Getting “The AndroidManifest.xml of the uploaded APK could not be parsed. Was it compiled properly?” error after enabling Google App Signing

问题

After enabling Google App Signing, everytime I try to upload a signed release APK to Play Store I get an error saying The AndroidManifest.xml of the uploaded APK could not be parsed. Was it compiled properly?.

Here is the Android Manifest file got from the signed APK with the APK Analyzer tool

I'm building the APK using Android Studio Beta 6 and signing with the generated upload key

How can I solve this?

回答1:

Just a raw deduction. Take a look at your package name.
package="com.myproject"

It looks so common and as we know that package name is used by android to uniquely identify your application and also, there is already an app with the same package name in play store(I reckon it's not yours). Why don't you give a try with a different package name?

For package naming convention, go here.

How to rename packages in Android Studio? (If required).

回答2:

Problem fixed after following the bellow steps:

• Update Android Studio 3.0 to Beta 7
• Update Gradle Plugin to 3.0.0-beta7 (required by AS Beta 7)
• Change compileSdkVersion to 26
• Change buildToolsVersion to 26.0.2
• Update the Android Support Libraries to 26.1.0.

So probably the error was caused by a bug in Android Studio 3.0 Beta 6
