Crash during compiling/building apks

[007Shreyas]

Dear modders and developers...........
Issue while compiling and building any app (apk) on latest version of Sketchware pro v 6.4.0 test build 03.
Detailed report: When 'Run' button is clicked, it apk is successfully compiled(java, dx, aligning already done successfully) but crashes as soon it is signing the apk.. Then Sketchware returns to Home Screen where projects are displayed. NO app is being able to be installed. NO ERROR LOG IS DISPLAYED . Please fix this bug ASAP.

Happened with me once but couldn't replicate or get any logs

@khaled-0 Do you have a solution for this?

Please don't mention any maintainers / contributors when opening an Issue. We can see you've opened one already, and mentioning only makes it more intrusive and annoying.

I'm guessing this is due to testkey.zip getting extracted to a new path, but some code still relying on the old path. Will have to investigate further.

Could you reproduce the issue and if the app crashes again, upload /Internal storage/.sketchware/debug.txt here?

[007Shreyas]

@JavkhlanK sorry to mention you all.. I just wanted that this issue to be fixed ASAP. And please wait let me try to upload the debug log file

debug.txt

Thanks. That confirms my guess, it's trying to use testkey's old file path.

I found out that installing e.g. Sketchware Pro v6.4.0-rc02 directly over v6.4.0-rc03, successfully building a project with it, and then installing v6.4.0-rc03 over it again works.

@JavkhlanK is this the only solution? Can't you fix it?

[JavkhlanK]

Could you please stop mentioning members already?

Anyway, I shared just a workaround for v6.4.0-rc03. The next build, v6.4.0-rc04, will have that bug fixed.

I just mentioned you.. I apologize.. Ok thanks... Please release the update soon.(very impatient) and excited for new updates.

And can you please tell me from where i can learn about Java and android development freely. I really want to learn them.. But cannot find a reliable source. I want to master Java for android development.. You are the expert, please advise me.

What I used is a combination of an IDE, some basic knowledge in using search engines, and many hours of reading stuff on e.g. https://developer.android.com or https://stackoverflow.com.

Keeping this open until it's fixed and released.
