CordovaLib:processDebugResources FAILED

When I want to build an application on ionic (a blank, test project), the command “ionic cordova build android” returns this error:

BUILD FAILED

Total time: 1 mins 13.795 secs Error: /home/usuario/testeo/platforms/android/gradlew: Command failed with exit code 1 Error output: /home/usuario/Android/Sdk/build-tools/28.0.2/aapt: /home/usuario/Android/Sdk/build-tools/28.0.2/aapt: no se puede ejecutar el fichero binario

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

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

com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: Failed to execute aapt.


I tried to reinstall many times Android SDK. I also tried differents versions of Android tools/platforms (25, 28) but it did nothing.

I’ve been dealing with this issue for more than 2 days at work, so i would really aprecciate if someone could offer some help :slight_smile: .

My info:

What is your ionic info output? What you posted is nice, but doesn’t cover everything.

Ionic CLI?
There is a newer version available. Update.

Your Cordova tooling seems to be out of date, which might be causing all kinds of problems.
