Cant Create First Project

cocos2d-x
1

hi guys.

I’m new to cocos2d and I’m finding it rather difficult to create my first project.

I’m using a Mac OS X 10.10.3

i have downloaded coco2dx 3.11.1.

  1. opened Terminal.

  2. set path to cocos directory.

  3. executed ./setup.py and all the ROOTs were found. - skipped al android related

  4. when i tried to execute /Users/guyhazi/.bash_profile
    i got:
    -bash: /Users/guyhazi/.bash_profile: Permission denied

  5. when i tried to execute cocos new MyGame -p com.MyCompany.MyGame -l cpp -d /Users/guyhazi/Desktop/cocop
    i got:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File “/Users/guyhazi/Desktop/cocos2d-x-3.11.1/tools/cocos2d-console/bin/cocos.py”, line 22, in
    import cocos_project
    File “/Users/guyhazi/Desktop/cocos2d-x-3.11.1/tools/cocos2d-console/bin/cocos_project.py”, line 4, in
    import cocos
    File “/Users/guyhazi/Desktop/cocos2d-x-3.11.1/tools/cocos2d-console/bin/cocos.py”, line 936, in
    language, encoding = locale.getlocale()
    File “/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/locale.py”, line 530, in getlocale
    return _parse_localename(localename)
    File “/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/locale.py”, line 443, in _parse_localename
    raise ValueError, ‘unknown locale: %s’ % locale name
    ValueError: unknown locale: UTF-8

any idea guys?

you need to execute source ~/.bash_profile

add this:

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

to your ~/.bash_profile and re-execute: source ~/.bash_profile
