Re: [pde-build-dev] Exit code 13

Exit code 13 is returned from Main when it wants the launcher to display an error message.  Generally, the error message will just be "an error has occurred, check your log file".  Look for a log file in your configuration directory.


Did this solve it for you?

I'll have to remember to check whether th error message even gets as far as the log next time.

Some of the causes for us were:

A dodgy install of Windows SP2 (we are still on SP1... go figure), re-image of SOE fixed the problem.

If the PDE fails with Exit code 13 at the point where a zip is being created, try deleting the zip file.  I think cause is a corrupt zip and because PDE updates the zip this may be the problem.

Also make sure that you have the correct JDK at the front of the path, not a JRE, or other Java installations. Be wary of Oracle and Rational.

Doing a clean and rebuild often fixes the problem, especially if the JDK setup in Eclipse is different to the one on you command line path.
