Error generating R.java from manifest

What does this mean? And how I fix it?

Answer 1

I got into this error and wasted around 3 hours to resolve this actually the problem is when using new android SDK you got into this error. Basically some files are moved into the build-tools directory in new sdk but they should be in platoform-tools directory So, In simple words just copy the aapt.exe file , dx.bat file and lib folder into platform-tools directory hopefully this will solve your issue. This is a bug which is reported into JERA. This Link will Help you

Try this and tell me back if this resolved your problem.

"There are a number of reasons that this can happen. Firstly, are you setting an application name in the correct format, which is com.yourcompany.appname? Pay attention to the hint text of the field before you type anything.

Also, file or folder names containing non-ascii characters can cause problems.

Lastly, if you have any non-ascii characters in your js files, you need to ensure that the files are encoded using utf8.

Please report back if you find the solution.
