It is exactly what it says: you are most likely running sencha from a wrong directory.

cd /where/you/extracted/ext-4.2.1
sencha generate app MyApp /where/you/want/myapp

Thank you, I donot understand in an asp.net application with extjs what is the need of installing sencha command. – Nayas Subramanian Dec 16 '14 at 10:50
Although I do not use Microsoft products so I don't have my own experience, [asp.net](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASP.NET) is a server side library/framework and Ext JS is a client side library. Hence, they operate more or less independently - of course the server side (asp.net) has to process requests from the client (Ext JS) and respond accordingly. – Saki Dec 16 '14 at 10:58
For that we donot need to install extjs through sencha command. We just have to refer extjs and extcss. And if it is a mvc structure we need we need to create a structure of app inside the application that has controller, view seperated. – Nayas Subramanian Dec 16 '14 at 11:07
As of now, you need to run this from the sencha touch folder `C:\Users\xyz\Downloads\sencha-touch-2.4.2-commercial\touch-2.4.2>sencha generate app MyApp D:\myapp` – ben_joseph Mar 02 '16 at 05:53

I made a big mistake- i was running from sencha command root. But it has to be running from Extjs version root. we have to create a worklocation inside it. their will extjs folder and from their we need run the command to create the App. Now it is working perfectly

You'll want to take a look at the cmd tools and workspaces.

A little more specifically take a look at the framework locations section of the page.

It's great to add links to resources, but it's much more helpful to include the relevant portions in your answer in case the links break in the future. – Taegost Feb 12 '18 at 20:14

It's better to go to the SDK folder just mention the SDK path in your command while generating the app:

sencha -sdk <YOUR SDK PATH> generate app <APP NAME> <PATH TO GENERATE APP>

Before creating any sencha app.
Understand 2 things.
1. Sencha CMD
2.Extjs framework.
Both are different.

Coming to point:.
1. Download the latest extjs framework.
2.Use the below command
sencha -sdk=path/to/ext generate app MyAPP path/to/worspace/of/MyApp

This will solve the above issue asked in question.
Danke,
Rahul
