    Hi,

    Looks like one of your DLLs is referencing a type that's not available in the .NET profile you're trying to build with.

    Are you by any chance building with .NET profile set to "2.0 subset"?

    Hi,

    You right chef!

    Merci!

    But do you why it worked on 5.1 (.NET subset) and not in 5.2 ?

    Thanks !

    No idea. Maybe you got lucky, or maybe you the DLL in question didn't reference this particular type which is unavailable?

    I am getting the same error now that I have upgraded to Unity 5.2.

    This happens even though I am using .NET 2.0 and not the subset.

    I'm also getting this error after upgrading to Unity 5.2.

    I did initially have my project set to ".NET 2.0 Subset" but even after I changed to ".NET 2.0", I'm still getting these errors trying to build for iOS.

    @Tautvydas Zilys

    With my plugin I get this stripping error no matter what settings I use(.NET 2.0 or .NET 2.0 Subset, Strip Engine Code on or off). My plugin doesn't use these classes (directly, at least), and worked fine with Unity 5.1!

    Yes, I'm getting a new build error like the above with 5.2, but our plugin was working fine in 5.1.1 and 5.1.2 also 5.1.3. 5.2 broke our stuff. That's just no good.

    Do you still get the error if you disable the Strip Engine Code option in iOS Player Settings? Looks like it's enabled by default in Unity 5.2.

    thought i'd jump in too, I'm not working with the same dll/plug-in but I also tried disabling the strip engine code check box, and I still get the Failed running /UnusedBytecodeStripper2.exe error seems like a similar issue.

    I haven't been able to reproduce the issue locally. The settings I'm using are basically the defaults. I'm using the Unity Ads Helper as a test app with Unity Ads enable in the Unity 5.2 Services window (instead of using the Unity Ads asset package from the Asset Store).

    Key settings to check:
    • Scripting Backend = IL2CPP
    • Architecture = Universal
    • API Compatability Level = .NET 2.0 Subset
    • SDK Version = Device SDK
    • Script Call Optimization = Slow and Safe
    Configuration for iOS Player Settings that I'm using as follows:

    Screen Shot 2015-09-08 at 3.27.09 PM.png

    One other thing you might try is copying the Assets and ProjectSettings directories to a new directory and opening that directory as a project in Unity 5.2, allowing it to rebuild your Library and reimport all assets.

    Same problem here... Tried copying the entire project folder to a new one, deleted all .meta files, and open the project. This indeed imported all assets again but the error remains the same:

    Failed to resolve base type System.Security.Principal.GenericIdentity for type System.Net.HttpListenerBasicIdentity

    Any thoughts?

    None of the suggestions worked for me so I had to (painfully and regrettably) revert back to Unity 5.1.

    I have the same problem. None of proposed solutions worked. What's even more interesting, our project doesn't use plugins, so I don't understand what part of program references System.Net.HttpListenerBasicIdentity.

    Just to add to the choir, I have the same problem when I switched from 5.1.3 to 5.2 that iOS building is not possible any more. Android works though. I tried exactly the settings shown in the screenshot by Nikkolai. I don't know how to to find DLLs which may or may not cause the error. What is the advised process to nail down the source of the problem?

    [Error] Failed running /Applications/Unity/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/Tools/UnusedByteCodeStripper2/UnusedBytecodeStripper2.exe -out "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/tempStrip" -l none -c link -x "/Applications/Unity/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/Tools/UnusedByteCodeStripper/native_link.xml" -f "/Applications/Unity/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/il2cpp/LinkerDescriptors" -x "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/../platform_native_link.xml" -x "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Temp/StagingArea/Data/methods_pointedto_by_uievents.xml" -x "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Assets/link.xml" -d "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed" -a "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/Assembly-CSharp-firstpass.dll" -a "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/Assembly-CSharp.dll" -a "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/Assembly-UnityScript.dll" -a "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/UnityEngine.UI.dll" -a "/Users/rxxxo/Unity/project/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/TouchScript.dll"

    Okay, here is the solution:

    1. In Player Settings switch from IL2CPP to Mono in Scripting Backend
    2. Then find the now appeared dropdown "Stripping Level" and change it from "use Micro mscorlib" to "Strip Byte Code"
    3. Switch Back to IL2CPP in Scripting Backend

    iOS Compiles fine now.

    Was experiencing this- updating my Prime31 plugins (IAPCombo / etcetera / etcetera2) seemed to fix it.

    We noticed this internally as well and merged a fix for it yesterday. The fix did not make the 5.2.0p1 cut-off, but it will be in 5.2.0p2. Until then, the workaround described by @actraiser3 is valid.

    Confirmed it works, but the compile throws an error (not blocking):

    Have you or anybody else seen problems with the Android deployment? Both a colleague and I moved to 5.2 and are unable to build a .apk, we're getting access errors about files in the Temp\StagingArea folder. Deleting Temp, rebooting, restarting Unity, didn't fix the issue, I had to go back to 5.1.3.

    Yes, that worked for me too. However I now get Apple Mach-O Linker Error in XCode along with over 300 warnings. Back to 5.1.2p3. Can't waste any more time, not cool Unity.
