apktool 2.0beta7 - copying unknown files/dirs failed when rebuilding

[Tomáš Koloušek]

Hi.

I tried to use v2.0 beta to llamalabs timesheet 1.2.7 (fc after update with apktool 1.5.2) . When rebuilding the apk without any changes, I got 'NoSuchFile exception altough the folder is normally presentunder 'unknown' folder of extracted application.

This was on Windows7, I noted the forward slash in the exception. The .apk file was build in dist folder, after manually including content of uknown folder and resigning the apk seems to be working.

Error displayed:

I can attach the original .apk file if needed for testing.

This was fixed a few days after the release of Beta 7. See this on-going bug for a similar discussion: https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=527

I solve this problem using the force parameter:

java -jar apktool_2.0.0rc4.jar b -f -o test.apk

My JVM:

java version "1.7.0_71"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_71-b14)

Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 24.71-b01, mixed mode, sharing)
