Nativescript-cli: Can`t run projects: Execution failed for task ':mergeF0F1DebugResources'

[Thenilko]

My tns version is : 3.2.1
Windows 10 Enterprise.

I am trying with this project -> https://github.com/shripalsoni04/nativescript-webview-interface-demo

I am always getting this error:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong:
  Execution failed for task ':mergeF0F1DebugResources'.

  D:\Work\NativeScript Projects\nativescript-webview-interface-demo-master\platforms\android\build\intermediates\exploded-aar\com.android.support\appcompat-v7\26.0.0-alpha1\res\drawable-xxhdpi-v4\abc_textfield_search_activated_mtrl_alpha.9.png: Error: File path too long on Windows, keep below 240 characters : D:\Work\NativeScript Projects\nativescript-webview-interface-demo-master\platforms\android\build\intermediates\exploded-aar\com.android.support\appcompat-v7\26.0.0-alpha1\res\drawable-xxhdpi-v4\abc_textfield_search_activated_mtrl_alpha.9.png

@Thenilko this error might occur on Windows if your folder is deep in the file system and because Windows has a limitation of maximum file path of 254 symbols the build process might not be able to create longer paths.

As a workaround try moving your project in the root directory of your Windows partition and rebuild again. In your case try moving the project to D: (instead of D:\Work\NativeScript Projects\) and perhaps renaming the project folder from nativescript-webview-interface-demo-master to something shorter like demo.

Let me know if this has resolved your issue.

Hey @NickIliev , thanks for the quick response.

Now I get this error in console and emulator as well:

@Thenilko ERROR_UNSAFE_RESOURCE is only available on API 26, so trying to access it on APIs lower than that will cause the crash that you've experienced. Consider adding a check in your code if your device is of the proper version before accessing the constant.

Another way to avoid the issue is to compile against a lower Android SDK Level.

tns run/build android --compileSdk 25

[Thenilko]

After execution of this command tns run/build android --compileSdk 25, I have the same error.

[petekanev]

@Thenilko I think executing tns run without any changes to the app/App_Resources directory will not trigger a build where the lower android sdk will be used, so you should instead try tns build android --compileSdk 25 which will force a build, with most build artifacts cached. Follow that by tns run android --compileSdk 25.

Thanks!

[Thenilko]

Yes man, that`s it. Thanks. I have the same issue with all my projects. So i am gonna test them now.

[petekanev]

@Thenilko thanks for reporting back. I'll look into the original issue, and let you know when we've addressed it.

[petekanev]

@Thenilko well, I was wondering why the problem looked familiar, and I thought we had fixed it previously, only for it to pop up again. I peeked at the package.json, and it appears that the android runtime is a rather old version, almost a year old now.

If you remove the platform, and add the latest available (3.2), you should not have to manually pass --compileSdk, as the underlying problem was fixed in the platform.

tns platform remove android
tns platform add [email protected]

Since the project is a bit old too, you will have to include an app.gradle in the app/App_Resources/Android directory too. Like this one - https://github.com/NativeScript/template-hello-world-ts/blob/master/App_Resources/Android/app.gradle . Better yet, create your own project and only copy the xml and .js files which you may use.

[Thenilko]

Could you please help me with this project: https://github.com/cfjedimaster/NativeScriptDemos/tree/master/rssTest2

@Thenilko The project appears to be outdated, but the problem seems to stem from the fact that your files have not been parsed properly. Your best bet is to create your own project using the tns cli:

tns create rssFeed

And copy-pasting the relevant pieces in the demo application. Mind you, some APIs might have changed, considering how outdated the project, and the plugin it uses are.
