Android Question Maven artifact not found: com.google.firebase/firebase-messaging

[valentino s]

Reading the firebase notification tutorila here I've tried to start a demo, but if failed with the error:

Maven artifact not found: com.google.firebase/firebase-messaging

So I've read the others comment on the forum, but I wasn't able to solve.

I'm quite sure that depends from folders, but I can't solve.

These are the screenshots of an empty new b4a project with firebase library loaded. It gives me the error.

Any idea ?

The error and "additional library" path:

Where my files are located:

the sdk manager window:

The paths don't look correct.

1. The additional libraries field has nothing to do with Android SDK folders. Don't point it to Android SDK.
2. The path to android.jar points to ...\Android\SDK
The path of the Maven repositories points to ...\Android\android-sdk.

I recommend you to delete the complete Android SDK and install it again under c:\android.

YES, (obviously) works.
Two things learned:

1) install sdk on c:\android
2) additional libraries are for the libs provided only by b4a developers (not android sdk).

Thanks once more.

I have only one path, and I get the same message, what am I doing wrong ?
Firebase is under anywhere software libraries as with the other jars. (C:\Program Files (x86)\Anywhere Software\Basic4android\Libraries)

Make sure that the two repositories are installed (see Firebase integration instructions).

It is usually better to save the Android SDK outside of Program Files as Program Files is a protected folder and the Android SDK will fail to update the libraries.

Thank you Erel, that did the trick. I saw the previous post about android/sdk here and android-sdk there, and I saw that my names were ok (android-sdk). Simply installing again under C:\android did the trick, I don't understand why, but lesson learnt. Thanks
