can't build a package. but why?

[darstellungsart]

Hello, I wanted to create a project package, but UE (Unreal Engine) shows no interest in executing it.
I could let the packaging run for hours without anything happening.
Can someone help me with this? UE 5.3

Hi,

You never posted the error.

This tells us nothing.

Can you upload the entire log?

[darstellungsart]

The whole log is too long to post.
He has no errors, only either he is super slow or he is hanging somewhere. I left the PC running for 3 hours, and nothing more comes out than what is in the log.

It’s just a really small VR archviz scene, and my PC has an Intel 13900k processor available for the calculation.

[Leomerya12]

If you do not “REPLY” I won’t get a notification that you responded.

I noticed two things:

1. “CookSettings.bUseSoftGC: Available physical memory 16281MiB is less than the current target for SoftGC 16290MiB.”

-But not sure if this is an issue. Make sure you have enough memory.

-And, MORE IMPORTANTLY:

2. “…is marked for virtual streaming but virtual texture streaming is not available.”

This is your issue:

Streaming Virtual Texturing | Unreal Engine 4.27 Documentation.

Thank you very much!, that has already been very helpful.
Now he is making progress compared to before.
However, he starts to encounter a problem again at a point where there is an asset that was in the scene but has been completely deleted from the content and the level.
So, it can no longer be found in the project, but he still wants to include it… why?

Anytime you delete something Unreal WARNS you not to do this. You should listen to the warning because deleting one thing can affect everything else.

It’s like chopping off a finger; the rest of the body has to now adjust with one less finger. The finger isn’t its own thing.

You should REFRESH ALL REDIRECTORS:

If this doesn’t work, then you’ll need to MIGRATE your project to another EMPTY project.

Translate to English: "Thank you very much for the response.
Unfortunately, the ‘fix up directors’ did not help, and I wanted to migrate the project as you suggested. There’s only one problem - it also gets stuck when migrating directly in Unreal.
I find it astonishing how Unreal just falls apart at every corner because I deleted a rock. Maybe the editor just hates me.

So, we come to the next question… how do I migrate it without Unreal freezing during the migration process? Can I simply copy the content folder, or will Unreal have a meltdown after that?"

[Leomerya12]

I don’t think copying the folder will work, because Unreal may look for references in your OTHER project.

Migrating tells Unreal to move the addresses to a new location.

What exactly happened when you tried to migrate? Can you post a photo/video?

[darstellungsart]

Thank you for taking a look. Unfortunately, in the log, you can’t see which file is causing the problem. It’s likely the same file that’s preventing the packaging process. Additionally, when it hangs, I am unable to abort the process and have to close UE through the task manager.

[Leomerya12]

Okay, what you’ll need to do is migrate each folder, individually, to find the “culprit”.

I know, this will be annoying, but it’s the only way.

[darstellungsart]

Thank you again for the help.
I noticed that the levels are the problem. I have now copied everything except the levels that were causing issues and created a new project a new level. At least the packing is working now.

Just my solution to this problem from a few weeks ago. I had moved my assets between folders months prior and I was receiving the same error messages stopping the packaging. Where the assets had previously been, there were 3Kb (as opposed to the proper 33Kb) files with the asset’s old names. These seemed to be acting as shortcuts(?) and were the source of the errors. I deleted them and it resolved the errors and a host of other nonfatal warnings.
