I am trying to run some unit test in FinalBuilder using NUnit, the code I am building is 64-bit and calls some 64-bit ODBC drivers.

Now outside of FinalBuilder I can run these tests successfully with&nbsp;nunit-console.exe.  
Outside of FinalBuilder these tests throw exceptions when I use&nbsp;nunit-console-86.exe

FinalBuilder doesn't seem to want to play nicely with&nbsp;nunit-console.exe, only&nbsp;nunit-console-86.exe  
Unfortunately this is of no use to me as then the test don't work.

How can I get FinalBuilder to work properly with&nbsp;nunit-console.exe?

Thanks

Hi   
  
 I am going to need more information from you before I can help you with this.   
  
 When you say that nunit-console.exe is not working with FinalBuilder, what are you seeing? Could you please provide the error messages that you are getting in the log (or any other form of errors that you are getting).   
  
 Also, which version/build of FinalBuilder are you using? Which version/service pack of Windows are you running?   
  
 Regards,   
 Steve

Hi Steve,   
  
 Just come in this morning had a play around and all of a sudden it’s working. I guess I must have just been doing something stupid at the end of day yesterday.   
 Thanks for replying and sorry if I’ve wasted your time   
  
 Regards   
  
 Charlie
