RhoMobile rake Windows Mobile Error

I am receiving an error message whenever I try to compile a test RhoMobile application developed in RhoStudio. The test application was developed using the instructions provided here:

http://docs.rhomobile.com/rhostudio.tutorial

The compile command issued was: rake run:wm The error message received at the end of the compile sequence was:

CMD: vcbuild /M4 rhodes.sln "Release|MC3000c50b (ARMV4I)" rake aborted

I am running the application on Windows 7 64 bit, with the compiler configured according to these specifications:

http://docs.rhomobile.com/rhodes/build#build-for-windows-mobile

Would it be possible for somebody to inform me as to why this error message is occuring? Thank you.

Cheers

The first thing to check is your rhobuild.yml file and see if the windows mobile specifics are well configured. Mine for example has this:

cabwiz: "C:/Program Files/Windows Mobile 6 SDK/Tools/CabWiz"
vcbuild: "C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0/VC/vcpackages/vcbuild.exe"
msbuild: "C:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319/MSBuild.exe"

Also, is there any other message showing a vcBuild error?

I used to have this error for example:

vcbuild.exe : error VCBLD0007: Could not find project configuration
RELEASE|WINDOWS MOBILE 6.5.3 PROFESSIONAL DTK (ARMV4I) to build.

If you haven't already check in the Rhomobile Google group. There are probably similar problems there and can give an extra insight.
