Nativescript: tns build android problems

[paschaldev]

When I run tns-build-android from the cli on a blank app the process fails at :processF0DebugResources. I even used the Hello world templates, process fails too.

But if I clone the sample-Groceries project, it builds successfully. Checked online and found solutions like:

tns platform remove android
tns platform add android
Moving the node_modules folder
Checking and deleting (if any) all zip, .tar, .gz
Restarted my system

Nothing works, but if I clone the sample-Groceries and build, it works successfully:

PS: Buildtools version was explicitly configured to version 22.0.1 because I use an old mac which can only support @ highest Mac 10.7.5 (Lion). Also, the platform-tools is not the latest, but a version that works for Mac 10.7.5. Apart from that, everything works flawlessly with the sample-Groceries.

This is the output from the terminal.

Builds the project for Android and produces an APK that you can manually deploy on device or in the native emulator.

Options

* --compileSdk - Sets the Android SDK that will be used to build the project.
* --release - If set, produces a release build. Otherwise, produces a debug build. When set, you must also specify the --key-store-* options.
* --key-store-path - Specifies the file path to the keystore file (P12) which you want to use to code sign your APK. You can use the --key-store-* options along with --release to produce a signed release build. You need to specify all --key-store-* options.
* --key-store-password - Provides the password for the keystore file specified with --key-store-path. You can use the --key-store-* options along with --release to produce a signed release build. You need to specify all --key-store-* options.
* --key-store-alias - Provides the alias for the keystore file specified with --key-store-path. You can use the --key-store-* options along with --release to produce a signed release build. You need to specify all --key-store-* options.
* --key-store-alias-password - Provides the password for the alias specified with --key-store-alias-password. You can use the --key-store-* options along with --release to produce a signed release build. You need to specify all --key-store-* options.
* --copy-to - Specifies the file path where the built .apk will be copied. If it points to a non-existent directory, it will be created. If the specified value is directory, the original file name will be used.

@paschaldev Could you navigate to /Users/Paschal/Desktop/ns/backup-unlimited/platforms/android/, execute ./gradlew --stacktrace and then post the output from the process? Also, what version is the nativescript (CLI) package? What about the tns-android package?

[paschaldev]

The nativescript and tns-android is the latest. I just installed it 3days ago. I will send the stack trace output as soon as I get on system

[NickIliev]

He @paschaldevwe - we haven't 'heard from you for a while - have you managed to resolve your issue!?

[JELaVallee]

I just had this same issue and was able to resolve it by doing the following:

1. Clean-up what's most-likely a mess at this point...
   
   
   
   1. tns platform remove ios
   
   
   2. tns platform remove android
   
   
   3. rm -fr ./node_modules
   
   
2. Fix it... Maybe...
   
   
   
   1. tns install <- That one is important!!!
   
   
   2. tns platform add ios
   
   
   3. tns platform add android
   
   

Seems that if you've used npm >3.x then the module flattening is messing up Nativescript in some way... By using tns install you're forcing the nativescript-cli to use the version of npm specified in it's dependency list... 2.x.something.

Saw this in a different feed/repo, I think, but it's gotten me closer to a clean build execution. Now I'm just dealing with a bootstrap failure on simulator... :-/

[NickIliev]

Hey @JELaVallee thanks for tyhe reported solution to this issue.
I will close this one as resolved - if you need instruction on your bootstrap failure do not hesitate to contact us at the Nativescript/nativescript-angular or at SO

Am Passing thru hell trying to make nativeScript run on android. but I still get ERRORS

Starting DaemonProcessing node_modules failed. Error: Command gradlew.bat failed with exit code 1

and my directory structure has no space in it.

[irums]

I just updated to NativeScript 3.0 and am getting the same error.

Starting DaemonProcessing node_modules failed. Error: Command gradlew.bat failed with exit code 1

[dirisujesse]

Irums It appears you have a 32 bit JDK installed on your machine, if that is the case install a 64 bit version and the error should not re occur

[mbdrian]

i got same error while i run tns run android or tns build android
output:
Command npm.cmd install [email protected] --silent --save-exact --save failed with exit code 1

i do research on my own, i check directory platform and it was empty.
i following step from @JELaVallee but i got the same error when i type command tns platform remove android
