Update: after commenting out the PackageMXP target, the "ant -Dbuild.number=20141204 -Dbuild.noprompt=release" command worked, but the compilation fails with the same error: "The definition of base class Error was not found."
Alex, after that I also did an "ant main", which was successful, but now the compilation fails with "Error:[project-name]: Invalid version specified, ''" Now, I'm happy to do a release build again, but after that the piece that I see missing is the correct AIR SDK, which I suspect is the reason for the error. And the script that I see downloads it is makeApacheFlexForIDE.bat, right? Well, if I run it like this: "makeApacheFlexForIDE.bat "c:\Users\evolverine\workspace\sdk", it fails with this message: __________________________ Copying the Apache Flex SDK from ..\.. to "c:\Users\evolverine\workspace\sdk" Cannot perform a cyclic copy 0 File(s) copied Exiting: error 4" __________________________ which, upon checking why, makes sense - it's trying to copy a folder on top of itself. So the script wasn't meant for putting the AIR SDK (and other IDE requirements) in the same folder as the source distribution?
