Buildozer error while compiling for Android


I am trying to compile a Kivy app to an Android apk. I get the following error at the very end of the process. Can someone please advise? The buildozer on-screen debug log and buildozer spec files are attached for reference.

Please advise.

Following is the buildozer error log:

Error: ERROR: /home/neo/code/siva-android/v1.1/.buildozer/android/platform/build-armeabi-v7a/dists/SIVAv1.1__armeabi-v7a/gradlew failed!


Solution

  • I found the issue with help of a person on a Kivy forum. It was due to an incorrect specification of the package name in the Buildozer spec file. Special characters are not allowed.

    package.name: String, package name.
    
    The Package name is one word with only ASCII characters and/or numbers. It should not contain any special characters. For example, if your application is named Flat Jewels, the package name can be flatjewels.
