File I/O fault usualyy comes when the specified path in.pkg is not found.

Are you able to crate a unsigned sis file successfully.

No, sis file has not get generated.
Only Certificate and Keys are generated !!

sis file is not getting generated that means something from your .pkg file is not available in the path mentioned.

Look for line number which hav eerror of file I/O fault.

How you are creating your sis file?

Please try creating unsigned sis file, by selcting "Dont sign sis file" option from the build configuration.

And if still sis file downt get genrated in your sis folder then in the carbide "problems" window which comes at the bottom look for the file it doesnt get.

SIS file has generated. I have executed : makesis xxxx_gcce.pkg

When I tried to create sisX file, It is giving the same error ( file I/O fault, cannot open .)

signsis xxxx_gcce.sis xxxx_gcce.sisx

sis file is in some other format, I am not able to open it notepad...

How can I check the error ?

Hi,

can you please check in gcce udeb/urel whether your exe is created or not..

I/O results when the expected file doesn't exist in the path specified in the package file and further more

signsis xxxx_gcce.sis xxxx_gcce.sisx selfsign.cer selfsign.key

multiviews_gcce.PKG
multiviews_gcce.SIS

when your sis has .sis extension then why your rae signing .sisx file

format for signing:

signsis helloworldbasic.sis helloworldbasic.sis <Path>\<certificate>.der <Path>\<certificate>.key


signsis multiviews_gcce.SIS multiviews_gcce.SIS <Path>\<certificate>.der <Path>\<certificate>.key
