Hi

I was hoping I could get help with those error messages

Configuration to package for an iOS device

Here is the adt command

c:\program files (x86)\jetbrains\intellij idea 12.0\jre\jre\bin\java.exe -Dapplication.home=D:\flex_sdk_4.6 -Xmx384m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Djava.awt.headless=true -Duser.language=en -Duser.region=en -Xmx512m -jar D:\flex_sdk_4.6\lib\adt.jar -package -target ipa-test-interpreter -storetype PKCS12 -keystore D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\ios_profiles\certificate.p12 -storepass xxxxx -provisioning-profile D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\ios_profiles\development.mobileprovision D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\bin-debug\iOS_device.ipa D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\bin-debug\HeadrApplication-app.xml -extdir D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\ane -C D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\bin-debug iOS_device.swf -C D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\src data -C D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\src icons -C D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\src Default-568h@2x.png -C D:\Headr\trunk\headr-app\headr-mobile\app\src Default.png

Thanks for reporting the issue. Could you please try updating the namespace of your application descriptor to 3.6 and let us know how it goes.

There is a known issue with 3.6 beta, it shows up the similar error when packaged with less than 3.6 namespace.

Thanks

Hi Pahup

Thanks for your prompt reply

I believe my application.xml was correct last night when I got this error

ie looked something like that at the top

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>

<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/3.6">

Having said that, an unexpected, different error this morning when I try to build

[AIR Debug Launcher]: invalid application descriptor: Unknown namespace: http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/3.6

[AIR Debug Launcher]: Process finished with exit code 7

Melissa.

Melissa,

My reply above was for your 2nd error (java.lang.NullPointerException).

Regarding your 1st error - try changing the order of swf and extdir, swf always follows the xml in adt command.

Regarding your 3rd error - Are you sure, you're using 3.6 ADL (Adobe debug launcher), it looks like ADL isn't able to recognize the 3.6 ns.  To check the ADL version, right click on adl.exe being used, click on "Details" tab, you'll see a version number there, it should be 3.6.
