AI 8.4 : exception on building

[Alpicus]

Hi,

When building a media, an error is displayed. Please check the attached file.

After rebuilding the media, it's working.

TIA,

Phil

Hi Phil,

This may happen if the file cannot be written in the package because the output folder is opened in Windows Explorer. I also noticed that you are building the package in a network path. Try building it in a local folder and use a post-build event to copy it in the network path.

Regards,
Cosmin

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. That's it : the folder was opened with the Windows Explorer.

Thanks.

Hello,

Unfortunately this problems is caused by an open handle used by Windows Explorer. We encountered a lot of tools which have the same problem. Although we made some small improvements for this, we were unable to find a complete solution. Perhaps in a future version.

All the best,
Mihai
