Haiiiiiiii...
Can anybody please explain what the error like " List index out of Bounds 49 " is? This is repeated for any project after compiling....

You should supply us a very small compilable program that gives this error,the compiler version and PIC type.
This information is necessary to answer your query

compiler version ???

I used an 18F46k22 PIC...

It compiles fine for me(succeeds).
>>> Warning 208 "46k22_base.c" Line 2(1,5): Function not void and does not return a value main

though the warning refers to 'main' being a function

There was a single compiler update in mid 2011, that did this for some people. It was replaced in only a couple of days with a working version.
It's an error from the language the compiler is written 'in', not the compiler itself, and depended on how the compiler was installed. A default clean install into the standard locations worked OK.

So 'compiler version'?. Do a re-install.

Compiler version is 4.120.
I found that if I try to compile a file created months ago the problem doesn't occur. If I rename that file and try to compile it the problem occurs.

That would be about right on the compiler version. Mid 2011'ish.
I don't think anyone ever worked out why it happened. A few people had it, but no-one else did. It might be something to do with the default file permissions/ownership.
