How to resolve Duplicate files copied in APK META-INF/rxjava.properties

Question

I am using rxjava and rxvolley on my android aplication. When I try to run it I get this error

Execution failed for task \':testapp:transformResourcesWithMer         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem. The way I fixed it is adding the packagingOptions in app gradle as described in Duplicated file rxjava.properties

android {

    defaultConfig {
    }
    buildTypes {
    }
    packagingOptions{
        exclude 'META-INF/rxjava.properties'
    }
}
