CI build fails for new app (newby)

Apps
1

Hi, I am trying to get my app on fdroid. I have done the steps in the guide, but when I push to my fork, the CI for build and checkupdate fail.

I tried java11 and gradle-(wrapper) 7.0.2 locally on my PC and here it will build the app.

But the gitlab-runner gives an error:

Build file '/home/vagrant/build/com.jacquesb.planetario_a/app/build.gradle' line: 2 * What went wrong: **Plugin [id: 'com.android.application'] was not found** in any of the following sources: - Gradle Core Plugins (plugin is not in 'org.gradle' namespace) - Plugin Repositories (plugin dependency must include a version number for this source)

What is a good strategy to resolve this?

Thanks for any help!
Jacques

Below reference to the build log, the app repository and the yml file.

Did you build it from the same code?

Can you try from renaming fastlane (c0596bb9) · Commits · planetarium / Planetario · GitLab ?

commit: c0596bb98c3b766cc2e16e6f4d130d29ab770436

Yes.
But when I build the app on my own PC, gradle needs a file local.properties, which gives the link to the local sdk-directory.
In gitlab I changed that directory-link into
sdk.dir=/opt/android-sdk
since that seemed to be the sdk build-tools directory. But that did not resolve the build failure.

I am not sure I understand your suggestion correctly.
I don’t know how to start the gitlab-runner at the specific commit you mention.

I started the gitlab-runner again, and it fails again - as to be expected.

Please open an MR.

Linsui:
I can open a merge request, but this commit will not be meeting the requirements.
I cannot confirm that: Builds with fdroid build and all pipelines pass.

Should I nevertheless open the merge request?

It’s easier to discuss in the PR. :slight_smile:

OK: you pointed out an error in my *planetario.yml file.
It read:
commit: 1
but should read (e.g.):
commit: c0596bb98c3b766cc2e16e6f4d130d29ab770436
Pointing to the commit I want the gitlab-runner to build

Thanks, you resolved the 3 errors in the .yml file very quick!
thanks.
