Xojo building in the trash?

[Arnaud_N]

Hi,

Has anyone ever seen Xojo attempting to build an app in the trash?
In one of my projects, I can debug-run the app fine. However, when trying to build, Xojo goes up to the compiling phase and then throws this message: “ Error creating Universal app: #1 - “NameOfMyApp.app” couldn’t be moved because you don’t have permission to access “Trash”.”, at which point I can see the trash icon being full and, sure enough, the app is there, middle-compiled.
I’ll continue looking at it, but wondered if anyone already saw that.

Trash

Either your project (the one you want to compile) is in the Trash or you set the Trash as the Compile folder in the Project properties.

NB: you are lucky you do not change the “Empty the Trash” settings to auto clear… (else, you loose the project(s), etc.).

Look at the 5ft item, “Remove items from the Trash after 30 days“

I should have stated that neither of them apply.
Thanks anyway.

The project file isn’t in the trash; I’d be mad to store it there, IMO.

Never mind, I deleted the entire “Builds” folder and Xojo no longer builds in the trash. Still a weird issue.
