Bug Having trouble building for Android when migrating from Unity 2020 to 2021

Hi, I'm in the process of migrating from 2020.3.41f1 to 2021.3.18f1.

When I'm building locally for Android Unity emits this cryptic error message, even though the designated path is writable.

I'm on macOS Monterery 12.6.3 running on an Apple M1 Max MacBook Pro (2021).

This is the error message I'm getting:

Building Some/Path/Library/Bee/Android/Prj/IL2CPP/Gradle/build.gradle failed with output:
Failed because this command failed to write the following output files:

UnityEditor.BuildPipeline:BuildPlayer (UnityEditor.BuildPlayerOptions)

Notes:

1. Our CI builds the game for Android on an Ubuntu instance without a hiccup, I suspect this somehow related to the Apple Silicon version.
2. A simple build of a new project succeeds.


I tried cleaning the repo, checking out a worktree in a separate dir to no avail.
Did anyone experience this issue, any potential solutions?

Thanks beforehand.

 

Update:
This is the reason this had happened, unticking the checkbox resolved the issue.
