When I open My any Project in Android Studio The main problem is in setContentView(R.layout.activity_main). Here showing error of R. When I use Rebuild Project the Problem is solved, but when I Run the project the same problem is appeared in the run time.
Try the following:
I find that R class not found related issues are usually because of errors in the xml resources(layouts, drawables, etc). Fix them and then try running.
Sync gradle manually: cmd+shift+a and search for gradle sync. Fix any errors that may popup.
Invalidate caches and restart Android Studio.
"The project cannot be built
until its prerequisite upomp_Res is built. Cleaning and building all
projects is recommended"
When I build an android project as usual, an error occurred as above.
Follow that infomation ,i cleaned my 'upomp_Res ' project and then cleaned my main project for several times and the error still remains,and I reopend the project ,and even reopend my eclipse,it dosen't help,the error remains.
How to solve this?
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Even you cleared your 'Upomp_Res' Project , Eclipse will keep Launch configuration for that project. You need to Navigate Run->Run Configuration . Under Android Application right click on 'Upomp_Res' and click remove
I have an Android project for which I use the Eclipse IDE and I wanted to try an use the ProGuard tool to obfuscate/shrink my code. Unfortunately I couldn't get it to work with Eclipse throwing up a ProGuard error when I try to export my project.
To resolve this I altered the necessary project properties file to NOT use ProGuard but Eclipse just complained there were errors with the project which needed to be resolved. I tried cleaning the project, refreshing too but all to no avail. As I use a Mercurial for source control I reverted to my last good sources but now Eclipse throws up even more errors which I cannot get rid of:
org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.ResourceException: Resource is out
of sync with the file system: '/XXXXX/AndroidManifest.xml'.
loadAndParseRClass: failed to find manifest package for project
XXXXXXX
I've never been a great fan of Eclipse but how can I clean my project and get it back to a NON proguard state?
I resolved the problem. There's ANOTHER error log in Eclipse called 'Problems' which tells me my Debug certificate has expired on 25/12/2011. Handy how Eclipse labels this as a 'problem' and not an error and gives no indocation other that a red x that there's some sort of problem!
Anyway I resolved this by going here.
Make sure you Refresh your project so that the state of your Workspace/IDE agrees with your state on disk (Right click on the project and select "Refresh"). This will get rid of the first error you have.
And then just do a Team -> Revert on your projects and select the files that you have changed and want to revert to the checked-in version.
I am developing a simple Android application. But when I run Eclipse, it shows the following error:
Your project contains error(s), please fix it before running it.
I can't find any error in my project or there is no error in my application.
There is a red cross under the application name but it is not under another file name.
Does anyone else have this issue?
That usually comes from errors in the build path.
If you're using eclipse, there is a view you can add that lists all the errors called "Problems":
Otherwise, you can try to clean the project, and that usually solves a few problems.
Finally, if you add or alter resources from outside your IDE, you'll want to reload the resources and clean.

This can also be caused by an out of date "Debug Certificate" fixed as follows:
IF ALL FAILS THEN THIS GOTTA BE THE SOLUTION:
Delete your debug certificate under ~/.android/debug.keystore (on Linux and Mac OS X); the directory is something like %USERPROFILE%/.androidon Windows.
The Eclipse plugin should then generate a new certificate when you next try to build a debug package. You may need to clean and then build to generate the certificate.
This is also another fix for the "setContentView(R.layout.main);" error that says it cannot find R.layout.main when it is actually generated. (R cannot be resolved to a variable).
This is also another fix for the error "Your project has errors..." and you cannot find any.
Clean and rebuild are still necessary after generating a new debug certificate.
First go to Window -> Show View -> Error Logs in menu. It will display error logs if you have any. Then try to clean the project and build it again.
Well, in my case some libraries were addressed twice in the:
Project >> Properties >> Java Build Path >> Libraries
I just had to remove the duplicate and it worked fine without any cleanings or refreshing.
I saw this with an existing project. I had made a few edits, but hadn't imported anything new. Restarting Eclipse didn't help.
Project->Clean did solve the problem.
I come across this error often when I import a new project in my workspace.
Reason: Some necessary files (Like R.Java) is not generated in its respective packages.
Cure: Clean and build projects, All the files that needs to be auto generated will be there on place after building the project.
Best Luck.
This is happened to me. After format of my system,
When i import project it shows same error
remove first debug.keystore file then goto -
Project -> Project properties -> select library -> remove -> add again libraries.
It's working for me......
Go to projects menu, click on clean menu item.
After that close the eclipse and reopen and try compiling..
It is software glitch you find some times.
it can also happen if you move required files. Simply check Problems View (menu window -> show view -> Problems) as told here
I had this exact same problem. One solution that would work would be to create a brand new project, but I don't think there's any need for that. For me the problem was that the debug certificate that gets auto-generated had expired. Deleting this file allowed Eclipse to rebuild that file, which solved the problem. You can't run an app with an invalid certificate, whether it be a debug or release certificate. Note that cleaning my project did not work. For more information, see:
"Debug certificate expired" error in Eclipse Android plugins
Recently I came across this error. I was really in a corner with no help, then I figured it out. This error can occur for the following reasons:
An error in the project code
Improper linking of external library files to the project
Most important: if your debug.keystore file is expired.
The first 2 cases are easily identifiable but the third one is like searching a black box in a dark room.
So in addition to Project -> Clean, remove your debug.keystore file also.
I am using Mac + Eclipse so to remove, I wrote the command rm ~/.android/.debug.keystore in a terminal.
Is there a way to ignore existing errors in project. Something similar what eclipse allows in case of java projects.
In my case the errors exist in jni directory. The errors are shown even though ndk-buid succeeds. So all i want to do is to ignore the errors reported by eclipse.
If the errors are indeed errors then i should get unresolved symbols during ndk-build.
I have ensured standard android includes are there in include path.
Also my project is of type android/c/c++.
I have two builders associated with the project
1. statndard android builder
2. custom ndk builder that ive explicitly created.
Simulate your self some error in class. Then save it and it would show more errors than you simulated. For me it was incorrect import and this helped.
I have had a similar problem.
Under "problems" tab I have found an error saying "Error generating final archive: Debug Certificate expired on 2/22/12 1:49 PM"
So my advice is to look in the problems tab to get some more info.
Bye
If none of the above solution work, you should check the READ ONLY property of the Project folder, if it is Read-Only, the compiler will not be able to overwrite the resources, R.java and other dex APK etc files and hence this will occur..
This happened to me and I fixed after a long struggle..
Happy Programming.
For some reason eclipse only showed a ! error on root and didn't specified what error it was.
Go in Windows -> Show Views -> Problems. You might find all previous errors there, delete them, do a clean build and build again. You'll see the exact errors.
Eclipse shows an error on android project but can find the error
I had this exact problem when trying to run the Doodlz app, from the book Android for Programmers, on Mac OS X with Eclipse Juno.
After downloading and unzipping the demos from the book, I forgot to change the permission of the files. They were read-only on my system so this was the first issue.
The second issue was solved by selecting a build target on Eclipse. This was fixed by going to: Project > Properties , and clicking the Android field on the left panel to be able to select one option as the Project Build Target, which in my case was:
Target Name Vendor Platform API Level
> Google APIs Google Inc. 4.0.3 15
Then cleaning and rebuilding the project showed no errors.
Finally, to run the app right-click the package (at the Package Explorer tab) and then select:
Run As > Android Application
Simply Deleted my debug certificate under ~/.android/debug.keystore and Project->Clean did solve the problem.
Delete the .android folder from your Documents&settings\User\ on XP and \User\ on Win7. Recreate the AVD again and create a new project.
What caused this problem for me was none of the above, but simply that I'd left the "debuggable" attribute to false in the manifest.xml file after doing a release. D'oh!
Of course neither the LogCat, Error log, Console, or Problems window alerted me to this..
I had the same error, when I copied a project to another computer.
I then checked all properties of the project on both machines, and the only thing that was different was the order of items in Java Build Path - tab Order and Export.
I moved the items Android X.X.X and Android Dependencies above the other 2 in the list (in my case, src and gen folders) and voila, it worked again!
I'm not really sure if the different order was actually the problem, but at least changing it (and saving the properties again) seemed to help...
I had the exact same problem after updating the SDK and ADT.
My issue was resolved by deleting the .android folder (hidden) under C:\Users\USERNAME\
This happened to me when I was experimenting with Maven.
Right click project -> Maven -> disable maven nature
corrected the problem for me.
Yes, this is a rather cryptic message. If you've got a faulty project (say one you've been working on in the past) then you'll get this message (and no messages in your current project's Problems / Error Log panes).
You may just want to run your current project. This may be perfectly fine. Just click on the down arrow to the right of the Run button to select your project.
Try changing your workspace. I am not sure this is the exact solution . I did face the same issue for sometime untill i changed my workspace.
In my case, it happens with ADT 22.
I choose not to create Activity.
After I remove the "appcompat_v7" as library project. I works.
I had similar problem where I couldn't run my project yet didn't see any problems in the code. In Error Log panel it said something like "Cannot add P/ to the list of segments P/ in as a parent".
Restarting Eclipse solved the problem.
I have a problem I can't seem to get around. I've created a project in Eclipse (I recreated it from another project that I thought was corrupted). There are no visible errors in any of the files, including the .xml files. However, the project root [project name] itself has an error (red 'x') and so I can't run it.
On a side note, in the default properties file the line:
target=android-4 is underlined in red with the note that 'android' is not spelled correctly. I have not altered this file since it was generated.
Any clues? Target is 1.6, sdk 4. And I'm new at this :)
You may have already tried this unsuccessfully, but if not, you might want to try the Android Tools > Fix Project Properties action from the context menu of the project root.
Eclipse also thinks android-4 is misspelled in my default.properties, so I doubt that is the cause of your build problem.
Does the Problems view describe any issues? (Window->Show View->Problems)
You could also try cleaning the project in eclipse. Project->Clean..
if the error message you get is
The project cannot be built until the build path errors are resolved.
this might help:
Open the Project -> Properties
Select Java Build Path -> Libraries
Add any new library (to be deleted later) -> OK
Wait for the workspace to refresh or force a refresh
The error should go away
Remove the dummy library
You can stop the spelling error by adding that word to a user dictionary, but a spelling error wouldn't prevent a run.
