HAT installation issue: build the companion app error

[Former Member]

Hello!

I have installed Hybrid App Toolkit 1.7.2 successfully a couple of weeks ago. Now there is a new version of HAT 1.8.2 available and I am trying to install this latest version. All the prerequisites are met like before .

However , here comes the problem when buliding the companion app, the error log is attached below. It says

* Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

the log contains message as below. it seems that the problem has something to do with this ":dexDebug" file.

* What went wrong:

Execution failed for task ':dexDebug'.

Hello,

I had exactly the same problem. For me the error was that I had to update the Kapsel CLI tools (although that is/was not directly mentioned in the error). After I updated the Kapsel CLI tools it worked for me.

In the installation guide it is described under e.g. chapter 3.1.1 (npm install -g <your kapsel home>/KapselSDK/cli).

Best Regards,

Florian

Hello Florian!

I looked into the new installation guide of version 1.8.2 and noticed that the Kapsel  Support Packages required is 3.0 SP09PL04, while it is 3.0 SP09PL01 in previous guide of version 1.7.2.

So this might be the problem, I am downloading the new packages and will try again.

I will let you know if it works! thank you for your kind help!

Hi Florian!

I am delighted to tell you that the problem is solved by upgrading Kapsel as you said.

Thank you again!
