this video is golden! I have tried to convert py to apk so many times, and this is the first succesfull attempt! Big thanks.

[tifferetsonnenberg]

hello, I am having a problem with my buildozer, I am getting this error
error: command '/usr/bin/ccache' failed with exit code 1
how can i resolve it?

[shashiranjan]

Now, this is also NOT working. Getting error in build process

[startnowdoing]

The `set-output` command is deprecated and will be disabled soon. Please upgrade to using Environment Files

This problem's solution is what?

[vishwanathtigadi]

Thanks man! I have no idea on buildozer. i kept on editing my apk code to fix it. you're a life saver...

Any way i can mute the console? it prints like 40000 lines and takes 30 minutes to build

[robertbarrios]

It does not work for me at all, my simple app with kivy, 5-6 different tutorials and recent videos and nothing helped me 😢

[OTRODUGS]

Thanks, really thanks in the community hispana exist lot information about kivy but you save my semester thanks.

[ArchieKingsford]

[ifeanyionyeukwu]

hello please i am still the error Buildozer failed to execute the last command ow do i fix it

[akusins]

Eh... I wasn`t lucky "This step has been truncated due to its large size. Download the full logs from the menu once the workflow run has completed." :( will search further

Can we convert folders with multiple python files to apk files

[cipherosx]

Hey! Thanks! This video was the only one which helped me after THOUSANDS of attempts with many methods. I can run my kivy app on android! My unique problem is that the background video is not being displayed, do you know why? I've uploaded it (in mp4) together with the main.py, buildozer.spec and icon.png. Unexpectedly this last one is shown on the phone's home screen in contrast to the background video, which isn't it on the app. I hope you can bring me support!
