resources.ap_ does not exist when compile my android project

Compile Error: Error generating final archive: java.io.FileNotFoundException: ..\bin\resources.ap_ does not exist.

Compile other simple sample works. Same source file and project works on my college's machine.

Any tips ? Why resources.ap_ doesn't get generated ?


Did you do a Project > Clean? If that doesn't work, try forcing Eclipse to build the project again. Restart Eclipse if that still doesn't work.


I created an empty text file under C:\Users\me\workspace\project\bin\resources.ap_

Then Cleaned/Rebuild... that seemed to fix it.


In my case was a 9 patch drawable that was modified with GIMP, then adb cannot "parse" it, recreated with the draw9patch then worked fine


I was getting both the error in this thread and the one in this post: Android Unknown Command 'crunch'.

Updating the Android SDK inside Eclipse fixed both errors for me.
