Re: Missing Info.plist agony



Hi,
Where do you see this "Cannot open widget" message? In Dashcode or when deploying to Dashboard?


If you save, close, and try to open the project again, does it open it? If Info.plist is really missing it should give you an error. You can also look inside the .dcproj document bundle (right click, Show Contents) and see if Info.plist is there.

If you continue to see this issue, please file a bug with detailed steps to reproduce and attach the project you're having problems with, so we can take a look at what's going on. http://bugreport.apple.com

hello all,

i'm having a real pain in the patoot trying to use dashcode under 10.5.6 leopard.

i launch dashcode to create a new countdown widget in Dashcode. i set all the widget attributes and mark that and the customize countdown options as done. i save. i then try and just run it, as is. each and every time i get the same error: "Cannot open widget:Missing Info.plist file." i check the "Files" view and yes, an Info.plist file *is* in there. also, it's properly named "Info.plist," capital "I," not lowercase "i" on "Info." (yes, i've seen those errors mentioned in these forums).

in addition, if i save everything, shut down dashcode, and re-open it, i then get a Canvas view screen with nothing but the blank, grey checkered canvas where the widget formerly was. and i haven't altered any files or changed a line of code.

i'm on a black macbook with an intel core2duo 2.16 Ghz process, 2 GB ram and mac os x 10.5.6 leopard with all the latest updates to the system applied, security updates and all else.

to make sure it wasn't my development install, i downloaded and installed the latest Xcode 3.1.2 package and iPhone SDK 2.2.1 package and installed them both. i still have the same problem after installing those, restarting, and doing the exact same steps above in Dashcode v. 2.0.1 (159). before this, this never happened to me in dashcode before.

any help as to what is happening here would be most appreciated. thank you.
