Quote from Don:

For building Sencha Touch apps with Sencha Cmd V3, you will need Sencha Touch 2.1 Beta 3

Scott.

[dongryphon]

Also to build Sencha Touch 2.0.x apps you need SDK Tools v2

Admin no one has replied to this thread. Those two previous comments are irrelevant. I have the same error and running the latest stuff as of this posted date. Sencha Touch 2.1.0 commercial, SDK Tools V2.0.0, Sencha Command v3.0.0.250. All of this to no avail. Please address this issue as I am a windows user who is stranded at the first step and unable to create/generate an app from the sencha command.
Creating app from the Architect works but I don't have the Model-View-Controller architercture in the project though. Not cool at all...

The most likely cause of this message is combination of the current directory and the command you are executing. If you can provide the exact steps you are taking (full command lines) and the output from Cmd that would help.

For example:

   /path/to/something>sencha -debug generate app MyApp apps/myapp

I also want to mention that looking at those generated apps from the video presentations they do not have '.XDS' files. I believe this is equivalent to a solution file that enables Sencha Architect to load projects. Please correct me if I am wrong.<br><br><br>My cmd prompt ouput below<br>

Sorry I didn't notice this last time... As Scott mentioned, Sencha Cmd requires Sencha Touch 2.1. If you need to use Sencha Touch 2.0, you will need the older SDK Tools v2.

[pedrika]

You need to specify the sdk(lib dir), for extjs 4.1 try:

sencha -sdk ../ext-4.1.1a/  generate app extjs .

[A4muser]

Make sure you are in the sencha sdk directory when running the generate command
