Android app won't open (This release does not add or remove any app bundles.)

[antbelogurov]

Hi
I have uploaded the app to google play. It was published. But it doesn't open. There are no errors. But the icon appears strange. Not what I downloaded. When testing, it gives this error 'This release does not add or remove any app bundles'

Application in vue quasar. Created according to this instruction https://quasar.dev/quasar-cli/developing-cordova-apps/build-commands
debugg version of apk is installed on the phone and everything works. I don’t understand what is happening with the aab format.

First, could you post the output of quasar info for your project. ( very important)

Created according to this instruction https://quasar.dev/quasar-cli/developing-cordova-apps/build-commands

I think this part of the docs is outdated and does not work anymore for publishing to the play store.

I googled a bit on the Cordova github and came across this post:
apache/cordova-android#729

I think you have to set the --packageType to bundle:
cordova build android --release -- --packageType=bundle

Or straight from the cordova docs:
cordova run android --release -- --keystore=../my-release-key.keystore --storePassword=password --alias=alias_name --password=password --packageType=bundle

Thing is you'll probably need Cordova v10 for this packageType option....

I did it with this command cordova build android --release -- --packageType=bundle

in google play console i have this error java.lang.ClassNotFoundException dalvik.system.BaseDexClassLoader.findClass quasar

Can you tell me the instructions on which to build this release?

@antbelogurov

I see you're on version Qv1 with Cordova v10 ( all good).

I did it with this command cordova build android --release -- --packageType=bundle

So what did it output? The new bundle format? Did you upload it to the play store?

in google play console i have this error

What is google play console? When exactly did you encounter this error? (for example: when uploading to play store, installing to phone etc..)

Could you post the actual command that you used to build the app ( from the image you posted ).

Also can you post the output of quasar upgrade ( you have to do this an actual cmd console, not in your ide terminal)

I have the same problem

This release does not add or remove any app bundles.

and I am using quasar 2 and capacitor
