Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Colored'

Question

Today, I face the error mentioned in this post: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Borderless.Colored'

The funny thing (and the difference) is - our application is 5 months in production and we've made hundreds of builds and APKs so far. We didn't change a single line of code for a week (neither any of library version) and the build has suddenly stopped working with this mentioned error.

Execution failed for task ':react-native-fbsdk:processReleaseResources'

X:\app\node_modules\react-native-fbsdk\android\build\intermediates\res\merged\release\values-v24\values-v24.xml:3: AAPT: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Borderless.Colored'.

Using these versions of libraries (package.json):

...
"react": "15.3.2",
"react-native": "0.37.0",
...
"react-native-fbsdk": "~0.5.0",
...

Our build.gradle (not whole), which worked until now:

    compileSdkVersion 24
    buildToolsVersion '24.0.3'
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "xxx"
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 14
        versionName "1.5.3"
        ndk {
            abiFilters "armeabi-v7a", "x86"
        }
    }

dependencies {
    compile project(':react-native-device-info')
    compile project(':react-native-maps')
    compile project(':realm')
    compile project(':react-native-vector-icons')
    compile project(':react-native-image-picker')
    compile project(':react-native-fs')
    compile project(':react-native-share')
    compile project(':react-native-push-notification')
    compile project(':react-native-fbsdk')
    compile('com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:9.4.0') {
        force = true;
    }
    compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.facebook.react:react-native:+'
    compile 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-annotations:2.2.3'
    compile 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-core:2.2.3'
    compile 'com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind:2.2.3'
}

Any ideas please?

Answer 1

Finally I've found a solution. After reading all answers and related issues (Facebook Sdk Android Error Building) and trying many things (libs updating, dependencies, lots of version changes etc.) I managed to build my app again. Then I reverted all unnecessary changes and there's what was left:

I needed to add 2 things (iterator and line with "force") in my android/build.gradle file (not android/app/build.gradle):

allprojects {
    configurations.all {
       resolutionStrategy {
         eachDependency { DependencyResolveDetails details ->
           if (details.requested.group == 'com.facebook.react' && details.requested.name == 'react-native') {
             details.useVersion "0.37.0" // Your real React Native version here
           }
         }
         force 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.22.1'
       }
    }
}

Thanks for all the tips anyway!
