Here's the good part. Once I realized my mistake it worked fine, I built the app and it vibrated as expected. I found it massively annoying so I took it out. Such is life. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com On March 1, 2022

Hi Mark, Thanks for responding. Indeed 'the revLicenseInfo` returned "...commercial". After re-licensing, it now says "...professional" - however, I still can't open a connection to an Oracle database. Re-licensing *did* make a difference: whereas previously it broke into the debugger, and

I have activated vibrate on my android build for my StarterStack and it worked fine. My Phone is running android 8.1. It mostly vibrates, but there are moments when it doesn't on one particular button. I hope that helps. On Mon, Feb 28, 2022 at 7:49 PM scott--- via use-livecode <

Hello all, Note that this is necessary for building standalone for **macOS**. The version of the downloaded command line tools does NOT matter in this case. I _think_ this command downloads the latest version by default, or at least the latest version that can be installed in your machine.
