When after I give the command:

buildozer android debug deploy run

I am getting the following error. Its showing syntax error ?

# Install distribute

It looks like this curl failed for some reason. Could you make sure your buildozer is fully up to date with git, delete your .buildozer directory, and try again?

I would try to update your Python version, make sure it is the latest.

  • I tried it, but didn't help $ python -V Python 3.8.0 – xralf Oct 11 '20 at 02:58
  • I would try _inclement's_ post below. – LucioRandy Oct 11 '20 at 03:36
  • Or try [this](https://github.com/kivy/buildozer/issues/1017)! – LucioRandy Oct 14 '20 at 14:14
  • now it ends with [this](https://pastebin.com/cq89izNd) error – xralf Oct 14 '20 at 14:57
  • Try [this](https://github.com/kivy/buildozer/issues/760) or [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60963080/kivy-buildozer-spec-error-trying-to-build-an-android-app-that-sends-an-email-o). – LucioRandy Oct 14 '20 at 19:17
  • I couldn't downgrade buildozer, so I would try this option `option 2) do the download by hand per codingsett's comment, but make sure you have the version that buildozer expects. In my case it wants r9c. So download http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r9c-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2, and unzip it into the expected location, in this case ~/.buildozer/android/platform then run buildozer again as normal.` but I need another URL. My buildozer wants this version `https://dl.google.com/android/repository/android-ndk-r19c-linux-x86.zip` I can't find the URL for r19c-linux-x86 – xralf Oct 14 '20 at 19:42
  • Check out [this](https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads). – LucioRandy Oct 14 '20 at 20:43
  • There is only this version `https://dl.google.com/android/repository/android-ndk-r19c-linux-x86_64.zip` but my cpu is probably 32 bit (i686) . `file /lib/systemd/systemd /lib/systemd/systemd: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0,...` – xralf Oct 15 '20 at 02:25
  • I tried it, but I have [this](https://pastebin.com/zzvecTZT) error now. [This](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51781916/create-kivy-apk-with-buildozer-error-aidl-cannot-be-executed) didn't help, because I don't have these directories. – xralf Oct 15 '20 at 02:50
  • I tried [this](https://github.com/kivy/buildozer/issues/532) but didn't help. Probably because my directory structure is different. – xralf Oct 15 '20 at 03:32
  • This helped: `sudo apt install aidl` – xralf Oct 15 '20 at 03:39
  • But this error occured `Building libffi for armeabi-v7a [ERROR]: Build failed: Couldn't find executable for CC.` – xralf Oct 15 '20 at 03:44
  • I found [this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/59715813/653379) but don't know what to change in my case. – xralf Oct 15 '20 at 03:55

Don't use virtual env. I had a similar issue. Just install builddozer and kivy in the default environment

  • Without virtual env, it doesn't work as well. See LucioRandy answer. In the comment there is where I have stuck. – xralf Oct 16 '20 at 18:32

  • Thank you. I still have [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59593341/buildozer-build-failed-couldnt-find-executable-for-cc) error. – xralf Oct 20 '20 at 17:52
  • Did u install cython? And also install these dependencies. (From docs) `sudo apt install -y git zip unzip openjdk-8-jdk python3-pip autoconf libtool pkg-config zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev libtinfo5 cmake libffi-dev libssl-dev` `pip3 install --user --upgrade Cython virtualenv` # the --user should be removed if you do this in a venv # add the following line at the end of your ~/.bashrc file `export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin/` – Vikram Rayavarapu Oct 21 '20 at 18:08
  • Yes, I have cython 0.29.21. Now, I have [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64468814/buildozer-c-compiler-cannot-create-executables) problem – xralf Oct 21 '20 at 18:11
  • Try installing other dependencies. Is your kivy app running fine on interpreter? – Vikram Rayavarapu Oct 21 '20 at 18:12
  • That could be the problem. The kivy app runs only in python3.6 (not python3.8). I will try to fix it. – xralf Oct 21 '20 at 18:14
  • I installed kivy from Python3.8 and the app runs, but build failed. – xralf Oct 21 '20 at 18:35
