Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR

Re: Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR
Sorry I posted the above as it appears this subject presumed one knew all the setting up details such as 'Preferences/Mobile Support' which I had not done.
I'm now as far as 'Installing app on target device...' and will research further as to why I don't actually see my App.
Regards,
Ruth

Re: Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR
I'm having the exact same "could not app for testing: unable to generate package manifest" error when attempting to test the device on both android simulator and on an android device. Changing the version number in standalone app settings didn't help either.
I've tried building the program on a mac (Yosemite) and PC (Windows 7). I'm using LiveCode Community version (LC7), Android studio 1.0.2, Java JDK version 7.
Any help or updates on this would be much appreciated!

Hi All,
Please make sure you are using the latest version of LiveCode (7.0.1) as there have been various Android SDK fixes implemented. The easiest place to download this version is from our main downloads repository here-
http://downloads.livecode.com/livecode

Re: Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR
Thanks Neil for the quick reply. I was running version 7.0.0 and when I updated to 7.0.1 as you suggested and it worked. Thank you! I was able to test on the android device!

Re: Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR
Neil, I have to report that I'm stilling getting this on Ubuntu 14.04 using LC 7.0.1 and 6.7.1. My system is 64-bit - is there an undocumented requirement that I need to use the 32-bit Java build? What else might I be missing?
Also, FWIW, when the error dialog appears on Ubuntu it does so behind all other windows, which unfortunately happens with the confirmation dialog when a build is successful (see http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13888 ). Unless one is sufficiently familiar with LiveCode to be able to guess that's a window layering issue, to most folks it'll just appear as though the IDE is locked up, and they'll force-quit. But even for me, to have to move other windows out of the way to hunt down the error or confirmation dialog is a drag which I hope will be addressed soon.

Re: Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR
I'm starting to second guess my decision to spend $300 on an indy license and the create it course.. I up'd to 7.0.1 and get to "installing app on target device..." then nothing. After a few minutes the installing app message goes away and i get nothing on the emulator. There has to be a better way to make this stuff work.

Windows 7, tried testing on 2.2 and 2.3.3 emulators.
Re: Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR
HI All,
@ ForthWorld- I will try setting up the latest SDK on my Ubuntu VM asap and let you know how I get on. I beleive I'm currently running 32bit JDK 1.7.0_65 on my VM
@ FXTradeX6- Try using a newer AVD (e.g. 4.1) as we've had some reports of older simulators not launching apps as expected.
Kind Regards,
Neil Roger

Re: Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR
@ ForthWorld- It seems that this bug (or similar) is still present for LiveCode on Linux. I've set up the latest Android SDKS and use the following JDK version-
JAVA_VERSION="1.7.0_65"
OS_NAME="Linux"
OS_VERSION="2.6"
OS_ARCH="i586"
If possible, could you file a quick bug report with our QC team and we will investigate ASAP.

Re: Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR
I'm a Linux-only user (Ubuntu 14.04) and I've tried LCC from 6.6.2 - 7.0.1 and although I've discovered a number of bugs, this one doesn't sound familiar. Can I test a stack to help out perhaps?

Re: Unable to build app for testing - manifest ERROR
Thanks for the assist, Michel. Feel free to run the simple recipe in the bug report I linked to above (basically, just to to build anything, even a simple one-card app, for Android).
If you have success please let me know so we can figure out the difference between your setup and mine. I'm also using Ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop (my workstation is 14.10), so at least we have that as a common starting point.
