Temporary log file (/TL) after upgrading FB6 to FB7

FinalBuilder Bugs
1

Hi,

We’ve recently upgraded our FinalBuilder 6 scripts to version 7 (7.0.0.2995). A checkout out version of the scripts are located on a network share, and the process is started using a batch file:

start “” “C:\Program Files\FinalBuilder 7\FinalBuilder7.exe” -r -tl -a -z "\path\to\Master.fbp7"

After the upgrade however, whenever two people try to run a build, an error shows up that the “Master.fbl7” is locked. Looking at the help, it seems the “-tl” switch should prevent a log file from being generated in the project file’s location, and it has worked before with FB6.

I have tested it with a new project as well, and the log file is always generated in the project folder. I have tried various combinations of switches and searched the forums to see if it is a known issue, to no avail. Is there something else we can try besides having local copies for everyone?

Thanks!

I can reproduce that here, will investigate. FWIW, we recommend you use the console version (fbcmd.exe) in these situations, it will run the project faster with less memory overhead.

Hi Vincent,

Thanks for the fast response, the fix works perfectly!

Our process is interactive anyways, but I’ll look into fbcmd, thanks for the advice!
