Build Error caused by Admob plugin

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I tried building an app both last night and today for iOS and I get the following build error:

BuildID: 555c81054aab4 

Error: Get plugin failed. 

Publisher: com.coronalabs 

Plugin: CoronaProvider.ads.admob

It then asks me if I’m connected to the internet and I am certain I am… for example I can make this post. Also, I build from this machine all the time and it just started messing up yesterday.

If I remove the plugin from build.settings, it builds fine even though there are several other plugins in the app, so the problem is related to the admob plugin specifically.

The only external factor I am aware of is that I upgraded my Xcode to 6.3.2 yesterday.

I am using Corona public build 2014.2511

Please advise.

Thank you for the reply. Sorry for repeating a post, I did a search for Admob Build Error and that post didn’t come up.

The Admob link on this page still goes to the old page: https://docs.coronalabs.com/api/library/ads/index.html

Also, do you know if “Google Play services” plugin supports admob on iPhone? It seems like it would and the old plugin did.

We removed the AdMob V1 plugin yesterday.  It hasn’t worked since August and others were getting build errors.   You need to be using the AdMob V2 plugin which does work and shouldn’t generate build errors.

It does work on iOS.
