Error generating CAB files(s). Error code: 3 1

[hagartyman]

Please help. I have spent about 30 hours on this so far to no avail.
The exact error I am receiving is:

Error generating CAB files(s). Error code: 3
Unable to add file to CAB. Check to maker sure files exist and are not in use.

I have closed the Project Manager. I have also closed everything else using CLOSE ALL.
I have no long file names nor embeddes spaces.
I have no file names that are redundant in separate directories.
I am using Service Pack 5.
The build function works fine with no errors to build the appname.exe. The problem is with creating the setup package.

Many thanks for any help.

Stupid questions. You have tried doing a cold reboot, and tried again. And, have you tried delete all the old CAB files before the build.

HI

1. You have to create a separate directoiry for creating the setup. Have you copied all the required distributable files only of your project in the specified directory.

2. DELETE any foxuser.* file in your Directory where you have copied your distribution files for the purpose of building your SETUP.EXE

Ramani,

Thank you for your help. The deletion of the foxuser.* did the job. Again many thanks!
