Hello,

i have the problem that i can only start the app in release mode. In debug mode I get this message when compiling:
B4X:

I don't even know that this is possible ?
No, I haven't found any code in Globals or Process_Globals.

Is this really an error at compilation time or is it at execution?

I would try the following in the Manifest File....

B4X: 
#DebuggerForceStandardAssets : true

Although there might be a more recent solution

it is not.

Note that you can only use variable declaration (dim x as string) but NOT setting any Values (x="y")

It would help if you upload your project or at least post the code in Globals and Process_Globals (from any module).

I'm sorry, the project is compiling, and right after execution the error message appears and the app is exiting. But only in debug mode.
DebuggerForceStandardAssets is not making a difference.

I'm confused: I changed android:targetSdkVersion from 26 to 29.
Then the project has compiled and started in debug mode. In the log, at the beginning there is: "Copying updated assets files (79)" - and this only in debug mode!
On a second try it didn't work anymore, only if I compile in release mode before.

Did you adapt your app to be ready for targetsdk 29? There are some changes needed.

android.jar / targetSdkVersion / minSdkVersion

There are several versioned components that affect the compilation process and the runtime behavior of our apps. The purpose of this tutorial is to explain the differences between them and help you choose which version to use. Each Android version is mapped to an api level. You can see this...

Also you still did not uploaded some code. Based on the error i would expect you have code running in process_global which should not there.

This is usually related to code inside one of the global subs. In most cases there would be a warnings about it.

Have you tried to disable firewall?

Here are the Globals and Process_Globals declarations.

Setting targetsdk to 29 was just a attempt.

Current state: it works now (I've pulled an older version from Git). Unfortunately I can't say what the reason is. When I compare the changes, I don't see any relevant differences.
But the main thing is that I can continue working now.

Thanks a lot to everyone for your help!
