libavcodec.so: has text relocations

Question

I'm testing Android 6.0 on a Nexus 5 and i'm using Metaio (I know that the service is going to end on the 15th of december but for that date we'll move to another AR platform). The problem is that when I start the ARActivity I get the following error:

    09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dlopen failed: /data/app/com.myapp.myapp/lib/arm/libavcodec.so: has text relocations     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary(Runtime.java:372)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:1076)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at com.metaio.sdk.jni.IMetaioSDKAndroid.loadNativeLibs(IMetaioSDKAndroid.java:54)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at metaioCloudPlugin.SplashActivity.loadNativeLibs(SplashActivity.java:37)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at metaioCloudPlugin.SplashActivity.onCreate(SplashActivity.java:68)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at android.app.Activity.performCreate(Activity.java:6237)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java:1107)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2369)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2476)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at android.app.ActivityThread.-wrap11(ActivityThread.java)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:1344)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:102)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:148)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:5417)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Native Method)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:726)     09-02 08:45:11.138: E/AndroidRuntime(6141):     at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:616) 

Does anyone know a possible solution for this or at least a workaround? I'm struggling to find a solution but I can't understand what the problem could be.

Answer 1

Today, I got the same error messages when testing my app with Android 6.0 on a Nexus 6 (Motorola). I solved my issue by checking the targetSDKVersion in the manifest file. Using "22" and not "23" as targetSDKVersion solved it. (See below)

<uses-sdk         android:minSdkVersion="15"         android:targetSdkVersion="22" /> 

I also checked the build.gradle files for compile version and targetSDKversion:

compileSdkVersion 22     buildToolsVersion '22.0.1'      defaultConfig {         minSdkVersion 15         targetSdkVersion 22     } 

Hope this will help you. However, this is just a short term workaround for now, I hope that we will get some feedback from metaio though.
