Hi Carlos,
1) I am using a regular Imac build in 2008.
2) My time is synced with time.euro.apple.com
We recently had the summer saving time switch.
3) No non roman characters in the app name.

Can you run the "corona terminal" and look at the output in the window and fwd that to me?
Are you on snowleapord?

I think we may know what the problem is... is there a way you could send us the project so we can try it out here?

I believe this has been fixed, but I'm entering it as bug #117 so we can verify that.

Hi Mike and Carlos,
I am experiencing the same issue.
When I am building for an iPad the Simulator crashes after the build is done (and works ok) with the following error message:
-----
/Applications/Corona2.0-Beta7/Corona Terminal: line 9: 81326 Segmentation fault "$path/Corona Simulator.app/Contents/MacOS/Corona Simulator" $*
logout
-----
If I do the same build for iPhone it ends up with the following error, but build is ok:
-----
/Applications/Corona2.0-Beta7/Corona Terminal: line 9: 90456 Bus error "$path/Corona Simulator.app/Contents/MacOS/Corona Simulator" $*
logout
-----
After the Android build it generates the following one:
-----
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 25 seconds
Invalid memory access of location 0x31 eip=0x94859ed7
/Applications/Corona2.0-Beta7/Corona Terminal: line 9: 92550 Bus error "$path/Corona Simulator.app/Contents/MacOS/Corona Simulator" $*
logout
[Process completed]
-----
I am on Snow Leopard.
I hope it helps to fix it.
Regards,
Dusan

Can you reproduce this in beta8?
Can you send a system profiler save (xml is fine) to support @ anscamobile . com if you can.

Great, it looks like that it's ok now.
I am able to build it for all three devices (Nexus One, iPhone and iPad) in Beta8 without any error during the building process.
The only problem that am experiencing and not related to this issue is shifted screen on Android device (and Simulator too) when I use for Android the following property in config file:
application = {
content = {
width= 320,
height= 480,
scale = "letterbox"
}
}
Then the whole screen is shifted 40 pixels down. When I use image of 320x534 px as a background it works properly in Beta6 for Android (480x800) but not in Beta8. I guess it's because changes in automatic scaling behavior.
So I would need to change all graphics/code or to use old Beta6.
Or do you know simple trick that would fix it?
Overall Beta8 is really big improvement and thank you so much for all fixes and features! :)

@dpavlica -- that new behavior is by design: all the content scaling modes now default to centering rather than top-left alignment.
Therefore, when "letterbox" scaling from iPhone to Droid, you'll get the extra space split between top and bottom, rather than of all the extra spacing being at the bottom.
But! Now you can CHOOSE the alignment when scaling, using new xAlign and yAlign properties in config.lua. So you can get your old top-left alignment behavior back again, without rewriting your code at all.
However, looks like we still need to update the docs ( http://developer.anscamobile.com/content/configuring-projects#Dynamic_Content_Scaling ), so I'll update this thread shortly when the docs are in place.

That's exactly what I needed and it works as a magic! (yAlign = "top" parameter http://developer.anscamobile.com/content/application-configuration-options)
I should read release notes more carefully next time ;)
Now I have the same code with a bit of adjustment running great on all three devices (Android, iPhone and iPad).
You are awesome guys! :)
Thanks,
Dusan

To be true, since about 6-8 weeks I didn't do anything serious in Corona. I'll let you know if that problem still exists for me.
Couple of troubleshooting questions:
Are you using a hackintosh? ** We don't support hackintoshes.
is the time of your computer synched to apple clock? (see preferences panel synch clock)
Are there any non roman characters in your app name? like ñ ü ?
