Very good idea! :-)
I thought it were intentional that the script gets deleted...

You're right, I set that for something other (can't remember what, I 
tried so much...), don't know if that was really the error, but I reset 
it, renamed Build - et voilà! IT WORKS! :-) Thank you!

about that if I stay failing.
