Hi, cannot generate APK for several days now.
Testing with companion works ok.
Error message is as below:

Am I doing anything wrong?

Extensions used ? How big are your assets? How many screens ? Please provide more info

Extentions: DateTools, TaifunFTP, TaifunImage
Assets: 3 (png) images totaling 580K
Screens: 2 (main App on Screen1, setup parameters on screen config)

Second screen is just a setup screen that collects system parameters and store on Tiny_DB
Initially the App worked with fix parameters.
Sometime during the design of the config screen this problem started and I switched to test with the companion to complete the config screen.
The App works ok while testing with the companion but fails to compile.

Thanks

If you wish you can pm me your aia to check it

#5

Ok, thanks.
The App uses a couple of tokens and private ftp credencials I am unable to disclose.
Is it ok?

#6

Do not worry :slight_smile:

#7

If you wish delete keys

#8

I replaced private credentials as suggested.
removed aia by Mod beacause contained paid extension
Thanks

#9

I will check it

I found that removing the DateTools extension allows apk to compile with no errors. Updated extension to latest version 6.1 and still error occurs. I found this

Maybe the developer @vknow360 might help you

#11

The problem is that it is not possible use DateTools extension if you use FTP component or any FTP related extension (except FtpClient extension).

Hi, I used FtpExtension before but had to abandon it because it only works over WiFi and not via GSM.
Datetools I use exclusively because I need to know local timeZoneOffset.

Any way out of this?

#13

You mean GTM +2:00 for example?

#14

If yes maybe you could use clock component

Have a look at

Date and Time Patterns

Indeed removing DateTools extension and using Dora’s suggestion sorted out the problem.
It now compiles successfully.
Thanks you people for your time.
