QUESTION
I have a Xamarin Forms app for Android, which works perfectly fine when I build it locally in VS. I've set up a pipeline to build it in Azure DevOps, too, but the XamarinAndroid@1 task keeps failing without any actual error messages; it just stops. The corresponding "error message" in the pipeline view is just "No message found for this issue". I even added a VSBuild@1 task before, which successfully compiles all projects (including unit tests, which all succeed).
The failing task itself is nothing special, pretty default stuff:
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Jul-21 at 09:09So after the (semi-legal ^^) discussion in the comments with @jdweng I found the culprit: I was indeed using different frameworks in the various libraries, which somehow let the pipeline build fail.
Since DevOps agent jobs (to my understanding) always run on blank, fresh VMs, legacy files could not have been a problem (plus various un-/checkings of "clean" options didn't change anything, either). It's also important to note that everything was only about the pure building (a.k.a converting a *.sln file to an *.apk file), no actual deployment happened yet, and obviously no files were manually exchanged between local and remote machines, as everything was always built from scratch.

QUESTION
We've got a mobile application (Xamarin.Forms for iOS and Android) that we've been in the progress of migrating from our on-premise Team Foundation Server (TFS) to Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS). For the last couple of months now we've hosted our code in VSTS but have performed the builds and releases to the respective stores from our on-premise TFS. Late last week I migrated both the build and release definitions to VSTS as well, so that now we have the entire process in VSTS.
Or so I thought... For, while the iOS build and release works fine, and Android builds and releases as well, the Android application now crashes when you attempt to run it. No major (read: no) changes have taken place in the code and neither HockeyApp nor our App's own error log are able to record the reason for the crash - nor does the Google Developer Console provide us with any insight for that matter. After a couple of tries I was able to get the following exception out of a Logcat:
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Jun-15 at 23:45As it turns out, updating Xamarin.Forms is the solution.
Though suggested as resolution to the same error as ours on the Xamarin forums, and something I had come across before, the age of the post and the old version of Xamarin.Forms involved made me disregard this option as less relevant to our problem. What didn't help either was that I thought we were already on the highest version of Xamarin.Forms 2.5.1, and are not quite ready to move to Xamarin.Forms 3.0 yet. Yesterday, however, I discovered there was still a revision we could upgrade within the 2.5.1-branch, which is what I did. When I then tried a build with this code, surprisingly the resulting APK turned out to run without any issue!
The reason why updating Xamarin.Forms works is unclear to us, though. We did, however, observe that this particular version of Xamarin.Forms, 2.5.1.527436, was released just about a week before I migrated our build definition from TFS to VSTS. It might therefore be that there's some correlation there.
Edit 1Ran into some trouble with Xamarin.Forms 2.5.1.527436 today, which has eventually led me to the most likely cause for our problems creating an Android build of our App. That is, in order to resolve a crash caused by Xamarin.Forms, I tried to revert Forms to the last version I knew still worked. However, the problem with Xamarin.Forms persisted, even after the downgrade. This triggered me to inspect the project-files and compare the working version of the App to that which had been downgraded, yet should have ended up the same notwithstanding.
As it turns out some project files had references to two different versions of Xamarin.Forms: the one that I had intended to use, and the one we had been using before that. Now this mixture didn't cause any problems while running on a local development machine, since this machine would have both old and new versions of Xamarin.Forms installed and there would therefore not be any missing assemblies. However, I can imagine that this would not be the case when running a VSTS-build on a build-server. Moreover, the project files containing the incorrect assembly references were both Android projects - which explains why iOS had no trouble building...!

Install android-task
You can use android-task like any standard Java library. Please include the the jar files in your classpath. You can also use any IDE and you can run and debug the android-task component as you would do with any other Java program. Best practice is to use a build tool that supports dependency management such as Maven or Gradle. For Maven installation, please refer maven.apache.org. For Gradle installation, please refer gradle.org .
