[Q] buildprop required for WT19i - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

hi everyone..
While installing custom rom on my WT19i today, I am getting following error message. I've installed custom roms hundreds of times but for the first time got this problem....
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "WT19i" ||
getprop("ro.build.product") == "WT19i"
E:Error in /sdcard/iuiandroid_WT19i-2.7.13.zip
(status 7)
In my view, build.prop is missing from my phone. Can anyone provide me with one or if there is another problem can provide a solution.
Thanks

Unpack the rom again, open the updater-script and delete only the first 3 lines:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "WT19i" ||
getprop("ro.build.product") == "WT19i");
show_progress(0.500000, 0);

and it should work. Because otherwise the command to format system isn't in the script
