Failing to build in Unity 2019.3.0f6 - Conflict with Firebase SDK - Duplicate dependencies

Can't build with multidex enabled

Hi there, I've been struggling for multiple days now trying to enable Multidex in order to build my project with Appodeal (which breaks the 64k methods limit) with Unity 2019.3 (betas 7 to 10). I've been through many issues, that I'm going to try to quickly describe here, as I'm sure it could spare some users some tears! What I've done 1) I've created a cutsom mainTemplate.gradle file, in which I've added 'multiDexEnabled true' in the default config, and 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3…

For anyone looking for solution.
You have to move your
implementation ‘androidx.multidex:multidex:2.0.1’
and
multiDexEnabled true
from mainTemplate.gradle to launcherTemplate.gradle and it should work.

You should activate these files first here in the Project Setting->Player->Publishing Settings

I solved it in two steps for Unity 2019.3.11f1:

• Go to Edit->Project Settings->Player->Publishing settings->Tick Custom Properties Gradle Template
• Go to the newly generated gradleTemplate.properties and add these lines to the top:

android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true

You will get the same error oddly if the password on the keystone file is incorrect… So do check that…

Thanks for pointing me out. This was the case for me.

Thank you very much, you saved me

this was the case of me
I had to move those lines from mainTemplate.gradle to launcherTemplate.gradle

This was my case as well.
The error message is extremely misleading.

Thank you, I’ve wasted half an hour on this error, bumping it for others to see, it was a typo in keystore password for me as well

thank you sir it solved my issue custom gradle properties was the issue

[AbaiK]

I found a solution! It’s all about the wrong password in key.store

I also suffered for many days, but the solution turned out to be simple:rage:

[sath]

Also check this workaround (Maybe this is caused by an incompatibility between Android Build Tools version 31.0.0 and the Unity build system)

Thanks. This solved my problem.

[batuhan_isik]

I faced with this problem in 2020.3.16f1 unity version ,

When I upgraded my facebook sdk to 11.0.0 version , I successfully built my ios project but couldn’t build on android.
I tried various solutions which are in unity forums or etc.

I solved like that ,
-Close the unity
-Delete temp folder under your project folder
-Delete Facebook sdk and facebook sdk meta folder
-Open Unity , If you face some errors in launchining to unity let ignore them.
-Import facebook sdk unity package.
-Enter the facebook sdk settings values
-You are good to go

[CarvalhoLO]

I solved this issue deleting my lybraries folder (from my game project folder) and also deleting the resolve plugin>android folder. At least i can build with these deleats but i dont know if is enought to publish an android game in google play store

[ertbaran]

I’m just clicked here and fixed.

[warrenLD]

Deleting my Library folder fixed it for me as well
