Where are all the relevant infos?
- Which version of the firebase libraries you are using? Especially FirebaseAnalytics
- What is the manifestcode?

Problem start after today update sdk.

 

[DonManfred]

Problem start after today update sdk.

I tried a sdk update after your thread here too.

i tried to run an working app (in the past) with the new artifacts.
It crashes here too. I got another error than you.
I am investigating.

 

[DonManfred]

When i did open my project i got a missing artifact error from the IDE about firebase-installations.

Did you got the same and installed the artifact too like i did?

I installed these two

The missing artifact error gone after i installed them.
But when running the app i got an error here. Another error than yours though.

 

[Lello1964]

yes, same installation.

 

[Lello1964]

I had to search and add manually other Firebase Lib to compile app after automatic selection, and then start problems

 

[Erel]

I'll check it tomorrow. In the meantime you can download a new Android SDK with the additional resources: https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html

 

[drgottjr]

and this. i never saw this before. downloaded new android sdk + those missing firebase resources (manually)

 

[Erel]

I've removed the Firebase components from the list of recommended items.

For now you should use the components that are included in the "additional resources": https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html
If you already downloaded the updated Firebase components then download the additional resources and copy extras\b4a_local and extras\b4a_remote from the additional resources to your SDK.

 

[KMatle]

Sounds like a workaround. Will there be a solution (maybe I don't get it right)?

 

[Erel]

Not exactly a workaround. The latest versions of Firebase aren't even listed in the release notes: https://firebase.google.com/support/release-notes/android
It is possible that there are new requirements which will be soon documented.

maybe this is relevant?!

Firebase Core

com.google.firebase:firebase-core:17.2.2 No longer add the Android library com.google.firebase:firebase-core. This SDK included the Firebase SDK for Google Analytics. Now, to use Analytics (or any of the Firebase products that require or recommend the use of Analytics), you need to explicitly add the Analytics dependency: com.google.firebase:firebase-analytics:17.2.2

 

[Erel]

I tried it and it didn't work and also the latest version is 17.2.3. It is better to wait a bit until Google clear things up.

 

[Jorge M A]

It is better to wait a bit until Google clear things up

Sorry for the suggestion, but I think it's worth a Big Note on the headline of the forum, because some of us got here only after we had beaten everything.
Thank you.

 

[cholo]

I have updated today to latest SDK.
I use FirebaseAuth (1.06) and I can't start in debug mode. I can in Release Mode.

I don't understand the problem...

 

[Erel]

It is a different issue. Please start a new thread and also post the logs.
