Hi

We tried updating the Wave SDK to 6.1.0 and we ran into some issues with gradle.

- We set the gradle version to 6.9.2

- We modified baseProjectTemplate.gradle to use AGP 4.2.0

But when we make a build these errors show up:

 1) 

CommandInvokationFailure: Gradle build failed. 
C:/Program Files/Unity/Hub/Editor/2019.4.28f1/Editor/Data/PlaybackEngines/AndroidPlayer\OpenJDK\bin\java.exe -classpath "C:\workspace\gradle\gradle-6.9.2\lib\gradle-launcher-6.9.2.jar" org.gradle.launcher.GradleMain "-Dorg.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx4096m" "assembleRelease"

It seems to complain about not being able to update:

C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2019.4.28f1\Editor\Data\PlaybackEngines\AndroidPlayer\SDK

 

because it's not writable, however If i go to that folder and make sure it's writable, when I make a new build unity will make it read only automatically.

Hi @Overlay,

Please follow below instructions to resolve your issue.

1. Download Android Studio: https://developer.android.com/studio

2. Launch Android Studio and go to Tools>SDK Manager to open Android SDK settings page.

3. Install the Android SDK Build-Tools 30.0.2 as mentioned in your error message.

4. Setup Android SDK Tools path in your Unity project, go to Edit>Preferences...>External Tools

Hi @Overlay,

Could you check step 3, please ensure to uncheck 35.0.0 for Android SDK Build-Tools?
