    I've got a project running on Unity 4.6.9 that fails on all build targets with no clear error message.

    The last few lines of the build log:

    Code (CSharp):
    1. 1482: [Unity] Initializing Unity.PackageManager (PackageManager) v4.6.9 for Unity v4.6.9
    2. 1483: [Unity] Setting Android v4.6.9 for Unity v4.6.9f1 to /UNITY_PATH/Unity/Unity-4_6_9/Unity.app/Contents/PlaybackEngines/AndroidPlayer
    3. 1484: [Unity] Setting BB10 v4.6.9 for Unity v4.6.9f1 to /UNITY_PATH/Unity/Unity-4_6_9/Unity.app/Contents/PlaybackEngines/BlackBerryPlayer
    4. 1485: [Unity] Setting iPhone v4.6.9 for Unity v4.6.9f1 to /UNITY_PATH/Unity/Unity-4_6_9/Unity.app/Contents/PlaybackEngines/iOSSupport
    5. 1486: [Unity] Setting GUISystem v4.6.9 for Unity v4.6.9f1 to /UNITY_PATH/Unity/Unity-4_6_9/Unity.app/Contents/UnityExtensions/Unity/GUISystem/4.6.9
    6. 1487: [Unity] Platform assembly: /UNITY_PATH/Unity/Unity-4_6_9/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/Managed/Mono.Cecil.dll (this message is harmless)
    7. 1488: [Unity] Platform assembly: /UNITY_PATH/Unity/Unity-4_6_9/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/Mono/lib/mono/2.0/UnityScript.dll (this message is harmless)
    8. 1489: [Unity] Platform assembly: /UNITY_PATH/Unity/Unity-4_6_9/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/Managed/ICSharpCode.NRefactory.dll (this message is harmless)
    9. 1490:  ! Unity player export failed!
    10. 1491: ! build of 'default-android' failed. compile failed
    11. 1492: Build step 'Execute shell' marked build as failure
    12. 1493: done.
    13. 1494: postbuildstatus finished successfully.
    14. 1495: Deleting project workspace...
    15. 1496: Finished: FAILURE
    16. Status: FAILED
    The log is the same for android and web player, just "default-ios" instead of "default-android" in the error message. Any ideas what might be causing this?

    Hi there,

    Can you direct message me a link to your project in Cloud Build?

    I know this is an old thread, but I am getting the exact same issue:
    ! Unity player export failed!
    With no other errors anywhere in the log (all platforms)

    Very curious to know if a solution was found for this issue.

    Have you checked the full log rather than just the compact log? If you have and still can't find the error, send me a PM with a link to the build in question.

    Yeah, I did check the full log.

    I sent you the links for the project and logs.

    Solved!

    Just to follow up on this in case someone else has similar problems.
    The problem was one of the [PostProcessBuild] functions was trying to open an EditorWindow (a build report plugin in our case).
    Since Unity Cloud Build builds your project without the visual editor (-nographics mode), this would crash Unity.
    Unfortunately, there was no stack trace in the logs to help find the culprit.

    So in conclusion, make sure you check every [PostProcessBuild] function in your project, and validate that what they are doing is also valid for a Cloud Build. If not, segment it out using #if !UNITY_CLOUD_BUILD.

    I wonder if that would also be a problem for editor extensions that popup windows on start-up. I wouldn't be surprised if I found one of those on my project that was causing the crash!

    We are having the same issue. Our all build targets are failing.
