I'm using Android Studio, and for other projects, when I try to Generate a signed APK I get the app-release.apk file with any further trouble.
But in this particular project, I can only get an app-release-unaligned.apk file.
The main difference with my other projects is the use of the transloadit jar and org.apache.httpcomponents library for which I had to write down the packagingOptions field in my graddle file.
This is my build.grade file
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {
signingConfigs {
}
compileSdkVersion 22
buildToolsVersion "22.0.1"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.bambinotes.bambinotessnap"
minSdkVersion 16
targetSdkVersion 22
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
buildTypes {
release {
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
zipAlignEnabled true
}
}
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'

}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
compile('org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.3.6') {
exclude module: 'httpclient'
}
compile files('libs/transloadit-1.0.2.jar')

compile 'com.anupcowkur:reservoir:2.0'

compile 'com.mcxiaoke.volley:library:1.0.16'
compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient-android:4.3.5'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.2.0'
}
** UPDATE**
I've just found out what was the error that I was having, Android Studio was opening the finder in another folder, the one that generates the app-debug and app-release-unaligned files (which we can consider as intermediate files), the app-release.apk file was two folders up in the directory structure.
Even though I feel embarrassed for knowing the reason of my trouble, I'll leave this question open to see if this happens to anyone else in the future.
The app-release.apk file is in the application folder.
Sometimes Android studio shows another directory where the unaligned file is, so you just have to look for the newly created file.
You need to add the signing configuration to your Gradle file, see this answer for more information How to create a release signed apk file using Gradle?

any help is greatly appreciated. I have tried longer exclude options as well in other posts that I have found but that didn't help either.
You can try using pickFirst in packagingOptions. You need to get the correct package name of libogg.so from File1 or File2:
packagingOptions {
pickFirst 'com/library/name/lib/x86_64/libogg.so'
...
}
UPDATE:
There is a conflicted dependencies:
compile 'com.ibm.watson.developer_cloud:android-sdk:0.4.2'
compile 'com.ibm.watson.developer_cloud:java-sdk:3.9.1'
From the Watson Developer Cloud Java SDK documentation you can find the following:
The Android SDK utilizes the Java SDK while making some
Android-specific additions. This repository can be found here. It
depends on OkHttp and gson.
which is pointing to the first library. So, you should only use:
compile 'com.ibm.watson.developer_cloud:android-sdk:0.4.2'
I tried data binding and I need change build:gradle like this:

Like the error states you're trying to package the AUTHORS file from different jars; so you should just exclude it from being packaged.
packagingOptions {
exclude 'AUTHORS' // will not include AUTHORS file
}
You should merge your other packagingOptions files like this
packagingOptions {
exclude 'AUTHORS' // will not include AUTHORS file
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE' // will not include NOTICE file
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE' // will not include LICENSE file
// as noted by #Vishnuvathsan you may also need to include
// variations on the file name. It depends on your dependencies.
// Some other common variations on notice and license file names
exclude 'META-INF/notice'
exclude 'META-INF/notice.txt'

I want to use some Google services in my application, so I have added this line to the .gradle file: com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:8.7+. But after trying to sync the project I got this error:
Failed to resolve: com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:8.7+
I checked all the available answers on Stackoverflow. They suggest installing the sdk for Google repository and Google play services and I did that. Here is a screenshot of the sdks installed on my computer:
Here is the gradle file code:
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {

defaultConfig {

compile files ('libs/commons-math-2.2.jar')
compile files ('libs/commons-math-2.2-javadoc.jar')
compile files ('libs/commons-math-2.2-sources.jar')
}
I tried to remove the +, but that didn't solve it.
How can I solve the problem?
EDIT: As suggested by Stanojkovic and Gabriele Mariotti using 8.4 solves the problem, this is because I was mistakenly trying to use 8.7 which is not released yet. Thanks all.
Try with
com.google.android.gms:play-services-panorama:8.4.0
Your issue depends by
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.7+'
This version is not published yet (the apk is still in rollout, but the library is not public in the IDE)
Use the last stable release:
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.4.0'
I am using below 2 lib's in project
1. spring-core-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
2. spring-web-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
But android studio is considering duplicate entry for above lib's and giving error while packaging.
Error:duplicate files during packaging of APK E:\Code\iDoc\app\build\outputs\apk\app-debug-unaligned.apk
Path in archive: META-INF/license.txt
Origin 1: E:\Code\iDoc\app\libs\spring-core-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
Origin 2: E:\Code\iDoc\app\libs\spring-web-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
You can ignore those files in your build.gradle:
android {
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/license.txt'
}
}
------------------------------------------------------------
Anybody faced similar problem ?
Please suggest some-work around for this error.
Go to your build.gradle file and add the following line:
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/license.txt'
}
In my case I had to add like this one:
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
android {
compileSdkVersion 21
buildToolsVersion "21.1.2"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 21
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:+'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.87'
compile 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.5.2'
compile 'com.mcxiaoke.volley:library:1.0.15'
compile 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.2.4'
compile "org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:4.4.1"
compile "org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.3.6"
}
Note:
Meta-files doesn't affect any programmatic functions of application. Meta files basically contains Textual information like legal-notice, Licences etc of open sources libraries. Excluding it will not affect any thing.
When we use multiple 3rd party open source libraries, sometimes 2 or more projects has same named text files (Example: License.txt or Notice.txt or dependencies.txt). That causes the conflict during build time. In that moment our mighty android studio suggest us to exclude those conflicting meta files.
Important: When excluding the files note that it is case sensitive
I added this to my gradle and it was not working:
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
}
I was gettting error:
Duplicate files copied in APK META-INF/notice.txt
So the fix is to add META-INF/notice.txt :
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/notice.txt'
}
I have most simple solution for txt files. If you remove all txt files in the dependency.
Only add this block.
packagingOptions {
exclude '**/*.txt'
}
I got this error Duplicate files during packaging of APK app-debug-unaligned.apk when put 2 jar files :
httpclient-4.3.5.jar
httpmime-4.3.5.jar
into the libs folder after Sync with Gradle and Run.
If user 1 jar file - httpmime-4.3.5.jar, I will not get this error.
Please help me how to avoid this error & still can use 2 jar files in above also,
Thanks,
p/s : I use Android Studio version 0.8.6.

SOULITION I know good answer now by addding these lines will fix Duplicate files error :
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
exclude 'META-INF/notice.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/license.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/dependencies.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/LGPL2.1'
}
You can replace compile files('libs/httpmime-4.3.5.jar') with this compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:4.3.5'.
Also you are duplicating the dependencies compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs') already includes compile files('libs/httpmime-4.3.5.jar')
update your build.gradle and add the following lines
android{
.
.
.
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/license.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
exclude 'META-INF/notice.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
}
}
this will fix this error. I got the same error, doing this fixed it.
Please update this to your build.gradle file.
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
}
I updated gradle now it's working
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
}
add the below code to dependencies
compile group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents' , name: 'httpclient-android' , version: '4.3.5'
compile (group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents' , name: 'httpmime' , version: '4.3.5') {
exclude module: 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient'
}
now if you run that it will show you why it is telling duplicate may be because of META-INF/NOTICE, META-INF/LICENSE, add that first again run it may show other type.
add all like below under android section
packagingOptions {
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
}
definitely it will solve your problem.
remove all the dependancy file from the system before build.
