Unity2017.2 : build error : UnityLinker.exe did not run properly!

Thank you for your responses.
Yes, Windows uses Mono scripting backend.
I sent a bug report - put the number as soon as I receive one; sorry, I did'nt clean or compact the project.

Good luck.

 

Hi,
I have not received a number yet; I understood that there is a queue of reports and only after the Unity team reproduce the problem, they send a number to my email. I don't know how is the medium time.

Tried to update to 2018.1.4f1 without success.

 

Updated Unity IAP but that didn't help. Set API compatibility to .NET 2.0 and it didn't work. Restarted PC and it worked. Set compatibility back to subset and it worked. Tried again about 5 minutes later and it didn't work.

Using 2017.1.1f1

 

Considering that some times worked,
- did you tried to delete Library directory on the project to force recreate it (don´t be afraid, unity recreates)?
- your project directory has special characters? if yes, rename it to remove them
- If your version it is not Personal Edition, tried to disable Analytics?
This suggestions I found in the forum abou the same problem, but , unfortunatelly they not worked for me.
Good luck

 

I saw the delete library folder comment earlier, did it and started Unity up again but still got the same error. Gave up (left Unity running) and came back some time later and it built consistently a few times. Restarted Unity just now and it built correctly the first time, produced the same error the second time and then built fine the third time. Really odd and super annoying.

Only had Firefox and VLC open in the background. I wonder if Kaspersky is blocking a file or something, though I haven't changed anything there.

 

Getting similar errors for WebGl project after upgrading the project from 2018.2.6f1 to 2018.3.0b1.
- WebGL project
- Changing API levels didn't help.
- Removing ads. analytics, IAP packages (all added by upgrade) didn't help.
- Deleting il2cpp cache in Library didn't help.
- PC platform builds fine, WebGL fails.

I think I should also mention I started using Unity Hub for the first time while upgrading from 2018.2 to 2018.3. Maybe it helps.
Also reported bug: Case 1083122

 

Fixed it for me. Thanks!

 

I also had a problem with Unity 2018.2.18f1 and the error "UnityLinker.exe did not run properly!" when exporting WebGL (windows 7). I tried all the tips, but nothing helped until I installed the .NET Framework 4.7 and the update for Windows KB4019990. After that it worked.

I hope this help someone else.

 

My problem was solved in this way ，ThankYou！

 

So here is some follow up. That time I had to revert back from 2018.3.0b1 to 2018.2.6f1. Later I received an email reply to bug report:

Now I tried updating from 2018.2.17f1 to 2018.3.0f2 hoping the release version may have the fix. Still getting same errors and unable to build for WebGL.

- Should we move to 2019 beta or revert back to 2018.2?
- Which 2018.3 is expected to have the fix? How can I trace it?
Thanks.

 

Thank you @JoshPeterson .This was very helpful.

 

Hi @JoshPeterson,
I just tested 2018.3.4 but unfortunately the issue is not fixed yet. Any chance you may have updates on the version expected?

 

Hi,
I also hit the same problem. I'm on Unity 2018.3.4f1 64-bit, Windows 10 64-bit, developing for android, switched to IL2CPP because I needed 64-bit support. I did every single suggestion I found on the net but the error continues.
I badly need a fix for this because it's the only way to compile 64-bit android app.
Please post any progress on this.
Thanks,
Yasar

 

I found a workaround. It's somehow related to regional format setting. Mine was Turkish, tried setting it to English (US) and English (Netherlands), both worked without any error, and game ran fine. On my system, everything except regional format setting was English (US).

I don't know which exact component of regional format causing this, but I guess problem is about writing and/or parsing arguments, since error message mentions "Unknown arguments".

Now il2cpp can build armv7, arm64 and x86 for android.

(scripting runtime version: .net 4.x equivalent; api comp. level: .net standard 2.0; strip engine code: true)
(Unity 2018.3.4f1 64-bit, Windows 10 64-bit)

 

I have upgraded to 2018.3.4f1, i can not build anything with il2cpp, but mono Works.
If it helps, i am also on Turkish Windows 10.

EDIT: I can confirm it is the language issue, after changing the computers language to English, i can now build with il2cpp.

 

I confirm that this issue (case 1083122) is fixed at Unity 2018.3.5, as stated at its release notes.

Thank you =)

 

EDIT: Looks like this plugin's native dll's are causing problem with 2018.3.5f1. I'm submitting a bug report to Unity and plugin author.
https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/modeling/trilib-model-loader-package-91777

After updating to 2018.3.5f1 I now get different errors.
- Deleting il2cpp_cache did not help.

Did you try with a new blank project with default packages?
I updated through the Hub and new update works for me.

 

Thanks a lot. The project builds finally.

 

I am having this issue for Lumin Builds on 2019.3.6

 

I am using Unity v2019.4.0f1
i am seeing these 2 errors:

Please help, I am completely stuck. I tried everything from here, from everywhere, but no help.

 

I have .NET Framework version 4.6.2 in my computer, and I can't update it. Can this is the reason of problem?

 

this is the complete path of UnityLinker.exe file
C:\Program Files\2019.4.0f1\Editor\Data\il2cpp\build\deploy\net471/UnityLinker.exe
there is net471 in path which is looking like .NET 4.7.1 requirement for running UnityLinker file. when i am clicking on UnityLinker file it is showing me unitylinker stopped working and this message in command prompt:

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'netstandard, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
at Unity.Linker.UnityDriver..ctor(String[] args)
at Unity.Linker.Program.Main(String[] args)

do you know what is the meaning of above message?

while, i downloaded today Unity version 2018.4.23f1 and clicked on UnityLinker of this unity version and there is no error on file.

i am completely lost, just trying to guess the problem.

 

Same result with empty project. what should i do? which unity version i can download to solve this problem?

 

But when i try to open my project with 2018.4 everything lost (I have backup fortunately).

 

Here Is The Solution !!

 

so? is a fix somewhere? @ISTA33 that video doesn't work

 

It's for me building normal iOS.

 

Oof, I just pressed "Add Open Scenes" and I think it's working now. This error will occur if your project has no scenes!!!

 

Nope, still not working :/
