[@nativescript/geolocation] unable to compile Android version as I get a `Execution failed for task ':app:checkDebugDuplicateClasses'.`

[daniele-andriani-io]

Hi,

I've been using this in a project and now I am unable to compile this same project for Android. I've tried creating a brand new project to identify the problem and it seems to be linked to this dependency as as soon as I add it I get the following error while running tns run android:

I might have missed something and would highly appreciate any help on this subject.

This looks like a kotlin version conflict thing. You can do the following steps to solve this.

1. Enable kotlin using useKotlin configuration
2. Set kotlin version to a newer one

For these, you will need two new gradle files in App_Resources/Android as described here:
https://docs.nativescript.org/guide/native-code/android#enable-kotlin

Lovely!

I added those two respectively and it worked like a charm! Thanks

Your error mentions dex so in your case, there might also be the need to enable multidex.
In your app.gradle, ensure multiDexEnabled is set in android.defaultConfig.

android {
  defaultConfig {
    ...
    multiDexEnabled true
  }
}

Thanks, I've found that. It must be a problem in my project because a project from scratch with the same dependencies will build. Sooo back to selecting files until I find what is wrong 😓

@CatchABus created app from scratch, added link to library @nativescript/geolocation, made all changes described in the link:
https://docs.nativescript.org/guide/native-code/android#enable-kotlin

Building release version of the app

ns build android --bundle --release --key-store-path "path" --key-store-password pwd --key-store-alias alias --key-store-alias-password password --env.uglify --env.aot

produces such logs, but .apk file created:

Last version that works without problems and other actions is 21.0.1:

project.ext { googlePlayServicesVersion = "21.0.1" }

It's as if your kotlin version set is disregarded. NativeScript android runtime uses 1.7.1 by default but can be overridden by setting kotlinVersion in your gradle files.
This is how it's done in runtime: https://github.com/NativeScript/android/blob/main/test-app/build.gradle#L135
I suggest ensuring steps for setting kotlin version are followed properly and hitting ns clean and build again.
If problem persists, feel free to ask help in discord channel.

By the way, this is Google being Google. More people had this problem with newer play-services versions and this one had a problem with location specifically: https://www.reddit.com/r/flutterhelp/comments/17pzika/comment/k9j2tc3/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

@CatchABus if i would do anything wrong, my debug run would not be ok. That logs (above) are appearing only for release build.

1. My debug run is OK
2. My release build is not OK

And I assume that the best recommendation for now is to use 21.0.1 version of the googlePlayServicesVersion in project.ext values.

But again, if I create a project from scratch with the same dependencies, it compiles. So I'm wondering if there is something else in my code generating this error.

But again, if I create a project from scratch with the same dependencies, it compiles. So I'm wondering if there is something else in my code generating this error.

Hello, I solved this by downgrading NS_DEFAULT_ANDROID_BUILD_TOOLS_VERSION to NS_DEFAULT_ANDROID_BUILD_TOOLS_VERSION=7.3.0 in my gradle.properties

@Ot92 many thanks, that helped a lot!

Also in my case I've had other issues with a One of RECEIVER_EXPORTED or RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED should be specified when a receiver isn't being registered exclusively for system broadcasts error, which I've resolved by adding a targetSdkVersion 30 to my App_Resources/Android/app.gradle file.
