Build for android fail with no error message

[dev_s_]

Hi,

For some reason, probably a change i made cause my project build to fail for android\crosswalk.

The build log contains no error:

The build failed.

An error occurred while building the application. Verify your build assets are correct and try again.

Build Log:

• Building a Cordova 4.1.2 application.
• The application name is "MenuWays"
• The package name is "com.softbraintech.menuways"

Is there a way to see the log file\error message ? 

The build for iOS is ok.

We planned to upload to google play next week and we are unable to build for android anymore.

Thanks.

Hi, The link to the build log can be found right under the the build failed message. It looks like one of your plugins is failing to install. Could you remove all plugins other than the ones listed as installed in your build log? See if it builds after that and this will help narrow down the problem.

There is no link to the build log, I copied the entire screen.

I will try the plugins option you suggested

Thanks

I found that the below two plugin are causing the build to fail (they worked well last time i build for android)

https://github.com/phonegap-build/PushPlugin.git

https://github.com/danwilson/google-analytics-plugin.git

Did you check to see if the author of the plugin pushed changes to each of the plugins?

If the author pushed changes that we do not yet support, you will need to specify the version of the plugin you had previously used.

Hi Dev,

John is right. The push plugin has been updated 5 days ago and the google analytics sometime in July. You should use the older version of the plugin that was previously working for you.

I just confirmed that PushPlugin had a new release recently, https://github.com/phonegap-build/PushPlugin.git released an update to 2.5.0 from 2.4.0 that caused the build to fail. So for now, use version 2.4.0 - https://github.com/phonegap-build/PushPlugin.git#2.4.0

There are 2 ways to avoid this issue in the future:

1. Download the plugin locally and include it that way.

2. Determine which version of the plugin you are using and happy with and re-add the plugin specifying the version when its added so that version will always be used even if the author updates it.

Thanks for the help.

Anyway it will be better if the build screen will have the link for the build log in such a case (most of the times it has - not in this case)
