Firebase Crashes doesn't show in Firebase Console at all

The app I am developing is linked to a project in Firebase Console. I have included 'google-services.json' under the 'app' folder too.

My Top Level build.gradle is:

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0'
    classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.0.0'
}

My App Level build.gradle is:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crash:9.8.0'
}

apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

I know that latest 'firebase-crash' is 10.0.1 which requires an updated Google Repository and Google Play Services. However, I am able to use same firebase-crash on another app I am making. I am a little short on internet pack, i can't update yet.

I use following snippet in onCreate() of MainActivity to cause a test crash:

FirebaseCrash.log(TAG + ": Test Log"));
FirebaseCrash.report(new Exception("Test Exception"));

I checked 'google-services.json' too for correct mobile_sdk_id, it matches perfectly. My package name matches with firebase project too.

I don't do anything with Firebase Analytics.

Following is logcat output:

Its been 5 hours since i am trying to see Errors on Firebase Console. I have tried opening and closing my app for more than 20 times.

How do i know FirebaseCrash has been enabled? When will Errors show up in console? Am i doing something wrong?

Edit:

  1. There is no V/FirebaseCrash: message in logcat.

  2. Following does not appear in logcat:

    FirebaseCrash.logcat(0, TAG, "Test Logcat 0");
FirebaseCrash.logcat(1, TAG, "Test Logcat 1");

  3. There are some lines printed by FirebaseCrash before debugger has attached:

    12-11 22:27:09.950 I/FirebaseCrash: FirebaseCrash reporting initialized com.google.android.gms.internal.zzbks@424d3e68
12-11 22:27:09.950 I/FirebaseInitProvider: FirebaseApp initialization successful

  4. Updated Firebase-Crash to 10.0.1 and other SDK tools. No change.

Solution

  • I am so ashamed to know that my laptop's date was one day late. As soon as i corrected the date, results started to show in console. My problem is solved now.
