I got this error while I am building application testing, I used sencha cmd and sencha version 2.2. Answer with a solution

is the problem of environment variables, In my setup sencha cmd C: \ Program Files \ Sencha \ Cmd \ repo.sencha \ codegen.json, the repo folder is not created in my cmd installation folder, is this a problem for this ??

Answer 1

This is due to write permissions in this directory. Change permissions or install sencha cmd on another drive.

Answer 2

Running cmd as an administrator solved the problem for me!

Answer 3

On Windows 7, installing Sencha cmd does not create this “repo” directory when installed in the Program Files / Program Files (x86) directory. Due to the fact that Windows 7 will not provide write access to this folder (and its subfolders), so cmd will not be able to create anything there.

First you need to go to the installation folder c: \ Program Files \ Sencha \ Cmd and create a new folder "repo" (for this you need administrator rights).

Secondly, you need to change the security settings of this "repo" folder and enable "full access" to the "Users" group.

From today, Sencha cmd has been working fine.
