NDK is not installed

When building a flutter app, I get an error stating

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

However, the android NDK is installed.

Solution

  • I got that error on React Native 0.64 app on AppCenter build for Android. The solution is to go to android/app/build.gradle file and comment ndk { debugSymbolLevel 'FULL' } line if you have so (defaultConfig { ndk { debugSymbolLevel } })

    The solution was found by my colleague Jose, so all credits to him)
