Can't perform android app release

newbiSoso

From what I understand you need to build release the app to get the final APK right?

I keep getting the following errors on the console output:

E:\felgo\Felgo\android_armv7\bin\qmlcachegen.exe --resource=D:/felgoProjects/TabTab_final/resources.qrc -o qml_helper_SectionContent_qml.cpp ..\TabTab_final\qml\helper\SectionContent.qml

I did all the requirements for publishing on the .pro file and main.cpp, what can I do to fix the issue?

Please double check what you added to your resource file...

True, I add them later and the build was successful, but I only get the debug build not the release one, I can’t upload it to google play.

Console output after I tried cleaning the project:

I changed the .pro and config.json files to perform publishing, are there other steps I forgot?

So what's the issue?
It looks like this build finished properly (you can ignore those warnings regarding QML imports).

newbiSoso

@Pablo-J-Rogina Build only results in debug version not the release one.

J.Hilk

@newbiSoso
no, its a release version.

It has debug in its name because you probably forgot to sign your apk.

Really? see below:

Starting: "D:\android-ndk-r19c-windows-x86_64\android-ndk-r19c\prebuilt\windows-x86_64\bin\make.exe" -f D:/felgoProjects/build-TabTab_final-Android_for_armeabi_v7a_Clang_Qt_5_13_2_for_Android_ARMv7-Release/Makefile

it looks like qmake from Felgo framework is using Makefile from Release folder...
