Hello,
I have a project in FinalBuilder 7.0.0.1060, this project compiles a number of projects and among them written in a Delhpi 2007, with building packages.
Is compiling all the packages. bpl normally, but at the end of the compilation, at the time it will compile the file. dpr project in Delphi is the error:
"File creation Fata Error Failed"
"Resource Compile Failed"
Been searching the forum and found a topic where this error reported, but in a different situation from mine, and had a link to update to version 7.0.0.1060, I did it but did not solve my problem.
Could anyone give me a help regarding this error?

Make sure your project.res file is not read only… which is may be if it’s checked into a traditional style version control system.

I really try this, but I had the same error message.
I try delete the .res file, but F.B, can´t create it again. I don't know what to do.

Can you post the actual error message from the log? I checked our source code and the error message isn’t generated by us, which suggests it’s generated by the resource compiler. What settings do you have on the action. Make sure the Starting Directory setting points to a valid location as that is used by the resource compiler.

Thanks Vincent!
I use Subversion for source code control project, and I was just modifying the read-only property of .res file only, so I was not allowing updates it correctly.
Gave permission to the whole directory and came up with that .res file was updated correctly.
Thank you so much for your help.
