Hi,

I was able to package my project in version 4.10.0 but since I updgraded to 4.10.1 i’m not able to package the project anymore.

This is part of the error message:

BuildCommand.Execute: ERROR: BUILD FAILED

Any idea what might cause this issue?

Thank you

I deleted the Build, Intermediate and Saved folders and tried packaging the project again. But without any luck.
So no solution yet…

I am able to package the project!
by creating a new first person template, and migrating the assets from the other project into this new project, i only migrated the map and with that all the other assets, opened the new project, simply clicked on package project
AND I WORKED!!
[so after all a simple solution, but i thought the problem was much more complex. But in the end i just had to start with a clean new project in Unreal 4.10.1

Got same problem.
Found that I am trying to build Shipping configuration with UBillboardComponent and PostEditPropertie function calls.
So I put

#if WITH_EDITOR
#endif

directive around all my code caused error in Shipping configuration and that’s it.
