Build times much longer after Corona become "totally FREE"?

If you don’t get this straightened out, you might try to get someone in another locale to build  your app to see if it builds faster or the same for them.  This will give you more info in the quest to speed up the builds.

Thanks for pointing that out Rob.  Honestly, I didn’t really pay much attention about that (google.play) plugin, it’s just always there as I copy build.settings from one project to another, I thought it’s one of those defaults, what a shame :slight_smile:   I even had it in my first ever  simplistic/minimalist game I published last year  ( ThruBlu )  and didn’t even bother thinking it had nothing to do with it  :)   

Yes, I used Admob on that game when it was free, but later moved to Appodeal. 

So right now I was just trying to build the sample ‘Hello World’ as suggested and guess what … I’m still waiting after 30+ minutes now, I’d guess this will end up in a timeout.  :(  

I will try that regedit you suggested tomorrow and will update you (quite late here now, gotta hit the sack for a big day). 

As always, thanks for the support.

@roaminggamer, that’s good idea too…  Thanks!

#44

Did you ever try the regedit addition to get more log information?

Builds should not be behaving like this, but it may also be isolated to you since there are few complaints about it.

Yes sir I did… early this morning I am lucky I am getting  5~7 minute builds…  last night were all timed out.  

Below is a portion of the console “successful” build info… 418 seconds.

What will be most helpful is to copy/paste the entire console log window.  There should be time stamps in there which are important. Please don’t delete anything.

Thanks

Rob

As this is a hit and miss affair for me, will do next time I hit the same problem.  

Thanks Rob.

Hi Rob,

Below is a full console entry when as usual, I get build error #5…

Thanks. Were there timestamps on each line that you might have stripped off? 

We will look into the cause of this.

Rob

#51

Hi Rob,

That log is untouched.  100% cut n pasted.

Santi

#52

So basically once our build is complete, we pass a URL to a file on Amazon S3 that then gets downloaded. This is where you’re timing out. It appears to be a connectivity issue to Amazon S3.

You can look for this in your build log:

WebServices: download request: https://ansca-build-temp.s3.amazonaws.com/59b00908cf945-built.zip?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIMSD7JG23DSGPRIA&Expires=1504708927&Signature=zczFoIOOF3Yya6X6JcnH1Pb4lIk%3D

And grab that URL (starting with https://) and copy/paste that to a web browser and see what information you get. The build won’t last long (you should have a few minutes). 

Rob

#53

Thanks Rob!

Will check that out.

In the meantime, I notice my luck is in the wee hours between 3-4am my time, that’s when the build completes 3 out of 4 but usually takes between 7-10minutes.   

Santi

Hi guys,

Good news.  

I don’t know what happened, nothing on my part has been done, but since the other day, my build times have been consistently less than a minute fast!!  Even much faster than what I call normal at 3-5minutes.  Whoohooo!!  I hope it stays that way, so I don’t have to wake up at 3-5am just to build the app   :stuck_out_tongue:

Now, back on my dev work…     :wink:

#55

That’s great to know!

Rob
