I changed the application objects name to something else and when I try to create a project/executable & pbd's I get the following error:

Create of executable file failed

What I did was open my original application object. Then I did a save as into the same application objects pbl with a different name for the application object. I then created a new project with the following options:

Full rebuild
Executable Format: Native
Check off 'PBD' for all the libraries in the application

I proceeded with deleting the old project and old app. object name. I then ran the new project and I get the above error.

I'm using PB 6.5.

I figure that the changing of the application name is what is causing this error. If I run the application in PB everything works fine. What is causing this error and how can I fix this.

Thanks

Answer to your question: No

However, I was having another problem with a new application icon and found out that the icon I was using was not created properly. I guess when I was trying to compile, PB could not create an exe because of this. So, I created a new icon from .

Now the compile works.

Thanks,
