Forums » Help » problem with baking

Hi guys, this is my first time baking, everything's seems correct as the php path seems fine and no errors displays but I don't get the game.min.js file.

this is my bake.bat:

@echo off

:: Path to impact.js and your game's main .js
SET IMPACT_LIBRARY=lib/impact/impact.js
SET GAME=lib/game/main.js

:: Output file
SET OUTPUT_FILE=game.min.js


:: Change CWD to Impact's base dir and bake!
cd ../
php tools/bake.php %IMPACT_LIBRARY% %GAME% %OUTPUT_FILE%


:: If you dont have the php.exe in your PATH uncomment the
:: following line and point it to your php.exe

c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.3.9/php.exe %IMPACT_LIBRARY% %GAME% %OUTPUT_FILE%

pause

please help :$

Your call to the php.exe is missing the tools/bake.php file as first param. Try this:

c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.3.9/php.exe tools/bake.php %IMPACT_LIBRARY% %GAME% %OUTPUT_FILE%

Also, delete this line. If you don't have PHP in your PATH, it wont do anything anyway:

php tools/bake.php %IMPACT_LIBRARY% %GAME% %OUTPUT_FILE%

Hey thanks alot! It worked.

I'm having a similar issue with the .bat file:

'C:/xampp/htdocs/xampp/php.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external com
mand, operable program or batch file.
Press any key to continue . . .

@echo off

:: Path to impact.js and your game's main .js
SET IMPACT_LIBRARY=lib/impact/impact.js
SET GAME=lib/game/main.js

:: Output file
SET OUTPUT_FILE=game.min.js

:: If you dont have the php.exe in your PATH uncomment the
:: following line and point it to your php.exe
C:/xampp/htdocs/xampp/php.exe tools/bake.php %IMPACT_LIBRARY% %GAME% %OUTPUT_FILE%

pause

Bump.. Could really do with an answer because I need to able to test my demo on my domain.

Well, do you have a file called php.exe at 'C:/xampp/htdocs/xampp/php.exe'?

No but when I changed the bat file to read like so:
C:/xampp/php/php.exe tools/bake.php %IMPACT_LIBRARY% %GAME% %OUTPUT_FILE%

I got this error:
Could not open input file: tools/bake.php
Press any key to continue . . .

Still no joy with this. Can't release or demo preview code until i can get past this hurdle.

How do you start the .bat? Where is the tools/bake.php? The cd ../ should still be present.

@echo off

:: Path to impact.js and your game's main .js
SET IMPACT_LIBRARY=lib/impact/impact.js
SET GAME=lib/game/main.js

:: Output file
SET OUTPUT_FILE=game.min.js


:: Change CWD to Impact's base dir and bake!
cd ../
C:/xampp/php/php.exe tools/bake.php %IMPACT_LIBRARY% %GAME% %OUTPUT_FILE%

pause

This should allow you to just double click the .bat file to bake.

Otherwise, add PHP to your PATH and use the default bake.bat.

Right I'll give that a go tonight when I get home from work.
