java.io.IOException: No original dex files found for dex location

Question

I\'m trying to build an Android application using the latest SDK from project files that haven\'t been updated since 2015. With a little work, I\'ve managed to get it build

Answer 1

I had the same error but it was found out that I forgot to add permission in AndroidManifest.xml. My app uses internet with a webview, so I need the permission.

Also seems like there was a mistake in activity name in the manifest file.

When I corrected these, the error disappeared.
