java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.Exception: Sub service_create signature does not match expected signature.

Has anyone seen this error before? It pops up on my 7 inch android tablet with one particular B4A app.

Check the Service_Create sub, make sure you are creating it correctly, also, more details would help or showing part of the code.

I'm using a service, for the push notifications. Everything goes fine, the service is persisten. When I run the application in debug, there is no problem, but when I close the application from the memory, and the device receives a message, I get the error in the log that it cannot create the service. I cannot see more details where is the problem, as the main program is not running, I cannot connect the debbuger to the application, just to the system message, and in the device I have a msgbox saying that the app has stop.

My logs are the following:

TRACE:LocationChanged
TRACE:LocationChanged
** Activity (amain) Pause, UserClosed = false **
Program compiled in debug mode, can only run with debugger attached.
** Service (pushservice) Create **

Any chance that someone has encountered this same error?

Thanks in advance

Sub MessageArrived (Intent As Intent)

Could it be that this variable's name is the same as its type? I had this error once.

This error happens when you install a rapid debug app and later it is started from a service (and fails because the debugger is no longer attached).

You need to install a Release app for this.
