OK. I’m not sure right now what the reason for the failure is.

Back up your project.

Temporarily comment out the AdMob parts of build.settings. ID and plugin section.
Comment out any code in main.lua that launches subsequent actions. You can probably comment it all out.
Rebuild.

If that builds, then you’ve got something wrong with your adMob setup.

I can’t remember right now if all Corona/Solar2D plugins are by default activated or not. I think AdMob is activated by default… but I’d like to hear someone else weigh in on that.

Post back after trying to build as mentioned above.

aclementerodrguez · November 10, 2020, 7:56pm

Ok, I have commented the applicationChildElements table and the call to the admob plugin and he build was successfully created.

roaminggamer · November 10, 2020, 7:56pm

I’ll try rebuilding one of my projects that has AdMob using 2020.3621 later today and see what I get.

roaminggamer · November 10, 2020, 7:57pm

Sorry for the delay, but I’m at my day job.

agramonte · November 10, 2020, 8:04pm

I don’t believe Admob currently works. I believe it is on the list of todos for Vlads. Technically you can add either of the libraries that are missing to your corona.gradle file.
