Says solved, but i don't see a solution!

I got the same errors, HELP!

https://github.com/facebook/facebook-sdk-for-unity/issues/386
https://forum.unity.com/threads/cant-build-with-multidex-enabled.773348/


For anyone looking for solution.
You have to move your
implementation 'androidx.multidex:multidex:2.0.1'
and
multiDexEnabled true
from mainTemplate.gradle to launcherTemplate.gradle and it should work.

You should activate these files first here in the Project Setting->Player->Publishing Settings


I solved it in two steps for Unity 2019.3.11f1:

1. Go to Edit->Project Settings->Player->Publishing settings->Tick Custom Properties Gradle Template
2. Go to the newly generated gradleTemplate.properties and add these lines to the top:

android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true

 

You will get the same error oddly if the password on the keystone file is incorrect... So do check that...

 

Thanks for pointing me out. This was the case for me.

 

Thank you very much, you saved me

this was the case of me
I had to move those lines from mainTemplate.gradle to launcherTemplate.gradle

 

This was my case as well.
The error message is extremely misleading.

 

Thank you, I've wasted half an hour on this error, bumping it for others to see, it was a typo in keystore password for me as well

 

thank you sir it solved my issue custom gradle properties was the issue

 

I found a solution! It's all about the wrong password in key.store

I also suffered for many days, but the solution turned out to be simple

 

Also check this workaround (Maybe this is caused by an incompatibility between Android Build Tools version 31.0.0 and the Unity build system)
https://developers.google.com/ar/develop/unity-arf/android-12-build#workaround

 

Thanks. This solved my problem.

 

I faced with this problem in 2020.3.16f1 unity version ,

When I upgraded my facebook sdk to 11.0.0 version , I successfully built my ios project but couldn't build on android.
I tried various solutions which are in unity forums or etc.

I solved like that ,
-Close the unity
-Delete temp folder under your project folder
-Delete Facebook sdk and facebook sdk meta folder
-Open Unity , If you face some errors in launchining to unity let ignore them.
-Import facebook sdk unity package.
-Enter the facebook sdk settings values
-You are good to go

 

This was the case for me as well.

 

I solved this issue deleting my lybraries folder (from my game project folder) and also deleting the resolve plugin>android folder. At least i can build with these deleats but i dont know if is enought to publish an android game in google play store

 

I'm just clicked here and fixed.

 

Deleting my Library folder fixed it for me as well

 

I just now had this problem with a pair of new test scenes w/ Unity 2020.3.30f1.

I'm not 100% certain this isn't "voodoo computing" but my problem for both scenes was that I wasn't connected to the Internet for their first Android builds.

I hooked up to the 'Net prior to building each after several Gradle fails with each, and after a bit longer of a wait on "Building Gradle Project", each in turn built fine -- even after disconnecting my workstation from the network.

 

In my case, I don't know why but I just think that my computer dont have any anti-virus programs cause the issue, then after I installed one, I successfully built it! DAMM

 

I had same problem, it was because I did not have a project keystore created/used.

 

Okay so how I solved the issue was to go to project settings, other options and set the android API to a minimum of API 30. Basically, the latest right now is Android 13. Don't bother setting an API to something really old. Set the range from minimum to target to as close as Android 13 as possible. Set your project keys. Build. It may ask you to upgrade your Android SDK, if so, say yes. It should build correct from here on.
