##[error]Error: The process '/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/5_18_2/bin/msbuild' failed with exit code 1

Question

I'm a bit of a newbie with Xamarin and I have an issue when building to app center, I hope someone can give me some pointers,

My app builds fine on iOS but it's coming up with this error for Android, could anyone please point me in the right direction?

Answer 1

This error shows that there was an issue building your application in App Center. App Center builds your application just like you do when you build your application in Visual Studio.

Just above the red ##[error]Error: The process '/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/6_12_7/bin/msbuild' failed with exit code 1 it should show you more details on why your application failed to build.

This example shows what the output could look like. A summary of the errors and warnings and the specific error details shown above the summary.

In this case there were 2 errors. Some namespaces used in these two files could not be found.

So when there is an issue with your in App Center have a look at the error detail to find your issue 😉
