Bug Issue with the Ironsource demo project

When I go to build the IronSource DemoScene on a device, so I can test ads. I get a failed build due to the below
It looks to me it is searching for this dependency here :

https://android-sdk.is.com/ 

I cant access that repo, so I'm not sure if its down, I need to request access or the dependency does not exist under that artifact name .

I have found an alternative here:

https://maven.google.com/web/index.html?q=ironsource#com.google.ads.mediation:ironsource:7.2.6.0

But changing the Ironsourcesdkdependencies.xml or the mainTemplate.gradle does not work as I think there is other stuff going on forcing it to look in the other repo.

Questions are:
Do I need access or does the dependency exist?
Is there something else wrong with my setup , Ive turned on all of these files to resolve another issue

Code (CSharp):

1.  What went wrong:
2. Execution failed for task ':launcher:checkDebugDuplicateClasses'.
3. > Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':launcher:debugRuntimeClasspath'.
4.   The project declares repositories, effectively ignoring the repositories you have declared in the settings.
5.   You can figure out how project repositories are declared by configuring your build to fail on project repositories.
6.   See https://docs.gradle.org/7.2/userguide/declaring_repositories.html#sub:fail_build_on_project_repositories for details.
7.    > Could not find com.ironsource.sdk:mediationsdk:7.2.6.
8.      Searched in the following locations:

1. I'm only building via unity, in other words I am using unity build and run option in build settings


2. This is what that folder looks like that contains my android files, not sure is this ok?


3. I uploaded a text file version of mainTemplate.gradle as I had an issue when I uploaded the actual file
4. My unity version is 2022.2.2 and I am building on Windows but trying to deploy my app to a phone

5. How do you want me to deliver the game? the only scene I am trying to load to my phone is the Ironsource sample scene

 

I think your problem is something else, you have multiple mediation sdk libraries in your project. You have aar library in your plugins and you also add the library using gradle dependency, even the gradle error suggest that this is the issue, your first error line is:

Try to remove every ironsource aar, jar and build again. This is the error you will usually get if you have multiple versions or copies of the same library.

 

I tried that, build and run and got the same error, unless there is somewhere else I should delete these jars from?

I followed this here , https://developers.is.com/ironsource-mobile/unity/unity-plugin/
The only thing I did different was install the a package called "Ads Mediation", but that was only because the android resolver does not get installed via the steps in the document above. I posted a question on another forum about that.

 

You could try to remove these repositories from your mainTemplate:

Jcenter is deprecated since March 2021 (https://developer.android.com/studio/build/jcenter-migration) and also you can see two jar files in the error message. If that doesn't help use the SDK from the documentation and download dependency manager here: https://github.com/googlesamples/unity-jar-resolver

 

This worked, my build succeeded and deployed to the phone. However, the scene that loads is just a blue screen.In the editor I see this.

While on my phone I see this


Im not seeing any errors in the logs and I only have this scene from the ironsourcedemo loading. Any ideas, Id expect to see some ads here or at least the same screen as editor?

 

Do you have the ironsource scene in your build settings? Check build settings, click on "Add Open Scenes" to add your scene and drag it to the top of the list. You can find more details here: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/BuildSettings.html

 

Yes I have it added, you can see on my second post a screen shot of my build settings and there are only two scenes. I've removed the other one now as well and I still see the blue screen?

 

I deleted my app on the phone rebuilt clean and that worked.
I clicked on one of the buttons and the ads did not load, I got this error in the logs. I suspect something needs to be set on the Ironsource side?
There I've created my app and copied my appkey into the code.
Ive added my android phone as a test device and entered the advertiser id from my google settings on my phone.
Ive enabled test mode.
Even after that when I click on the button for the banner and inertial ad, it does not work. I have enabled these ads on IronSource UI. I am now only using the iron source UI, I have not made any changes on the Unity Monetization UI, Im assuming I only use ironsource now?

Do you guys have any suggestions?

I see other people are having different issues as well with artifacts, is there a happy path you guys have tested on where a particular version of unity works with even the demo project? It does seem that unity apps are currently unable to be monetized with ads, I can create my project on any version, I just need to know what actually works?

 

I manually downloaded mediationsdk-7.2.7.aar, is there a way I can manually add this to my project? Will that solve my issue?

 

I just spent the evening trying to get the demo project working with these instructions
https://developers.is.com/ironsource-mobile/unity/unity-plugin/#step-1
These dont seem to be the complete steps, Im back to the error with

Code (CSharp):

1. Could not find com.ironsource.sdk:mediationsdk:7.2.7.

And commenting out the mavenlocal and jcenter repos are not fixing the issue this time.
Where should I expect these jars to be once fetched, are they wrapped up in

Code (CSharp):

1.  unityLibrary\libs\unity-classes.jar

or do they sit along side it here.

This is a new project with just the demo sample in it, its using the mobile 2d template from unity hub, I dont think these instructions are complete.

 

I solved this issue and got the Demo project working.
In order to do this I had to find my settings.gradle file as per here
https://docs.unity3d.com/2022.2/Documentation/Manual/android-gradle-overview.html

I then commented out the dependencyResolutionManagement section
I'm not sure why I need to do this, is it because the demoproject is fetching from a repo that my actual unity project ?
Is this an ok change to make, what would be the repercussions of this for example?

If this is correct or there is some other fix, I think it should be included in the docs as its not obvious from them ( at least to me, unless I've missed something, and that could happen!) that I should do this.

 

1. Does this work for you out of the box, these dont seem to be all the steps for me.
I had to add make changes to gradleTemplate.properties file, where the docs dosent call it out as something I need to even generate manually?

2. When you say blank project, are you using mobile template from unity hub?

3. These issue seem to be dependecy in nature,

Code (CSharp):

1. ee https://docs.gradle.org/7.2/userguide/declaring_repositories.html#sub:fail_build_on_project_repositories for details.
2.    > Could not find com.ironsource.sdk:mediationsdk:7.2.6.
3.      Searched in the following locations:
4.        - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/ironsource/sdk/mediationsdk/7.2.6/mediationsdk-7.2.6.pom
5.        - https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/com/ironsource/sdk/mediationsdk/7.2.6/mediationsdk-7.2.6.pom
6.        - file:/C:/unityProjects/test1/test2/unityLibrary/libs/mediationsdk-7.2.6.jar
7.        - file:/C:/unityProjects/test1/test2/unityLibrary/libs/mediationsdk.jar

Unless Im mistaken, those repos are been overwritten here by default

Code (CSharp):

1. dependencyResolutionManagement {
2.     repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.PREFER_SETTINGS)
3.     repositories {
4.         **ARTIFACTORYREPOSITORY**
5.         google()
6.         mavenCentral()
7.         flatDir {
8.             dirs "${project(':unityLibrary').projectDir}/libs"
9.         }
10.     }
11. }

What Ive done is commented that out, and I think that tells gradle to fetch from the
https://android-sdk.is.com/ repo, which as far as I can tell is not been searched in (at least according to the error message).

4. I wonder is there be some other global place that I may have made a change to unity where it would ignore project repositories for all projects I create?
Thanks for your help.

 

edit: I ditched Ironsource, too much problems, too low ecpm

I have the same bug is it still the recommended approach ?
