Exception caught: No such file or directory

Reason:

You receive the following similar missing directory error when building a CA Gen application:

Exception caught: com.ca.genxx.bt.scripter.ScriptException:
[Function: Scripter.processOpenFile] ScriptException "
[Function: Environment.openFile]IOException opening file: "%GENxx%\Gen\sample.ief\make\CASCADE.MAK", (%GENxx%\Gen\sample.ief\make\CASCADE.MAK (The system cannot find the path specified))" at: file: %GENxx%\Gen\Gen\bt\scripts\build_ri_c.scr #: 213

"{[OPENFILE]} {LOC.MAKE_DIR}{RI_NAME}.MAK"

Compose Failed

Note: xx refers to the current release of CA Gen. For the current release number, see the Release Notes.

Action:

Ensure that all subdirectories referenced through the TARGET profile tokens are created prior to processing any builds. The Build Tool is not responsible for the creation of directories. Create the missing directory and rebuild.
