java-io-ioexception-users-root-library-developer-xcode-deriveddata-is-not-a-folder.119909/#post-749848). So I...

Open Finder - choose Go - Go to folder - ~/Library

Do you see the relevant path? Try to create it if not.

Opening that path I see these...

So no DerivedData folder found.
I try to create a empty DeriveredData folder I test it.

Thanks @Erel for this useful suggestion.
Now I can compile and run the App on the iOS emulator:

So in this case the workaround is to manually create the folder within Xcode path.
This because B4i can't create the folder (DerivedData) automatically if not found ?

Now I have to fix a little bug within the B4i project and than it should works.

The builder doesn't try to create it. It will be fixed in the next version.

I got it. Thank you Erel for your precious help and B4i update support about this.
