Waitmutex exited with code 6 (MSB3037)

Development Programming & Scripting C++

So I was scripting, following a series when I ran into this problem. I know this error can be caused by UPROPERTY, but I have no idea what triggers this conflict. Here is my UPROPERTY code:

326982-help.png

(this is a header file)

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error MSB3073 The command “E:\UE_4.26\Engine\Build\BatchFiles\Build.bat FPSGameEditor Win64 Development -Project=“E:\StealthGame_ProjectBase_4.25\StealthGame\FPSGame.uproject” -WaitMutex -FromMsBuild” exited with code 6. FPSGame E:\Visual Studio stuff\MSBuild\Microsoft\VC\v160\Microsoft.MakeFile.Targets 46

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!

It says I’m using 4.26 in the dir, but I’m using a downloaded template that was made in 4.25.

Never mind. I spelt category wrong. For anyone else who has this error, check your UPROPERTY code for any misspelling.

It worked for me by choosing rebuild instead of built

Had the same mutex error on a brand new project, the “close Unreal and Rebuild” method worked for me.
This was for a blueprint project where I added a C++ class to fix the Off World Live packaging issue.

Just updated from UE 5.1 to 5.1.1

This error can trigger in multiple situations :hot_face:.

For example, it can be caused by a duplicate .cpp filename or by a typo or wrongly placed UPROPERTY macro.

I wonder if there is a way to make this error more informative for the user?

If this error is caused by a UPROPERTY (many causes are possible), I have found that Rebuilding the project can trigger an actually informative warning message to appear, but for duplicate filenames, there is no way to get more information about the underlying error.

ye…@lovelacestudio your solvation worked for me … in visual-> games → your project name → right click and rebuild

This was also the answer for me.

I updated Visual Studio (Community Edition) and received this error during my next build.

Cleared Binaries/Intermediate folders and regenerated Visual Studio files and I still got the error.
A Rebuild Solution was what worked for me.

Close UE5 and rebuilt it
