Broken Android build process

Cocos Creator
#1

I use Creator 3.8.0 and for some reason, for last couple of days, when I’m trying to build native Android app, after “Build” step, there’s no files in ‘build\android\data\src\cocos-js’. Make step works fine, but after that I have broken APK which shows only black screen, because it couldn’t load ‘src\cocos-js\cc.js’.
I tried turning on “MD5 Cache” Build option and then I got error
‘’[Assets] ENOENT: no such file or directory, rename ‘[PROJECT_PATH]\build\android\data\src\cocos-js\cc.js’ → ‘[PROJECT_PATH]\build\android\data\src\cocos-js\cc.d41d8.js’

How can I solve this problem?

#2

Also build works fine, if I turn on “Debug” option

#3

Resolved for now by upgrading engine to 3.8.1

#4

It happened again. Now even in Debug build, after launching an app it doesn’t load, and there is error in logcat

I definitely haven’t changed anything in an engine or in a build settings.

And now web-mobile build is broken too

Is there a way to prevent this? Or somehow make a clean build of an engine. This issue blocks my work.

#6

I had the same problem with web-mobile in 3.8.1…in 3.8.2 this problem has not yet arisen…try clearing the cache before building:
CocosCreator_sv3ZEVGfVH

It seems to me that in 3.8.2 the missing cc.js file was fixed.

#7

Addition. Yes, this was apparently fixed in 3.8.2. Now it simply writes:

CocosCreator_OhtEN2mdoe
CocosCreator_OhtEN2mdoe1320×60 5.4 KB

and everything is being built, apparently, anew.

#8

Thanks! I managed to solve my problem by removing all existing builds and making new ones for now, but if it happens again, I’ll update to 3.8.2
