Carlo,
I’ll upload exactly what is created from scratch from the version I have (10.0.0.2285).
WebAsmTest2.zip (475.2 KB)
Marc,
You mention Publish there and I don’t see a Publish menu item. Should there be one? Once one has made a WebAssembly project and has built a debug and release versions, how does one publish? Won’t there be a Debug and Release folders under the Web folder (if the output of the compile puts the wasm and other files under the Web folder as I think you are saying Fire does) and so I can’t just copy the Web folder to some IIS server box?
But I assume you aren’t using VS 2017 which must be doing things differently I’m guessing.
Here is what I get:
And here is what Edge Developer Tools says which points out some html minor errors:
I seemed to have missed this part; but you said 10.0.0.2285, that’s quite a few weeks old. Can you try latest beta?
Sure. I mentioned the version earlier. I thought that was the latest non-beta one, but I don’t even remember what I downloaded since it was more than a day ago 
Too many things to keep track of 
I’ll download and give it a whack. Back shortly…
yeah, but it does show the complete mismatch with what we’re seeing and you are
No, YOU mentioned publish 
“Do you have a solution for the PUBLISH problem”
Marc,
So how is one supposed to publish the webassembly project? Usually when I create web projects, there is a Publish menu item that allows me to publish a debug or release version and eliminates references to whether it is a debug or release version.
So how is one supposed to distribute these projects. Are we supposed to manually put together the html etc. and the debug or release code into a new folder and then copy that to the web?
Carlo,
I navigated to the portal myself and I see a bunch of choices. I probably had an older email announcing a new version of RemObjects with WebAssembly and just clicked on the link and didn’t see that it was taking me to some older versions. (It has been a year since I retired and I’ve been too busy being retired to do any programming.)
I see immediately by going to the portal myself that there is an Elements with Water, so I know that wasn’t on the page the link took me to because I would have noticed and tried to figure out what Fire and Water were and which one I needed.
Sorry for the confusion. If the version is the whole source of my problem, I apologize since I didn’t realize there was a newer one. (I thought it was really odd that no one else was having trouble and posting messages about it)
Would you still like me to get the latest beta, or just get the latest stable one?
… time passes …
Uh oh. I downloaded the latest beta and installed it. When I started up and tried to create the project, it asked about a license for Island. Is that now a separate license? If so, I’m going to have to look into getting it…
Then I doubly apologize, old version, not licensed. Island was apparently being tested in the version I got. I looked through my deleted emails and didn’t see where I got it, so I may have been searching for news of RemObjects on the web and a link there took me to that old version. Nothing Is Ever Easy…
Off I go to check out licensing etc… will get back to this later.
No island is the same license. You might have to re-login for the download though.
I checked my license. It says Oxygene. And the Water thing says it requires Elements license. I downloaded and installed 2305. But when creating the project in VS, that is when I got a dialog:
Click Change next to mtied, and re-enter your details.
Ok. I’ll have to figure out my password again Back shortly…
… time passes …
Bummer. After changing my password because I couldn’t remember it (usually I rely on the browser to remember), I got past the license dialog. I recreated a new webassembly project and… All the same bad results 
Same mismatch between index.html and wasm32, same error messages in Chrome, etc.
… time passes …
Tried Water which is the FIRST time I’ve seen it, and just created a new webassembly project and it doesn’t compile. It says “semicolon required”, but it looks like there is one there. I’ll poke around and see if I can figure out what it is talking about until I hear back from you on making the project work in VS 2017.
niee (Nothing Is Ever Easy)
… time passes …
ok, the Water build said:
E: identifier expected, got "module" [C:\Users\mtied\Documents\RemObjects Software\Elements\Water\Try 2\Module\Program.pas (1)]
E: semicolon (;) expected, got "module" [C:\Users\mtied\Documents\RemObjects Software\Elements\Water\Try 2\Module\Program.pas (1)]
I think I’ll uninstall this beta and go back to the last stable build…
… time passes …
Ok, with last Stable Water version. Same problem. I guessed that maybe it didn’t like the default name “module” so I changed it to MyModule. Then it compiled and didn’t complain about the name. (probably default should be something like “module1” or something that isn’t a reserved word if that is the problem).
But it got a different error still.
E: There was an exception executing the Island WebAssmebly linker: 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'
I’m assuming I should be creating a WebAssembly Module (there is a Static Library WebAssembly further down the list).
p.s. The error messages has a typo in the “WebAssmebly” word.
Indeed, “module” is a reserved word in Oxygene…
oops. fixed.
Can you set the build log to the highest level in Tools|Options, ands see if you get a fuller description for the NRE?
Yes, a Module is an “app”, a library is just a “dll-like” library you can put shared code it to reference from a module later.
I turned that on in Water. Where is the log for Water?
… time passes …
Ah, I see an option at the top there that SHOWS the log. Here it is:

Marc,
See the log in my previous message (I figured it out just before you posted )
… time passes …
How do you turn OFF the log? I tried doing a second Ctrl+Alt+B and I tried clicking on the Message Show Build Log a second time. So far, I can’t get rid of it.
Never mind… I figured it out. I needed to change back to Minimal…
thanx. thats something Carlo will have to handle tomorrow, I’m afraid. This happens with a new project from template, no changes, with .2305?
Yes. I think so. Didn’t pay exact attention when tried 2305. Just installed it and tried and it failed. I’m fairly certain it failed the exact same way. I’ll go back to 2305 and try it again to be sure.
