[🐛] Task :react-native-firebase_app:packageDebugResources FAILED

[Joshman1412]

Issue

Describe your issue here
build keeps failing due to many issues with fire base and now im getting this when i try to build Task :react-native-firebase_app:packageDebugResources FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong:
  A problem was found with the configuration of task ':react-native-firebase_app:packageDebugResources' (type 'MergeResources').

  • Gradle detected a problem with the following location: 'C:\App Development\GrooveSwap\node_modules@react-native-firebase\app\android\build\generated\res\resValues\debug'.

    Reason: Task ':react-native-firebase_app:packageDebugResources' uses this output of task ':@react-native-firebase_app:generateDebugResValues' without declaring an explicit or implicit dependency. This can lead to incorrect results being produced, depending on what order the tasks are executed.

    Possible solutions:

    1. Declare task ':@react-native-firebase_app:generateDebugResValues' as an input of ':react-native-firebase_app:packageDebugResources'.
    2. Declare an explicit dependency on ':@react-native-firebase_app:generateDebugResValues' from ':react-native-firebase_app:packageDebugResources' using Task#dependsOn.
    3. Declare an explicit dependency on ':@react-native-firebase_app:generateDebugResValues' from ':react-native-firebase_app:packageDebugResources' using Task#mustRunAfter.

Hello @Joshman1412 have you tried one of the offered solutions?

@Lyokone Which solutions were offered?

[brunogdsdev]

with expo i added:

{
  "expo": {
 "plugins": [
      "@react-native-firebase/app"
   ]
   }
   }

and this added:

android/build.gradle:
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.4.1'

android/app/build.gradle:
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

[Keenan-Softserve]

My fix actually was to remove the code instructed for manual linking and allowing auto-linking to do its job.

The docs confused me so I followed the wrong (manual linking) instructions, which caused this problem for me.

[russellwheatley]

Thanks for confirming fix, @Keenan-Softserve. @Joshman1412 - did this resolve your issue?

[brunogdsdev]

@Keenan-Softserve exactly, same here... The docs confused me too so i followed manual linking and the show this error, when remove manual linking and allow auto-linking all is fine
