I have read earlier post with people having this problem. I was wondering if there is a work around for this or do we just wait for the next update.

Are you trying to compile an APK for amazon? According to damothegreat it compiles fine if you set it to 'Landscape' or 'All' in the orientation dropdown menu. I've not tested this yet as my app is portrait only. I guess if you don't mind the app rotating then setting it to all would work?

And yes, we're waiting for Paul to acknowledge the bug, and hopefully include a fix in the next update.

I have tried it both Landscape and Portrait and I get the same error code 1. I am compiling for Google. Looks like we just wait.

Thanks

@damothegreat:
I've compiled both landscape and portrait APK's for Google using AppGameKit v2.0.21, I'm guessing it's something else?

@DennisW:
I'd like to see a screen shot of your export settings as well please. If the exporter is broken somehow the more information we can gather for Paul the better.

Uninstall and Reinstall AGK. That worked for me

I cannot re-produce the error with those settings.

As @Blink0k suggests - an uninstall and reinstall might work.

I haven't uninstalled AppGameKit before, so

Just to in safe side - Before uninstall, please Backup / Copy all your projects (three times) from the project folder somewhere else on your machine

as the uninstall may delete the whole Project folder without any warning

Just been reading Pauls last update in Sept

https://forum.thegamecreators.com/thread/217887

On Pauls snippet it suggests that we may have problems with APK exporting (IF) a version of AppGameKit is been previously installed/upgraded over the top of a previous one

The way round it is uninstall fully (completely delete ) or install in a brand new folder location

@damothegreat:
I'm fairly sure the error code is 0 if it's the 'installed over an old installation' error code, and it affects ALL exporting apk's. I may be wrong though. It's definitely a different bug to the one I reported.

@DennisW:
Trying a clean installation would be a good place to start. If you installed AppGameKit v2.0.21 over an older installation of AppGameKit then this is probably your issue and uninstalling/reinstalling will probably fix it.

Okay Update
The last time I had a successful apk was with 2.20. So I did a complete uninstall and I am happy to report that all is well no error. Now if I installed it over the existing version I can't honestly say. It's a good bet that it I did. Because it did not work and now it dose. Thanks for the help.
