Here's a pastbin log of what i could grab. It doesn't write a log file for some reason with the whole log.html file. Hopefully this is helpfull though.

It has been doing this for the past 5-6 days now, and haven't seen anything for compile fixes in the SVN for the win version, so i am assuming it's something on my end. Weird thing is it was working fine before, with the normal win compile fixes here and there as normal. I even deleted the whole directory and re-grabbed and tried compiling again. Thanks for any help.

Can't reproduce. Works for me with current svn.
Unfortunately I have no idea what this could be.

Can you find the xbmc.exe file inside the release folder? If yes only something with the build.bat doesn't work. Maybe it can't access xcopy. Try calling xcopy from the command line.

That's the same error I've been getting as well. It worked the first time I used it about a week ago but since then I get the same error.
I just assumed I was doing something wrong because it's my first time compiling/building my own.

From that log, it should've compiled the exe. There are no errors, only warnings. See if you have XBMC.exe in "d:\Xbmc\PC Version\project\Vs2003\Release (SDL)". If so, the batch file may just be looking in the wrong place.

the buildsetupbat works for me I just compiled at rev14420 probly been fix already

Note: If you use 2k3 it's probably dumping the executeable in the SVN root.

That way you (or more to the point I) can run it from SVN without mucking around

Well, further testing done. I do see the xbmc.exe file is getting copied over to the main SVN root directory where i build. Maybe this is a new change as in the past 6-7 months i have been building releases, it hasn't ever done that before.

I tried changing the directory from "XBMC\PC Version" to the main directory "d:\PC Version", and even changed and added a "_" to the name "PC_Version", in case, even though i know that problem was fixed a month or so ago, "Fixed spaces in directory name", but just in case i am trying anything. Build after build it's still giving me the error.

Here is a pastbin of the batch file (which of course is grabbed from the SVN itself.), but not sure why it is giving me an error(and other mentioned person having the same problem), but not a lot of others? I am running x64 Pro, which uses directories "\Program Files (x86)" instead of "\Program Files" which shouldn't matter since i haven't changed any configs or setups for a while now, yet all of the sudden have this problem now.
The only weird thing that has happened since this started happening, is when refreshing the SVN, it randomly would give a message "Disconnected by host server." in red, then stopped. Also speed was really slow also when it DID grab new files. So i just deleted the directory, made a new directory, and redid an SVN sync clean and from scratch. Then it started working just fine again, but building is now having problems. I did double check the config's of the xbmc_lib links, and those are still there and correct.
Anything else i can try next? I am using x64 pro, and also using VB2003, but DO use VB2008 here and there also. But seems the build file is setup to use the VB2003 method. Maybe that needs to be changed, since VB2008 can be grabbed for free from microsoft. I dunno.

And also i verified that xcopy is working fine in cmd line.

As I said in my post: The exe is NOT being placed in the Release (SDL) folder anymore.

This line in the bat:

set EXE= "project\VS2003\Release (SDL)\XBMC.exe"

Is where it's looking for it. It can probably just be:

set EXE= "XBMC.exe"

The build.bat hasn't changed for quite some time and yesterday I build XBMC with it and got the BUILD_WIN32 directory with all the stuff needed.

There's also a batch file for vs 2008 in project/Win32BuildSetup/buildsetup.bat.
It'll try to build the installer afterwards but even if it fails you have the build_win32 directory with all needed files.

Update:
Wrong folder

[djdafreund]

Aren't you meaning there's a Buildsetup.bat file inside the Win32BuildSetup directory? There is no file inside the VS2008Express directory. There's 5 files inside that directory (and .svn directory of course.)

https://xbmc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot...xport/XBMC is still the current SVN directory for the SDL builds right? According to the XBMC WIKI at least.

BTW- I just changed the tip mentioned from set EXE= "project\VS2003\Release (SDL)\XBMC.exe" to set EXE=XBMC.exe, and tried it again, but it still gives an error. Highly baffled here.

[WiSo]

Yes and yes.

[chadoe]

updated the vs2003 build.bat file in svn.

[djdafreund]

Big thanks for that fix.

Uh-oh, error now this time. "Cannot open source file: '\XBMC Stuff\Pc\xbmc\utils\md5.c': No such file or directory", and noticed it's really not in that directory. Why should this happen when it's getting that info directly from the SVN? I don't even have any control over that one. But also if i'm not the only one getting that message.

It's just fixed in SVN.

Remember: We're developing 4 platforms at once - it's GOING to break. If it's broken, try again in a couple of hours and it'll likely be remedied.

[djdafreund]

Hey, it's no problem at all, i'm just mentioning it to help be informative, since it's not easy to dev'p for 4 platforms. You guys are, as always, amazing with this stuff.
