FirebaseInitProvider Crash

[Elias O. R.]

Hi !

I'm trying to use Firebase Messaging to get Push notifications,

I followed the tutorials in Firebase web, but It crash when I try to run the app.

The log file loos like:

E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
                  Process: es.in2.otr.app.im, PID: 12048

What I have is:

build.gradle (top-level):

dependencies {
 classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0-rc1'
 classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.0.0'

buidl.gradle (module-level):

...

compileSdkVersion 24
buildToolsVersion "24.0.2"

defaultConfig {
 applicationId 'es.in2.otr.app.im'
 minSdkVersion 16
 targetSdkVersion 24
 multiDexEnabled true}



dependencies {
 compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
 ...
 compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:9.4.0'
 ....
 }
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

For some who will ask, YES I have the applicationId in the file.

Is there any solutuion for this problem?

P.S: Yes , I tried to use version of firebase 9.0.0 / 9.0.2

Thanks!

[Doug Stevenson]

Elias,

Is any comment from this issue in Stack Overflow helpful?  It looks like the same stack trace.

Doug

[Elias O. R.]

Sorry for delay, I was on Holidays.

But no, there's no way to fix it.

I take a look to the famous "You got the applicationId? -> YES I got it."
I put the 2 SHA1 (debug, and release) on the firebase console, and downloaded again the json file.
I'm tested the 9.0.0 /9.2.0/9.4.0 versions of firebase-messaging.


And always is the same error.

[Doug Stevenson]

Elias, can you show your entire build.gradle, or at least all the dependencies you're referencing?  I am also curious what happens if you put in *only* the firebase-core dependency with google-services.json without coding to any specific Firebase feature.

As you can see I only import de firebase-messaging:9.4.0 library. I don't have any code , no service... etc referencing the library,

JSon File is under app module:



And the content of the google-services.json is:

          "client_type": 3

          "status": 2
        }
      }
    }
  ],
  "configuration_version": "1"
}

At least In the Firebase console I have set the 2 SHA1 fingerprints:




Finally as I said before, I dont have any type of code or service declarated on Manifest, just the import of the library. And here is the log file:

And just as "bonus track", I f dont compile any firebase library, I got the same problem.

Wel.. thats all..

I'm really stucked  on this :/


Thanks for all

Thanks for the info - your build.gradle looks good to me.  I don't think the dependency on Firebase messaging is having any effect on your app.  The google services plugin actually adds a core Firebase dependency to your app whether or not you declare any dependencies.  You can see that if you run ./gradlew androidDependencies to see everything that gets added to your app from any source.

Could you try one more thing?  Manually add the dependency "com.google.firebase:firebase-core:9.4.0" to your app to make sure it's at the latest version (in case the plugin didn't add that correctly for some reason).  The crash is happening in a ContentProvider that comes from firebase-core, and this gets invoked as soon as your app launches.

If that doesn't help, there are two things left:

1. Start with a bare project, add Firebase, and see if it launches OK.  Then gradually add in your other dependencies to see if anything interferes.  We need to identify the *minimal* conditions where this is happening for you.  There could be a conflict in one of your other dependencies.

2. If that doesn't yield any information, please log all this information in a bug report at https://firebase.google.com/support/contact/bugs-features/ and be sure to add a link to this conversation as a reference.  We'll make sure this gets routed to the right people.  But the most important thing is that we have a situation that we can reproduce on our own.

Thanks so much for sticking with this.  :-)

TEST 40.... :  adding jars.
    Adding all jars to project in 'lib' folder --> OK

As a resume,  first I tried to compile just firebase-messaging:9.4.0 , it crashed again. So I created a new Project as you recomended me.

I started to add library to library , and jar to jar.. but, All compiled perfect, and launched perfect. Just as remark,  I added In the exactly order I paste before.
So, right now .. I'm really lost.

I'll send as you told me a bug report to the link you gave to me.


Thanks for all the help. If I found some solution to my problem I'll post here for sure.

In your new project, did you also apply the google service plugin in the very first step?  Remember that adds a library dependency as well.

Yes I did, it was the first dependecy/library I add. :/

Just to know, and to move foward int he project..

Is there some workaround to Push notifications ?  I mean, some way to in client, Identify the push notification without the firebase library?

[Doug Stevenson]

Sorry, not that I know of.

[Elias O. R.]

No problem ^^
a lot of thanks for your time.

Just one more thing, I'm still reading  a lot about this, almost trying to find the solution.

It's possible that the problem comes por the 65K method limit? I had to set "multiDexEnabled true" and compiled  "compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1' "

But nothing more, can my problem be originated by the moment where is (I dont know how to explain it) compiled and "dexed" ?

Thanks!

If you are seeing the crash on a clean project with only the plugin applied, it's definitely not a problem with dex limit.  If you see the issue only after you apply many libraries, then I imagine it could possibly be a dex limit issue.

Hi @Elias O.R

As i see your gradle file, i think we use the same chat open source and i also face to this bug for a day.

I don't know it too late or not but finally, i find a solution for this.

Let check on your ImApp.java and disable function onConfigurationChanged() and everything will be find.

Hope this will help.

I have similar issue.

I'm doing some experiments with square/mortar library and had to override getSystemService() at class that extend Application:  

public Object getSystemService(String name) {
    if (TextUtils.equals(name, "appops")) { //this is workaround, i'm getting crash otherwise.
        return super.getSystemService(name);
    }
    return mortarScope.hasService(name) ? mortarScope.getService(name) : super.getSystemService(name);
}

Maybe someone knows better solution?
