Failed to execute aapt with cordova

cordova

I am working on a cordova project that has been working fine for a while, and suddenly I started to get a very strange error whenever the build reaches ":app:processArm64DebugResources" when builing with the command "cordova run android --device".

I have tried removing and adding platforms, running the clean command, updating plugins and more. This error only affects one of my Cordova projects though, when I try to build other projects there is no error.

Here is the output:

Add this plugin to the project and it will fix everything

cordova plugin add cordova-android-support-gradle-release --fetch

This has something to do with an update Google did to Android 28 rc that adds two new fields. Thank the gods someone shared a plugin to the world to fix it.

For those who facing this issue after 17/06/2019. After spending number of hours on this issue finally found the solution. This build failure is due to a Major version release of the Google Play Services and Firebase on 17/06/2019 

ionic cordova platform rm android
ionic cordova platform add [email protected] 
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx 
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-androidx-adapter

Note: This will resolve your issue

Note: If you are using cordova-plugin-firebase and encountering errors, you can use this plugin which is published as cordova-plugin-firebasex and is fixed to resolve issues caused by the new Firebase SDK:

rm -Rf platforms/android
cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-firebase
rm -Rf plugins/ node_modules/
npm install
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-firebasex
cordova platform add android

I hope this will help.

cheers!

I tried the solution shown here, and now, I built successfully with Android.

Open file platforms/android/app/build.gradle

add 

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy {
        force 'com.android.support:support-v4:27.1.0'
    }
}

after 

dependencies {
    ...
}

This happened to me in July 2020 on a Ionic V1 project, my way to fix it was to upgrade cordova-android from 7.1.4 to the most recent, which was 9.0.0 at the time, and also change the min android sdk version.

ionic cordova platform rm android

// if your project had much trouble building and you prefer a clean build, you may do:
// rm -rf node_modules platforms plugins package-lock.json
// npm install (and maybe npm audit fix later)

ionic cordova platform add android@latest

In config.xml, change or add this (the value 22 may be different in your time):

<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="22" />

And finally I was able to build with

ionic cordova build --release android
