xcode 4 distribution build problem

When trying to test my application created in XCode 4 on another computer (sent from an archive, just like the user guide says to do), I get this error in console. Any ideas?

3/27/11 10:20:16 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[106] ([0x0-0x27be7bc].xxx.test[86534]) posix_spawn("/Users/Matt/Dropbox/test.app/Contents/MacOS/test", ...): Permission denied

The permissions appear to be fine on everything, I can't figure it out.

Dropbox does strange things to file permissions in bundles (Mac / iOS apps are bundles). It seems like you changed Xcode's default build folders (now called "derived data", etc.) to point at this DropBox folder. Don't do that.

Make sure the app is built somewhere aside from this folder and I'll bet it'll work.
