Hey guys! I’m running into an annoying build error when trying to generate an Android build from within the editor.
LogPlayLevel: FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
LogPlayLevel: * What went wrong:
LogPlayLevel: 48 actionable tasks: 48 executed
LogPlayLevel: Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'.
LogPlayLevel: > A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade

LogPlayLevel: This should not happen under normal circumstances, please file an issue if it does.
LogPlayLevel: * Try:
LogPlayLevel: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

So far, Googling has only given me one answer - Delete the “Intermediate” folder’s contents and try again - but I’m not having any luck with this (or deleting any of the other editor-generated folders). Additionally, seeing the log for more details as suggested only seems to give me the exact same details.
Therefore, I’d like to actually try running gradle with the verbosity options suggested, such as --stacktrace or --info. However, I’m not sure where to plug these arguments in to have them included while the build is generated under the same context. For instance, navigating directly to the gradle folder below Intermediate and running gradlew.bat results in a different error about a missing keystore. The fact that this error is associated with a different task (not app:processDebugResources), and that I’m not under the impression that I need to be worried about the keystore yet to generate a simple debug build, leads me to believe that it’s trying to generate the build under different circumstances, rather than it actually being a more detailed log of the error I’m receiving from within the editor.
Any insight on how I can generate a more detailed error message would be greatly appreciated!
