Builder cannot find Unity

append delete 22 Dec ’22 · 20:30 indoflaven

Win: Windows 10 Home 10.0.19044
Builder: 3.53
SDK: Not sure how to tell the version
Build Log is empty
Unity Install Location: C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2022.2.1f1

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Unity Technologies\Installer\Unity 2022.2.1f1\Location x64 does correctly point to the above location.

After upgrading to iOS Builder 3.53 I see the following error when building my project:

Building the dependency project GameAssembly...
+ Preparing output directory...
+ XCFrameworks: 0 supplied
+ Libraries: 17 supplied, 0 built
+ Frameworks: 1 supplied, 0 built
+ Pre-parsing project files...
+ Building libGameAssembly.a for iphoneos (configuration: Release)
Error: this Unity project requires the Unity 2022.2.1f1 IL2CPP host compiler installed on your machine. Please install Unity version 2022.2.1f1, then try again.

I do have this specific version of Unity installed. So for some reason the builder cannot find the Unity install. Any idea how I can address this issue?

il2cpp.exe is located here:

C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2022.2.1f1\Editor\Data\il2cpp\build\deploy

Looks like I need to fix something in the master build script. Thank you for reporting.

Please open build.cmd with a text editor, go around line 1875 or so and replace the line that says :

% build.cmd
		if exist "%%b\Editor\Data\il2cpp\build\il2cpp.exe" set IL2CPP=%%b\Editor\Data\il2cpp\build\il2cpp.exe
%

with :

% build.cmd
		if exist "%%b\Editor\Data\il2cpp\build\deploy\il2cpp.exe" set IL2CPP=%%b\Editor\Data\il2cpp\build\deploy\il2cpp.exe
%

Let me know if it fixes the problem.

*edit* there's no line wrapping here, just "build\il2cpp.exe" becomes "build\deploy\il2cpp.exe" in 2 places.

Oddly, this did not fix it. FYI - the echo I added below does not print. I'm not familiar with CMD syntax, but does this mean that code with the updated folder path does not even run?

%
	for /F "usebackq tokens=3,*" %%a IN (`reg query "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Unity Technologies\Installer\Unity %UNITY_RUNTIME_VERSION%" /v "Location x64" 2^>nul ^| find "Location x64"`) do (
		echo chickenbutt
		if exist "%%b\Editor\Data\il2cpp\build\deploy\il2cpp.exe" set IL2CPP=%%b\Editor\Data\il2cpp\build\deploy\il2cpp.exe
	)

Exactly. It means the code doesn't run.
You could certainly as a quick workaround, hardcode the IL2CPP path, i.e. slap a

%
set IL2CPP=C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2022.2.1f1\Editor\Data\il2cpp\build\deploy\il2cpp.exe
%

just before the error pops up, but I'd rather understand why querying your registry doesn't work in the first place...

*edit* would you mind e-mailing me an export/dump of your "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Unity Technologies\Installer" key ?

append delete 22 Dec ’22 · 22:49 #5. Pierre-Marie Baty

When you open a command line window (cmd.exe, not PowerShell) and you type:

%
for /f "usebackq tokens=3,*" %a in (`reg query "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Unity Technologies\Installer\
Unity 2022.2.1f1" /v "Location x64" 2^>nul ^| find "Location x64"`) do @echo %b
%

does it print

%
C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2022.2.1f1
%

as expected ?

Yes:

I have to study that more closely. Please check your e-mail.
