The build.xml is in appinventor-sources/appinventor you're executing it in appinventor-sources

TekWizer · June 3, 2021, 4:59am

so how to change the path ?

TekWizer · June 3, 2021, 5:00am

`

$ cd appinventor-sources/appinventor

` did not work

Souvik_Bera · June 3, 2021, 5:02am

Run this cd appinventor && ant

TekWizer · June 3, 2021, 5:03am

did not work

Souvik_Bera · June 3, 2021, 5:09am

The you might not have the repository cloned properly

TekWizer · June 3, 2021, 5:10am

so should i delete and clone it agin ??

Souvik_Bera · June 3, 2021, 5:11am

Yes try recloning

TekWizer · June 3, 2021, 5:18am

altho i ahve deleted appinventor-sources and removed it from recycle bin i have even closed git bash and opened it again

Know_About_IT · June 3, 2021, 5:29am

Ufff, you are doing wrong, go to the folder where you cloned appinventor, then go to appinventor named folder, then right click and select git bash here, then it will work because the build.xml is located there

TekWizer · June 3, 2021, 7:17am

@Know_About_IT i deleted the source (advised by @Souvik_Bera) but i am not able to clone again

You need to delete the appinventor sources folder, huh ! You need to do a lot of homework (Read the docs)

My build was succesful now i am trying run main server ut getting this error.
following the readme.md in appinventor-sources.

do i need to install python ?
cuz i already have it (version 3.7)

Know_About_IT · June 3, 2021, 11:12am

Have you downloaded Google cloud sdk ? If not, do so and if yes, try same command in cmd or powershell

TekWizer · June 3, 2021, 11:14am

yes i have downloaded it

TekWizer · June 3, 2021, 11:16am

btw when i execute the first line about gcloud sdk a blank popup cmd opens and closes after a few secs... thought it might be useful

Know_About_IT · June 3, 2021, 11:16am

You are doing a lot of mistakes in typing command, firstly, for you convenience as beginner, add the sdk in paths, then ur work will be easier, if u want me to help you better, give me you anydesk code in dm and I will help you do,
