Electron-builder: Windows ENOENT error on app-builder.exe

Created on 15 Jan 2018  Â·  16Comments  Â·  Source: electron-userland/electron-builder

  • Version: 19.53.6

  • Target: Windows 10

  • Shell: x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2017

Running electron-builder with following command: tsc && electron-builder

The build property of package.json:

  "build": {
    "productName": "Demo",
    "appId": "mycompany.Demo",
    "asar": true,
    "win": {
      "target": "nsis"
    },
    "nsis": {
      "oneClick": false,
      "allowElevation": false
    },
    "linux": {
      "target": "AppImage",
      "category": "Development"
    },
    "mac": {
      "target": "dmg"
    },
    "icon": "build/icon",
    "directories": {
      "buildResources": "/build",
      "output": "./dist"
    },
    "files": [
      "**/*.js",
      "**/*.html",
      "**/*.ts",
      "node_modules",
      "assets",
      "app"
    ],
    "extraResources": [
      {
        "from": "./build/some_api",
        "to": "some_api"
      },
      {
        "from": "./build/some_other_api",
        "to": "some_other_api"
      },
      {
        "from": "./build/some_file_path",
        "to": "some_file_path"
      },
      {
        "from": "./some_other_file_path",
        "to": "some_other_file_path"
      }
    ]
  }

Confirm that the above procedure works on Mac (on Linux other errors occur related to other issues already reported).

The following error occurs on running on Windows:

I am also having this issue. I did a little investigation and it seems that 19.53.3 is the first version with this issue. Let me know if I can help debug.

I'm getting this issue on Mac and Windows. Not Linux.
Also found it works on 19.53.2 and not 19.53.3

relevant extract from a travis build to help other searchers:

Works for me. Both on CI and local Windows 10 VM. Is file Caches/electron-builder/app-builder/app-builder-v0.4.0-x64/app-builder exists?

Please set env DEBUG=electron-builder and attach terminal output.

Maybe it will be fixed in 19.53.7

Checked, app-builder.exe exists in the mentioned directory.

Below the output withDEBUG=electron-builder flag. Just a note, arguments --root c:\build --root c:\my\project\path cwd=c:\build in the failing command seem strange to me, c:\build does not exist in any case on my PC.

no such FILE?
I suggest you should get the 'app-builder' file from github link and copy the file to your local path.

yarn add electron-builder or npm install electron-builder solved my problem.

For me this was Windows Security believing "\node_modules\dmg-builder\node_modules\app-builder-bin\win\ia32\app-builder.exe" was a trojan and removing it. yarn add electron-builder helped but windows kept removing it.

Edit: I came to this from getting error: GetModuleHandleA: (126) The specified module could not be found. when using yarn electron:serve. Just set an exception in Windows Security or other antivirus.
