Package Project for android VR failed, need help!

[niall010]

I’m trying to package a project to Meta Quest 2 and keep getting this build error. I have tried with a new project and have been using this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znvDJ9E-SFk&t=2325s

I am using 5.4.4.

Error:

Also to me packing for meta quest 2 gave ploblems, in my case it was because of gltf materials , but from the error it gives you could be that the problem is in the naming of some file?

Hello there @niall010!

Thank you for the log extract, this looks like a tricky scenario. From what I can see, the chain starts to break in the following line:

Unhandled exception: System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.
at EpicGames.Core.FileSystemReference.ContainsName(String name, Int32 offset, Int32 length) in D:\build++UE5\Sync\Engine\Saved\CsTools\Engine\Source\Programs\Shared\EpicGames.Core\FileSystemReference.cs

This call suggest that the build is trying to reach for a missing or incorrect path. The first step would be to confirm that all file path are correctly set in your project, as well as ensure that your Android SDK, NDK, and JDK are in the proper versions. A similar scenario was encounterd here:

UPDATE If I don’t build for arm64, but do build for x86_64, I can build for Android. This doesn’t help me, as I need to install to quest 2, but it might help identify what’s going on. Hey! So basically I’ve been attempting to package Android for UE5.2 (specifically 5.2.1 source), however I can’t seem to get it to work at all. I can easily package for 5.1, and I don’t see many topics at all about people having problems with 5.2 so I’m curious if there is a solution. No matter what configuratio…

If the issue persists after that, I would suggest refreshing the build, via deleting the contents from folders Intermediate, Binaries, and Saved, then regenerating and rebuilding the project.

Finally, make sure that all elements tied to Visual Studio 2022 are also properly setup:
