Debug android manifest error

Different Ways to fix “Execution failed for task ‘:processDebugManifest’” in Android Studio

AndroidManifest.xml file is one of the most important files in your Android Project. This file handles all other files in your Android Studio Project and also provides apk name and app logo for the generated apk in Android. Many times while building an Android project our Manifest file gets overwritten. So we will get to see this kind of issue as Execution failed for task ‘:processDebugManifest” in Android Project. The error dialog is shown below:

So in this article, we will take a look at resolving this issue with 5 different methods.

• Method 1: Adding a code snippet in your build.gradle file
• Method 2: Adding node in your AndroidManifest.xml file
• Method 3: Update your minSDK and targetSDK to the highest version
• Method 4: Remove duplicates from your Manifest file
• Method 5: Check the requirements when adding a new dependency

Method 1: Adding a code snippet in your build.gradle file

In this method, we will be updating the build Tools version and check for the issue. For this process add the below code in your build.gradle file. Navigate to the app > Gradle Scripts > build.gradle (:app) and add the below code snippet to the dependencies section. Comments are added to it to get to know in more detail.

After adding this code now sync your project and again run your application to solve this issue.

Method 2: Adding node in your AndroidManifest.xml file

In this process, we will be adding an attribute in our AndroidManifest.xml file. We have to add this attribute in the application tag which is shown below. Below is the code for the whole Manifest file. After adding this file. Sync your project and run your project again to solve this issue.

Method 3: Update your minSDK and targetSDK to the highest version

Navigate to the app > Gradle Script > build.gradle (:app) and add update your SDK version in the default config section which is shown below. Add the below code in the default config section and sync your project. After adding this code sync your project and now run your app to solve this issue.

Method 4: Remove duplicates from your Manifest file

When you are using Firebase or any other external services in your project. There is some block of code that is added multiple times. Remove the duplicate code which is added in your Manifest file. Sync your project and then run your app to solve this issue.

Method 5: Check the requirements when adding a new dependency

When we are adding a new dependency make sure to check the dependency requirements such as minSDK version and targetSDK version which are required for this dependency. If multiple dependencies show conflicts in your Gradle file then we may have to remove that dependency to solve this issue.

As the Error Message says:

Android resource linking failed the files that are present in the values folder might not properly be linked up with AndroidManifest files

Check if the files present in values folder string, style, color, etc are properly mapped in AndroidManifest.xml

If no, then Map it.

Then run the following commands:
cd android
./gradlew clean
cd ..
and then run:
react-native run-android —variant=release

What do you mean by «Map it»?

I’m having the same issue, it’s been two days now, I’ve tried running gradlew clean and even going as far to delete my build folder.

When I first started the app it worked fine, but when I close out of it that’s when it becomes an issue
and this type of error would always pop up:

@varundeva @DevenRathod2
You need to merge both manifestPlaceholders into a single assignment since they are overriding each other.

Change the following

Into

I try many method and finally i fix all issues and now i cant use onesignal push notification on my whatsapp sticker app
Change the following

manifestPlaceholders = [ onesignal_app_id: ’51b99042-2041-4eb5-afc5-e94b5db99e1a’, onesignal_google_project_number: ‘REMOTE’] // Creates a placeholder property to use in the manifest. manifestPlaceholders = [contentProviderAuthority: contentProviderAuthority]

Into This

manifestPlaceholders = [ onesignal_app_id: ‘626f9699-7c17-4ab7-8e5b-c6ed7453f80e’, onesignal_google_project_number: ‘REMOTE’, contentProviderAuthority: contentProviderAuthority] // Adds a new field for the authority to the BuildConfig class. buildConfigField(«String», «CONTENT_PROVIDER_AUTHORITY», «\»$\»»)

And after this you can able to push notifaction via OneSignal
