From the log last week where build succeeded, it is pulling Android 25 for 6.2.3:

You have been opted out of telemetry. To change this, run: cordova telemetry on.
Using cordova-fetch for cordova-android@^6.2.3
Adding android projectā€¦
Creating Cordova project for the Android platform:
Path: platforms/android
Package: com.xxxxxx.xxxxxx
Name: xxxxx_xxxx
Activity: MainActivity
Android target: android-25

Today their build process is pulling Android 26 for the same specified version of 6.2.3:

You have been opted out of telemetry. To change this, run: cordova telemetry on.
Using cordova-fetch for cordova-android@^6.2.3

Android target: android-26

Are you does cordova platform update android@6.2.3 on project?

from config.xml

have not done any updates to this project and last week config worked with same value.

i have opened a ticket thru my ionic pro account. i have had sporadic build issues in the past, colleague had an IoS issue that lasted 1.5 days, two weeks ago, with no real explain of why IoS builds were failing. It was enough for him to cancel his account. Given I donā€™t believe there is anything i have done to make this happen, i would like to know what testing is done prior to making (public) gradle script changes that they are using in ionic pro build/packaging.

The solution to this problem until Ionic includes Android 26 is to downgrade the cordova-android from android@6.3.x to android @6.2.x which will then use android-sdk-25.

To do this, changing the android engine in the config.xml will not suffice, you must change the cordova-android plugin in your package.json as this is what Ionic Pro Package is using to build the project

Yes. That works fine and the packaging will succeeed

Just to clarify, I changed my package.json to:

"cordova-android": "6.2.0",

which fixed the problem for me.

Hi Folks! So it appears the Android-26 API issue is due to a mis-match cordova-android issue.

If youā€™re attempting to build and package your app, please make sure your config.xml and package.json do not contain a ^ or a ~ in the version/spec.

Thanks, I was having this issue too and was about to open a ticket, but I suspect this will solve my issue! A+

Sem-ver, itā€™s neve that easy :smile:

Glad to be able to help!

This totally worked for me. Please remember to remove the ā€œ^ā€ i.e. change ā€œ^6.2.3ā€ to ā€œ6.2.0ā€

Hey @mhartington,

Iā€™ve come across the same problem with ā€˜ionic package build androidā€™ with cordova-android 6.3.0

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'android'.
> Failed to install the following SDK components:
  [Android SDK Platform 26]
  The SDK directory (/opt/android-sdk) is not writeable,
  please update the directory permissions.

However, the build works locally with ā€˜cordova build androidā€™ with cordova-android 6.3.0.

I have plugin that seems to only work on the latest cordova-android 6.3.x

Do you know if ā€˜ionic package build androidā€™ will work with cordova-android 6.3.0 soon without having to downgrade?

Thanks =)

19

Hey friend!

Use downgrade process to work build with android@6.2.3, all plugins same work android@6.3.0.
Remember to look your config.xml and package.json remove ^or a ~ in the version/spec as quoted @mhartington.

I hope help you!

Hey @medeiraf,

Thereā€™s an issue with google play dependencies when using multiple plugins (ie. background geolocation + phonegap push plugin) (This thread) that was fixed in cordova-android 6.3.0, but will not work in 6.2.x.

So thatā€™s why Iā€™m asking if thereā€™s a way to get android@6.3.0 to work on ā€˜ionic package build androidā€™?

Iā€™ve tried to build locally with android 6.3.0 and itā€™s working.

Thanks for the reply though!

Hello @donw,

Iā€™ve problems much problems with upgrade to android@6.3.0 doesnā€™t work on ā€˜ionic package build androidā€™ anyway in my case.
Locally itā€™s work normally however on ā€˜ionic package build androidā€™ failure:

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'android'.
> Failed to install the following SDK components:
  [Android SDK Platform 26]
  The SDK directory (/opt/android-sdk) is not writeable,
  please update the directory permissions.

I donā€™t know a solution, no forward me a solution. Now wait for a method to work on the latest cordova-android 6.3.x
:frowning:

Did you find the solution ? Iā€™m stuck in it too
Can you help me out please ā€¦
