Ext.ux isn't your namespace, the framework comes with classes already in Ext.ux and it has a specific place to find them within the SDK and you're custom files aren't in there. You want to avoid changing anything inside the SDK file tree as it will get wiped out every time you update the framework along with other headaches like this.

Put your custom classes under your application's namespace+folder or create a new namespace and add its folder to classPath in .sencha/app/sencha.cfg

I believe your app is called "SenchaCmd" so you should define your controller as SenchaCmd.controller.auth.Sessions and put in in SenchaCmd/app/controller/auth/Sessions.js

That's the problem, I did not make any custom modification to the SDK file tree.
That's based on the self-generated code from sencha cmd (I am just testing it before moving to it).

Steps to reproduce (on a computer with no Sencha applications/frameworks):
- Download and extract Sencha Touch 2.1.0rc2
- Download and install Sencha Cmd 3.0.0.230
- Navigate to the Sencha Touch 2.1.0rc2 SDK and generate an application ("sencha generate app -p my/path")
- Navigate to the generated application and run "sencha compile concatenate" <= The error is raised

Running in the web browser works.

Maybe I'm not calling the right command.
My goal is just to compress the file like in ExtJS 4 so I have only one "app-all.js" that includes all the dependencies so I do not need the full framework and it's much faster to load.
Something similar to the old create JSB3 then create app-all.js from that file.

How can I achieve that?

Auto-Reply: Actually, "sencha app build" which is now working after installing compass seems to do what I was looking for.
The "compile" tools are just independent tools used during the build process?

Actually, "sencha app build" which is now working after installing compass seems to do what I was looking for.

Right, "sencha app build" is the way to build a generated app. You can use the low-level commands like "sencha compile" but there are many steps to producing an app, especially a Sencha Touch app beyond just that.

Good to hear you have compass working. Just in case you (or someone else reading this) needs to disable compass, you can set the "skip.sass" property for your app in .sencha/app/sencha.cfg, for the whole workspace in .sencha/workspace/sencha.cfg or locally (for you only) in ./local.properties (this file won't exist by default). Whichever file is appropriate, add this line:

skip.sass=1

The "local.properties" file is intended to be ignored by source control and kept locally only.

Obviously disabling compass can help speed up your builds but can give you stale results if something in the SASS changes.

The "compile" tools are just independent tools used during the build process?

Yes, the compile command is a rather low-level command. We use it internally for building apps to keep things simple and stay at a pretty high-level. There are other situations, however, where you might need to take more direct control over the compile step. There are some guides on some of these here:

http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-1/#!/guide/command_app
http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-1/#!...and_app_single
http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-1/#!...mand_app_multi

And the compiler reference:

http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-1/#!...mmand_compiler

OK, thanks for your detailed explanation.
I don't really mind having it enabled.

Just a quick recommendation then: include compass along with Sencha Cmd so we don't have to install a full Ruby/Gem environment if we don't need.

A big THANK YOU for "skip.sass=1"!!! - I have been trying for an hour to get compass running in my Debian build-server and probably nuked most of ruby in the process. While compass may be a wonderful tool (I don't know and haven't got a clue about SASS) it sure is a pain to get installed and even after I *think* I got everything right, still "sencha app build production" did not work on a completely new project:

[INFO ]        [shellscript] /home/msa/.rvm/bin/compass: line 6: /home/msa/.rvm/bin/compass: Argument list too long
[INFO ]        [shellscript] /home/msa/.rvm/bin/compass: line 6: /home/msa/.rvm/bin/compass: Success

You must have added some other sources than I have:

Hello,

now Sencha Cmd states that build command obsolete and recommend to switch to compile. But when I try to compile a freshly generated app, it outputs error from the first post in the thread. How could I address this?
I have Sencha Cmd v3.0.0.250 and Sencha Touch 2.1.0.

First off, please post the exact command you are running and the error message(s) you get. I suspect the choice of commands is the issue you are running in to.

Secondly, I would recommend upgrading to the current patch release (3.0.2) but that won't effect this issue. In a nutshell, with a generated app, when you run "sencha app build" there are some files excluded from the Sencha Touch framework. I believe this is one of a small number in the "ignores" set. If you are running a direct "sencha compile" command then this ignored set will not be used - you would need to add that to the "sencha compile" command line... that said, I don't think you want to run "sencha compile" for a generated app - "sencha app build" is the high-level build process that covers compilation and more.
