Android build error with ArCore

I've been trying to build my project to a gradle build but I'm continuing to get this error.


I came across this forum with a similar issue (https://forum.unity.com/threads/problem-when-building-for-android.545594/) . The answer proposed (deleting core-1.1.4.arr) allows the project to build however the ARCore functionality isn't present. I've reinstalled ARCore/ARFoundation from the package manage with no luck as well.

Here's there error:

CommandInvokationFailure: Gradle build failed.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

 

i am facing the same problem also
if you find the solution can you post it please

 

Hey, same problem here. I've been trying to fix it for the last 24h and it's beginning to eat away at my soul! Did either of you ever fix it? Please, it would be fab to know the answer if you did.

 

If you have vuforia installed as well, remove it. I guess the two can't work together in harmony
