Hi there,
Just now i’m trying to make an update for one of my games and i got this error in the console:

build settings? specifically the plugin section.

I have updated this game before. The unique change I made was the billing plugin.
This is my build.settings file:

settings =
{
splashScreen =
{
enable = false,
},

orientation =
{
	default = "portrait",
	supported = { "portrait", },
},

android =

  applicationChildElements =
  {
      [[
          <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
              android:value="myApplicationAppId"/>
      ]],
  },
  
  facebookAppId = "myFacebookAppId",
  
  versionCode = "23",

  googlePlayGamesAppId = "myGooglePlayGamesAppId",

It seems you have some connectivity issues. Try again…

Just now i tried and i got the same. I’m frustrated. I do not know why i can update my apps but not my games (the only difference is the billing and play games services plugins)

#6

I tried to replicate your issue and was not successful. @vlads is probably correct. The only part I couldn’t replicate was the json file since I wouldn’t have the same one you have. Probably will not work but could you try removing:

useGoogleServicesJson = true,

#7

Thank you agramonte. I commented that line but the issue persists. I think it is the network connectivity because here in my country it is to slow.

Well, the problem is the facebook plugin. I have commented the lines corresponding to this plugin in my build.settings file and the build is done. Anyone can say anything about that?

#9

Hi @vlads , could you tell me if this section of my build.settings file is ok: (the documentation does not have a good explanation about the applicationChildElements directive)

  facebookAppId = "MyFacebookAppId",
  
     applicationChildElements = {
      [[
          <provider android:authorities="com.facebook.app.FacebookContentProviderMyFacebookAppId"
              android:name="com.facebook.FacebookContentProvider" android:exported="true"/>
      ]],
  },
  
 -- for admob
  applicationChildElements =
  {
      [[
          <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
              android:value="myAppId"/> 
      ]],
  },

I am not sure what you are asking but this is what one of my apps looks like:

applicationChildElements =
        {
            [[
                <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
                    android:value="xxxxxxxxx"/> 
            ]],
            [[
                <meta-data android:name="com.tapjoy.appstore" android:value="Huawei"/>
            ]],
            [[
                <receiver android:name="com.tenjin.android.TenjinReferrerReceiver" android:exported="true">
                    <intent-filter>
                    <action android:name="com.android.vending.INSTALL_REFERRER"/>
                    </intent-filter>
                </receiver>
            ]]
        },
#11

Ok, I use admob and facebook plugins in my app, and both need to use the applicationChildElements directive, but i did not know how to implement it.

Thanks a lot!

#12

Glad I can help. Just stack them with commas in-between.

#13

Ok, according to your structure I made changes in my build.setting file but i could not make the build yet. Then i removed all lines related with facebook plugin and the build was ok.

my applicationChildElements directive:

applicationChildElements = {

      [[
          <provider android:authorities="com.facebook.app.FacebookContentProvidermyFacebookAppId"
                    android:name="com.facebook.FacebookContentProvider" android:exported="true"/>
      ]],
      [[
          <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID"
                     android:value="myAdmobAppId"/>  -- replace with your Admob app id. See: https://goo.gl/fQ2neu
      ]]
  },
#14

that looks correct

#15

Yes, but I could not make the build with the facebook plugin added

#16

I think i will make another post here with this.

Whatever goes into your manifest is public, no reason to censor it with placeholders
