Execution failed for task ':app:checkReleaseAarMetadata'

Question

I'm trying to build expo app for android using eas cli by running the command: eas build --platform android. It fails at 'Ran gradlew' command in the eas dashboard with the following error log

[stderr] FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
[stderr] * What went wrong:
[stderr] Execution failed for task ':app:checkReleaseAarMetadata'.
[stderr] > A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.CheckAarMetadataWorkAction

[stderr] BUILD FAILED in 2m 57s

and here is my android/build.gradle

buildscript {
    ext {
        buildToolsVersion = "29.0.3"
        minSdkVersion = 21
        compileSdkVersion = 30
        targetSdkVersion = 30
    }

Try to navigate to `android/build.gradle` and change `compileSdkVersion` to `30` — Hend El-Sahli, Dec 24 '22 at 21:00

file: /home/expo/.gradle/caches/transforms-3/cfea03dc6ed1fbdd623bca4e7a73327b/transformed/browser-1.4.0/META-INF/com/android/build/gradle/aar-metadata.properties.

first open this file and see like this

aarFormatVersion=1.0
aarMetadataVersion=1.0
minCompileSdk=21   <------------this is you add in your file[aar-metadata.properties.]
minCompileSdkExtension=0
minAndroidGradlePluginVersion=1.0.0

Hope this will help you
