Error while writing the APK Set archive about bundletool HOT 9 CLOSED

Thank you for reporting this issue.

Bundletool uses temporary files to store intermediate results, so it is possible that the OS performed a clean-up during bundletool execution. Is this a persistent issue or a one-off? Is the system possibly low on disk space?

This happens 100% of the time

I believe the issue is that the directory /home/yperess/workspace/myapp/build/outputs/apk/release/ does not exist, so bundletool is unable to write the file there.
Could you confirm?

In the lack of follow up, I'll close the issue. Feel free to reopen if it this wasn't what I suggested.

@plecesne I had the same issue reported by @yperess.
I just want to confirm that fixing the path in the --output flag made the command to compile and my .apks has been generated.
My mistake was thinking that writing an unexisting folder in the --output flag would automatically create that folder for me.

Note that this will be fixed in next version of bundletool.

Sorry for reviving an old issue - @plecesne could you please confirm that this has indeed been fixed? It seems I'm having the same problem right now with version 1.2.0.

Bundletool failed on our CI but was working fine for me locally, and the only difference I see between the two is that the parent folder doesn't exist yet on CI.

Yes, it should be fixed already and if output directory doesn't exist you should see in logs the following message "Output directory ... does not exist, creating it."

@ymakhno thanks a lot! You made me realise that I'm hijacking the wrong issue here. Bundletool failed for me when creating the aab, not when building the apks. :(
