React-native: URGENT :Unable to build

[gg3519]

While compiling the source code of reactnative we are getting following error:

Task :app:processDebugManifest FAILED
/Users/travash/Rayudu/Projects/NewNCC/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:22:18-86 Error:

I have also. Previously the project worked fine. I cleared cache and reinstall all packages and it didn't help.

Since yesterday I've been have this issue, I bet that it has something to do with AndroidX and the new support library versioning scheme. Can't make it work yet, though.

[rhamretskyi]

I found a solution for my case. This was due to update Google Play Services and Firebase I changed versions to previous and it works:
googlePlayServicesVersion = "16.1.0"
firebaseVersion = "17.6.0"

[Poyser1911]

For me it was around:

1. cd into android and run ./gradlew app:dependencies
2. Override any denpendencies with androidx stuff under it with the previous version
   example:
   In the app/build.gradle:

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy.force 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:16.1.0', 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-basement:16.2.0', 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-stats:16.0.1'
}

These lines alone fixed it in my case.

firebaseVersion = "17.6.0"

Yep this finally resolved my issue also! Seems like this error was caused by mixing AndroidX with the older com.support.* libraries. More specifically Google Play and Firebase

\--- com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:+ -> 19.0.0
|         +--- androidx.collection:collection:1.0.0 (*)

For those looking, add the following to your gradle.properties then clean/rebuild

googlePlayServicesVersion=16.1.0
firebaseVersion=17.6.0

I also upgraded Gradle to 3.4.0 in build.gradle and 5.4.1 in gradle-wrapper.properties in accordance with RN v0.59.9.

[mhkhung]

After 2 full days.. I got my RN 0.55.2 project to work by:
android/app/build.gradle:

    implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:16.0.1"
    implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:16.0.1"
    implementation(project(":react-native-device-info"),  {
      exclude group: "com.google.android.gms"
    })
    implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:16.0.0"
    implementation(project(":react-native-push-notification"),  {
        exclude group: "com.google.android.gms"
        exclude group: "com.google.firebase"
    })
    implementation(project(":react-native-google-analytics-bridge"),  {
      exclude group: "com.google.android.gms"
    })
    implementation(project(":react-native-google-signin"),  {
      exclude group: "com.google.android.gms"
    })
    implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:16.0.8"

and to android/build.gradle:

buildscript {
    ext {
        googlePlayServicesVersion = "16.+"
        firebaseVersion = "17.3.4"
    }

        resolutionStrategy {
            force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-basement:16.0.1"
            force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:16.0.1"
            force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-stats:16.0.1"
            force "com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:16.0.0"
        }

[brunoluigi]

Adding these 2 lines to the project level build.gradle saved my life:

buildscript {
    ext {
        ...
        googlePlayServicesVersion = "16.+"
        firebaseVersion = "17.3.4"
    }

Thanks @mhkhung.

I didn't figured out the big picture here but my guess is that some plugin in my project has an infamous "+" Firebase version as dependency that screwed up everything...

Duplicate of #25173

[mhkhung]

I am sure 100s of teams world-wide are burning out last 2 days from this Google problem. #25173 has the right directions but not the full solution. Essentially you will need to keep doing
./gradlew cleanBuildCache && ./gradlew clean && ./gradlew app:dependencies
until you get rid of all the androidx in the dependencies output.

Good luck!

This solved my issue :)

googlePlayServicesVersion = "16.1.0"
firebaseVersion = "17.6.0"

I had to add it to the before-plugins.grade

dependencies {

project.ext {
    googlePlayServicesVersion = "16.1.0"    
    firebaseVersion = "17.6.0"
}
configurations.all {

    compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crash:9.4.0'        
   and so on....

Thanks. You save my life 👍 .

Put it into build.gradle

thanks a lot guys, you are the best!

[JosephMulder]

I was using the node module react-native-device-info, just had to change my dependency in build.gradle to

implementation(project(":react-native-device-info"),  {
  exclude group: "com.google.android.gms"
})
