Hello again!

After plenty of help regarding the failing android preview mentioned in this post:

[https://www.fusetools.com/community/forums/bug\_reports/android\_preview\_fails](https://www.fusetools.com/community/forums/bug_reports/android_preview_fails)

I now experience another problem with the android preview…

When trying to preview the “AttractorMinimal” example, I get the following error:

ERROR: supportv4.jar was not found. Please run ‘fuse install android’ in your shell and then restart your build

I tried to run ‘fuse install android’ again, which gave the same result.

I’m using Fuse 0.12.1.6296 on Win10

Hi Mia,

`fuse install android` should of course have installed supportv4, so that’s strange. However do you use a manually installed Android SDK? And if that’s the case, could you try to find a folder called `v4` located here at `[AndroidSDK]/extras/android/support`

A workaround is to manually install `Android Support Library` by running `uno android`, and make sure `Extras->Android Support Library` is selected before clicking `Install Package(s)`.

I’m having this exact issue. Pops up when I try to preview on my s6 Edge+ and when I try to export to .apk. I’ve tried the above, every reinstalled fuse. Still not working. Using v0.12.2, Win10.

Hi,

Could you take a screenshot of the Android SDK Manager, with the show installed packages filter ticked, as following. _(Run `uno android` to open the Android SDK Manager)_

Absolutely good sir. I’ve even included the error (and two other screen shots). Also, when it states the supportv4.jar not found, I checked that following directory and it is located there. Unsure if that will assist at all.

When attempting to build .apk:

And for good measure, the error when trying to preview on my droid:

Hi,

We think we have determined the cause of the issue. This is a space in path bug from our side. There will be a hotfix release, released in the near future. However in the meanwhile, here is a workaround:

1. Locate `%programdata%\Uno\Packages\UnoCore\[VersionNumber]\Targets\Android\build.bat`
2. Replace line 13: `if exist "%SUPPORT_JAR%" (` -\> `if exist %SUPPORT_JAR% (` in _build.bat_
3. Run `uno clean` in your project directory

Hope this helps 🙂

I’m happy you all found the cause and I look forward to that fix. I’ll give the workaround a try when I get home this evening.

Hi,

Also android support library is showing as installed Android SDK Manager but there is no

`/Users/unnikrishnan.b/Library/Android/sdk/extras/android/support` folder in my system

Should I reinstall the SDK?

It’s weird that you are missing that folder since the `fuse install android` command explicitly tries to locate that folder, and should have failed. Anyways, you should try to reinstall the sdk, by deleting the folder, and then install it again by running `fuse install android`.
