Update gitlab CI/CD pipeline from Java 8 to Java 11 for Android app

Question

Previously I had this is the beginning of my .gitlab-ci.yml file:

image: openjdk:8-jdk

variables:
 ANDROID_HOME: "/androidsdk"

before_script:
  - chmod +x ./gradlew
  - ./scripts/setup-android-sdk.sh

Now I changed image to

image: openjdk:11-jdk

and I have this error in ci/cd:

My setup-android-sdk script:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

ANDROID_COMPILE_SDK=`egrep 'compileSdkVersion [0-9]*' androidclient/build.gradle | awk '{print $2}'`

yes | ${ANDROID_HOME}/tools/bin/sdkmanager --licenses
${ANDROID_HOME}/tools/bin/sdkmanager "platform-tools" "platforms;android-${ANDROID_COMPILE_SDK}"

I think the problem in setup-android-sdk script. How could I change it? I just don't undertand how it works. I understand, that this is because of Java 11, javax was removed. But if I removing setup-android-sdk script from yml file, there is No more errors (but no compiled apk too). Please help

This question is not duplicate! And should be reopened

I think your real question is not how to upgrade your _CI pipeline_, but how to upgrade your Java app (and build) from Java8 to Java11. Can you build your app locally (not in CI pipeline) with Java 11? — sytech, Dec 14 '21 at 18:38
I found the solution. The beginnig of "yml" file is: image: openjdk:11-jdk variables: ANDROID_COMPILE_SDK: "31" ANDROID_BUILD_TOOLS: "32.0.0" SDK_TOOLS: "7583922" # from https://developer.android.com/studio/#command-tools — Vladimir Fisher, Dec 16 '21 at 14:55
before_script: - wget --quiet --output-document=android-sdk.zip https://dl.google.com/android/repository/commandlinetools-linux-${SDK_TOOLS}_latest.zip - unzip -q android-sdk.zip -d android-sdk-linux - rm android-sdk.zip - export ANDROID_HOME=$PWD/android-sdk-linux - export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/ - android-sdk-linux/cmdline-tools/bin/sdkmanager --sdk_root=${ANDROID_HOME} --update - echo y | android-sdk-linux/cmdline-tools/bin/sdkmanager --sdk_root=${ANDROID_HOME} "platforms;android-${ANDROID_COMPILE_SDK}" "build-tools;${ANDROID_BUILD_TOOLS}" — Vladimir Fisher, Dec 16 '21 at 14:56
This question is exactly the same as my question. It is not a duplicate of the question in reference and it should be re-opened. The same error occurs in my environment upgrading to Java 11 from Java 8 in gitlab and I created a pipeline with the comments above but it still fails with the same error when accepting the license agreement in the CI script. — Nexus7_2012, Jan 07 '22 at 16:47
