Unable to compile - Error 256

Hello there,

I’ve recently posted this to StackOverflow, but I’m wondering if this is a better place to share.  https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46374854/unable-to-compile-android-app-error-256-in-corona

In short, I’m able to compile for iOS but unable to compile to Android for any target (Google Play, Amazon, etc), no matter what key I used (debug, a distritbution key I made, etc).

The error I get is quite generic; Error 256.

I have ensured I have all icons, including the notification icons in the root of my project, but still I’m unable to build. 

I welcome any help.

Thanks

mgriffiths - did you ever solve this?  I am getting the same error and cannot figure it out.  Any guidance much appreciated.

The forums are by far the best place to ask this question.

Can you post your entire console log from your build session?

What version of Corona are you using?

Are you building on a Mac or Windows?
