When build in android studio i get error :app:processDebugResources

When I run Build - rebuild project I get the following error
I have tryed many sollution but nothing works..
What went wrong:
the error build code:

The main issue is
resource drawable/appiconlarge not found
Please check the drawable/appiconlarge file exists or not. If not please add appiconlarge image on the drawable directory.
Hope this will solve your problem.

Consider doing this, not sure it would remove the error but it helped in my case.

Why android gradle task is starting before libs are built?

I am trying to fire up a task to copy the aar files (android libs) to a separate folder, but the task keeps getting triggered before the build starts.
I am using this answer but it does not work for me:
Is there a method in Gradle to execute some task after the build?
Here's my gradle:
def buildLibrary = true;
if (buildLibrary) {
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
} else {
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
}
apply plugin: 'io.fabric'
buildscript {
repositories {
maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
flatDir {
dirs 'libs' //this way we can find the .aar file in libs folder
}
}
dependencies {
classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.+'
}
}
repositories {
maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.3"
defaultConfig {
if (!buildLibrary) {
applicationId "myapp.com.mysdk"
}
minSdkVersion 17
targetSdkVersion 23
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
// Support libraries and widgets
compile 'com.android.support:support-v13:23.1.0'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.1.0'
compile 'com.android.support:gridlayout-v7:23.1.1'
}
// Why this keeps getting called before the build starts????
task copyAARToCommonLibs(type: Copy) {
println 'calling copyAARToCommonLibs before libs are built!!!'
from('../build/outputs/aar') {
include '*-release.arr'
}
into '../MyOutput/libs'
println 'end of calling!!!'
}
build.finalizedBy(copyAARToCommonLibs)
// This did not work either
tasks.build.doLast(){
println 'This is never called!!!'
}
and the output from a clean build:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 13.157 secs

The print statements that you added to copyAARToCommonLibs are misleading you. Based on their position in the task definition they are being executed at configuration time independently of any inter-task dependency order. This is why the prints appear before the build process occurs (as the configuration is not dependent on the task dependencies).
Here is a simple example:
task blahTask() {
println "Configuring finalizer"
doLast {
println "Actually running finalizer"
}
}
task toFinalize() {
println "Configuring to finalize"
doLast {
println "Actually running thing to finalize"
}
}
toFinalize.finalizedBy(blahTask)
When I execute toFinalize the output is:
Configuring finalizer
Configuring to finalize
:app:toFinalize
Actually running thing to finalize
:app:blahTask
Actually running finalizer
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
As you can see the finalizer's configuration code is actually executed before the configuration code for the task to be finalized (i.e. independent of task dependencies) whereas the doLast code is running in the desired order.
As such, using the print statements in the way you have is not actually giving an indication of when the copy task is running.
Another thing to realize is that in your output (from what you showed) there are no :app:copyAARToCommonLibs statements indicating that the task is not actually being run (it is being configured, hence the prints). According to the task docs a finalizer task will not run if the task being finalized (in your case build) was up to date. Quote:
On the other hand, finalizer tasks are not executed if the finalized task didn't do any work, for example if it is considered up to date or if a dependent task fails.

Android Studio ':app:mergeDebugResources' FAILED

I just installed Android Studio, made a project and when the project was building I got this error in the gardle console:

The only thing I did was change the
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
in the dependencies because it was giving me an error, after some google-ing I came to the conclusion that it was giving me an error because in the previous line I had a plus sign (+) for the version
EDIT: Here is my build.gardle
// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

Okay, so apparently the issue was caused by the fact that I was running a 64-bit Ubuntu OS and I needed some extra packages, so in case anyone wonders here is the mystical line solver of this situation:
sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6
I found the answer here, so props to the guy who answered it:

Not able to import apache HttpClient in Android 6.0 Marshmallow API 23 [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
org.apache.http.entity.FileEntity is deprecated in Android 6 (Marshmallow)

Closed 7 years ago.
I am having trouble in converting my simple project from buildtool version 19 to 23.... the app was running on 19 without any error.. i included all apache httpclient jar files from apache site n gave proper path too.. still don't know what's wrong. the reason m trying convert is m unable to include material components i.e. com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1 hence i have to upgrade buildtool version
this is build.gradle for project
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {

buildToolsVersion '23.0.2'
useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'

compile 'com.android.support:design:23.0.1'
}
this is build.gradle for module app

}
