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. ---

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](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27589844/android-studio-1-0-2-not-building-appmergedebugresources-error) I hope this works for you too. ---

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. ---

> 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! ---

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. ---

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. ---
