Instant Apps - Error: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Processing command completed with nonzero exit value 1

Question

I'm trying to create my first instant application that was introduced in Google IO 2017. I downloaded the Google Instant Apps SDK and set it minSDKVersionto 23

I created the first project, and I encountered errors when trying to create it. Does anyone who also faces the same bugs for creating instant applications? Is this due to some error during the assembly process from them?

Answer 3

3.1 Canary2 , Instant Installed. , adb . Canary6, Gradle. 06. , : "qemu-system-i386.exe ". V6.2.1 Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator. ?

I worked with the Topeka sample code and thought there might be some inconsistency with all version updates. So I returned a copy of my project. But now that the installation of the application has completed with "Failed to access the package manager ... delete it?"

A few more attempts and found that the (only) activity is not available. As soon as I changed the name of the directory in the path that remained after creating this test copy of the project, Gradle, the APK is loaded, and everything is correct.

Phew! Hope this helps others.
