I’m getting the error “Couldn’t open descriptor file for mobile.” When I try to install it as AAB on my phone, I get this error when opening it. …/../../Platformlar/Platformlar.uproject descriptor file could not be opened. What’s the solution? Thank you.
Hello @Barymouse ,
I did some research on this error and found an old post where they talk about it. Here are a few possible solutions that might work for you:
The first Solution is :
- Launch the project onto the device and get the descriptor error.
- Create a packaged build (I was using Multi).
- Use the
.bat
files to remove the app from the device. - Use the
.bat
files to install the app to the device again. - After that, launching onto the device worked again without the descriptor file error.
The second Solution is :
Add android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"
in Project Settings > Android > Extra Tags for the application node by clicking the “+” icon.
(For both, make sure you’ve deleted the Binaries, Intermediate, and Saved folders before repackaging/rebuilding your project).
Another solution is setting Platforms > Android > Install Location
to Auto.
And the last one is to Disable Android File Server.
I’ll leave the post here in case you want to take a look at it,other users also shared different solutions there.
Hope it helps!
