Launching New Local Engine Failed--(solved)

When I try to build my project in the defold IDE I get this error.

However, when I run it from VS Code using the defold kit extension…it actually launches.

It used to work, until I started testing with Spine and I enabled github for my project. So not sure what the cause of the problem is. But very strange to me I can build from VS Code but not Defold IDE.

Any suggestions?

Well I thought I fixed it by deleting the folder. But the problem has resurfaced.

@schlista you are posting the same problem in multiple places. It is hard for us to understand if it is solved or not.

This linked post was made AFTER this post which implies that you solved it and it was an issue with the drive sync.

Do you still have a problem? Yes or no?

I ended up fixing it by trying several past versions of the extension. Eventually by swapping versions to older and older ones then moving to the current one…it fixed itself. So some how the extension was corrupt and not sure why a simple delete (fetch)…add didnt’ fix it, but it’s working now.

I didn’t want to post because everytime I posted I fixed it…it broke again :slight_smile:
