Execution failed for task ':app:transformDexArchiveWithDexMergerForDebug', build failed

Your Environment

• Plugin version:
• Platform: Android
• OS version: Android 9
• Device manufacturer and model: Asus Zenfone Max M1
• Running in Simulator: No
• React Native version: 0.59
• Plugin configuration options: -
• Link to your project: -

Context

Should build when linking manually...

Expected Behavior

Application should build

Actual Behavior

Build fails with the error joined in debug logs.

Possible Fix

No idea... but i specified the following in build.gradle :

ext { googlePlayServicesLocationVersion = "16.0.0" buildToolsVersion = "28.0.3" minSdkVersion = 16 compileSdkVersion = 28 targetSdkVersion = 28 supportLibVersion = "28.0.0" }

and it still doesn't work.

Steps to Reproduce

1.npm install react-native @mauron85/react-native-background-geolocation
2. link manually (auto fails as described in this issue #364)
3. react-native run-android

Context

Can't build...

Found any solution?

[ziponia]

In my case,

android/app/build.gradle

android {
  ...other config....
  defaultConfig {
    ...other config....
    multiDexEnabled true // <-- here
  }
}

multiDexEnabled solved by adding true

[gitsebs]

I have tried multiDexEnable but no success

Getting the following error:

I managed to fix the problem above using the pull request below using patch-package

mauron85/background-geolocation-android#31

Seems to be a dependency conflict with expo's unimodules from what I understand

this worked for me too, thanx

[tmaly1980]

These didn't help me. Any other options? My issue is specifically with com.iodine.start.ArrayUtil, not the org.apache.commons.io . I already have multiDex enabled.

[tmaly1980]

OK mine failed because I had this listed in app/build.gradle's dependencies:

implementation project(':@mauron85_react-native-background-geolocation')

Turns out it was already being imported implicitly through the newer RN autolinking:

apply from: file("../../node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android/native_modules.gradle"); applyNativeModulesAppBuildGradle(project)

I just commented "implementation" out and it compiles now.
