I am using UE 5.4 and I am trying to package my project for Android. I have followed the steps here Unreal Engine 5.4.x for Meta Quest VR | Community tutorial

but I am getting the error:

PackagingResults: Error: Unknown Error

Here is the full log after the stage command is completed:

Does anyone know what could be causing this error?

I fixed the error.

The issue was in my Build.cs file. I copied some code from the Meta Unreal-SharedSpaces project and this is what was causing the error:

if (Target.Platform == UnrealTargetPlatform.Android && Target.Configuration == UnrealTargetConfiguration.Shipping)
{
var manifestFile = Path.Combine(ModuleDirectory, “AndroidSanitizePermissions_UPL.xml”);
AdditionalPropertiesForReceipt.Add(“AndroidPlugin”, manifestFile);
}
