Android Build Failed

Harliano1211 · September 9, 2015, 3:40pm

Hi,

I’m new to ionic and it’s very interesting to know more about it.
But I have a problem. When I try to execute ionic build android command it comes to build failed result. The detail message is like this:
:CordovaLib:processDebugResources FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ‘:CordovaLib:processDebugResources’.

com.android.ide.common.internal.LoggedErrorException: Failed to run command:

Command failed with exit code 1
You may not have the required environment or OS to build this project

And when i try to start my android emulator, it wont show up.

please help me to fix this issue.

thank all

Depends on your platform, but when I had this issue for just plain “ionic platform build” (on Windows machine), I just had to run:
npm update -g ionic cordova (and bower, since I am using it as well)
After I ran this command, I simply ran:
ionic platform rm android
ionic platform add android
ionic build android

worked like a charm! You may need to run CMD prompt as administrator if you dont have permissions.

Dellos7 · September 24, 2015, 7:40pm

Hi again,

I finally found a solution, the problem was that I didn’t have intalled some necessary libraries.
I fixed it by installing the following libraries:

lib32stdc++6
lib32z1

I’m using elementaryOS Freya, a Linux distribution.
I installed them via linux terminal:

sudo apt-get install lib32stdc++6
sudo apt-get install lib32z1

Source: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27589844/android-studio-1-0-2-not-building-appmergedebugresources-error

I hope this works for you too.

Harliano1211 · September 25, 2015, 3:52pm

Hi Dellos7,

thank you for sharing, unfortunately when I try to run your suggestion mac cannot support command apt-get. It said that:
apt-get: command not found

then I try to run using this:
brew install lib32stdc++6
Error: No available formula for lib32stdc++6
==> Searching formulae…
==> Searching taps…

brew install lib32z1
Error: No available formula for lib32z1
==> Searching formulae…
==> Searching taps…

I still try to find out what happen to my developing environment for android.

gayanpathirage · February 9, 2016, 6:41pm

As you may have already found, this error can be visible due to many reasons. Hence you need to find actual reason behind the error.

Instead of issuing just;

ionic build android

Navigate to platform android folder; normally located in below path

cd [your_project_folder]\platform\android

And issue below command;

gradlew.bat --info build clean

This will list the actual issue, rectify that and redo the build.

Hope this is helpful!

stells · March 7, 2016, 6:18am

I struggled with this problem for days! Thank you so much. Works wonderfully.

Silverium · April 1, 2016, 9:35pm

In my case, the problem was caused by some files inside my project which had non-UTF8 characters.

I had some pictures named like “instalación.jpg” (the “ó” latin character was causing the issue).

After replacing the names of the files, the build was OK.

penafiel_sebastian · April 24, 2016, 7:05pm

Thanks It worked for me on Ubuntu.

lathonez · April 27, 2016, 10:45am

Thanks worked for me on Travis (ubuntu 14.04)

Cozen · April 27, 2016, 3:27pm

I’ve got a similar issue.
To find a workaround, I’ve created a new blank project.
The compilation and emulation was good.
I figure out there were a problem in my www folder.
After some multiples test, one of my picture got that name : 'Clément.png".
Removing the accent to get ‘Clement.png’ just fixed my problem…
A lot of pain.

airtonbjunior · May 10, 2016, 5:58pm

Thank you, man!
I had a similar problem here, and was solved by changing the names of some images that had special characters.

Best Regards!
