VC++ 2017 : Error trying to compile .rc file with RC - visual-c++

Question

I am trying to compile a .rc file to link the generated .res file to my linker to get my project resources to be included in my .exe.
The problem that I have is that I can't get RC to compile my .rc file.
I always get the same error message :
Blockquote fatal error RC1109: error creating stuff.res
And the verbose option doesn't help much and only adds this:
Blockquote Using codepage 1252 as default
I added my resources to my .rc using the resource editor dialog, I didn't write the file myself. The only thing that I did is to change the type "TXT" that I first though good to "RCDATA" in the above code :
// Microsoft Visual C++ generated resource script.
//
#include "resource1.h"
#define APSTUDIO_READONLY_SYMBOLS
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Generated from the TEXTINCLUDE 2 resource.
//
#include "winres.h"
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#undef APSTUDIO_READONLY_SYMBOLS
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Français (France) resources
#if !defined(AFX_RESOURCE_DLL) || defined(AFX_TARG_FRA)

#ifdef APSTUDIO_INVOKED

END

"\0"
END
#endif // APSTUDIO_INVOKED

#endif // Français (France) resources
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#ifndef APSTUDIO_INVOKED

The IDS I am using are all defined in my .h file :

#define _APS_NEXT_CONTROL_VALUE 1001
#define _APS_NEXT_SYMED_VALUE 101
#endif
#endif
I used several commands to compile my file , all resulting in the same error message. As I start to have tried all the options available, I feel a bit lost.
Blockquote rc /d DEBUG /i c:/source/stuff/resources filename.rc
I tried without or with less options(/x /l). My project is in DEBUG configuration . I am sure that i don't have a typo in my path here cause i paste it from the file explorer.
I also tried to compile a just auto generated .rc file without adding any resources to it and RC still won't compile it.
What I want is Rc to generate a single language dependant .res file , not two.
I'm ashamed with the idea of asking you about some command line problem, but i'm pretty much a newbie and I really don't get what is going on here. Any suggestion is very welcome as I really would like to be able to use RC.
