BuildOS crashes (Fixed!)

[2K3GTP]

I have tried to run DCD's latest kitchen on multiple computers and every time I run BuildNB, it crashes when it tries to start BuildOS.

I have tried it on WinXp Sp2, WinXp Sp3, a bare install of Winxp SP2. I have tried it on all versions of Dot Net....

Still no love for me!!! :-(

WTF am I doing wrong???

EDIT:

Ok the issue was a path problem, apparently there was an issue where if I tried to run it from My Documents folder or the Desktop folder that the path was too long.
I moved the kitchen folder to the root of C:\ and it ran perfectly.
Hope this helps others that have the same issue!:)

Thanks everyone for your help in figuring out the issue.

Have you installed Visual C++ 2008 Runtime?
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9b2da534-3e03-4391-8a4d-074b9f2bc1bf&displaylang=en

It is required along with .net version greater than 2.0

Yes, I have installed it even though it is no longer required for DCD's latest kitchens, but BuildOS still crashes...

Sorry, that's all I've got. Hopefully someone else can chime in.

Is it crashing immediately.....have you run it before?

[2K3GTP]

It worked when I cooked a DCD ROM a few months ago, now with the new kitchen it starts to move the modules then BuildNB calls BuildOS and it crashes immediately. I can click on BuildOS.exe and get the same result.

You're extracting the folder from the rar file and not just running BuildNB.bat from the archive correct?

[2K3GTP]

Yes, that is correct. I am also an admin on these PC's and I am running it of a network drive but if I copy it locally it also fails so that is not an issue.

This is making me nuts.:confused:

Have you downloaded it again? Sounds like a corrupted download......

This is what the debugger says:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException' occurred in mscorlib.dll

Additional information: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop\dcd_titan_kitchen_3.2.6\dcd_ titan_kitchen_3.2.6\TOOLS\SYS

Did you re-download the kitchen again??

try to extract the archive to a folder on the root of C:, like "DCD326" and run it from there. there may be a limit to the length the path to a file can be. good luck...
