Bug Building Library\Bee\artifacts\Android\ManagedStripped failed with output

Hey, after 2,5 years i wanted to update an Android project of mine, sadly there were many errors and now i have encountered an error i am not able to fix.

Previously i update my project from version 2019.3.7f1 to 2022.1.23f1 and i updated my GoggleMobileAds Plugin and downloaded an sdk Version that supported an API-Level of 31. I get the error when builing the project.

I have really no idea how to fix this, so any help is appreciated!

@Tomas1856
I have a similar problem. It re-appeared in Unity 2022.2.2f1. There was no problem in version 2022.2.1, nor 2022.2.0, nor in betas 2022.2.0b1 - 2022.2.0b16. So something must have been changed in the update 2022.2.2f1. Try downloading GoogleMobileAds and building it and you'll see it for yourself.

 

In case anyone else stumbles across this, I found a fix for it as described here https://forum.unity.com/threads/bui...-to-target-api-level-31.1337957/#post-8639169

 

Are you sure that's all? It's not removing that error for me.

I removed any of the Google file with IOS in the filename, and that one error is still there.

 

Along with the different Unity version as mentioned in my other post, that's all I needed to do to fix it for me.

 

Yeah, will just repeat my response from the other post, so anyone who looks here can see it. Upgrading to the latest version fixes it.

 

My solution:

Project Settings > Player > Other Settings > Configuration > C++ Compiler Configuration
Changed "Master" to "Release"

DONE!
(Unity Editor version: 2021.3.30f1)


I found the solution to the problem here.
