ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "com.google.android.gms.measurement.AppMeasurement"

[twelvel...@gmail.com]

I have not integrated with firebase, but I'm getting a warning about a firebase class missing.

Hello, 

Thank you for contacting us. I would need some additional information to proceed further. Would you be able to provide us a sample project of your implementation where the crash is reproducible with the steps to reproduce? Also, can you provide us the complete crash logs and device logs so we can debug further? Additionally, can you confirm if you're able to replicate the crash with our sample apps by changing the dependency?

Regards,

Thanks for the follow-up. I attached the logcat.

I tried the sample banner app,  but that project compiles with firebase:

compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-ads:11.0.0'

My project compiles with ads or ads-lite:

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-lite:11.0.4'

I'm working on a reproducible project.

Also, it's a warning not a crash. The app doesn't crash and I still get ads.

Thank you

I have the same issue banner ad is showing and working but app getting crashed when i am using viewpager in activity

[twelvel...@gmail.com]

I reproduced the error with the BannerExample.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Remove the following line from the project build.gradle file: classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.1.0'

2) Remove the following line from the end of the app build.gradle file: apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

3) Remove the following line in the app build.gradle file: compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-ads:11.0.0'

4) Add the following line to dependencies in the app build.gradle: compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads-lite:11.0.4'

5) Build the project.

6) Run the app on a device or emulator (I used Nexus 6 Google API 25)

7) View the logcat for the exception warning.

Hello,

I have the same issue but a little bit stranger. I had an account on add mobs for testing the ads from my application and is working perfectly. The problem appears when I changed the AdUnitId with the associated account for my application. I tried to changed it again with the ids from my test account and is working again... can you help me with this? I can`t publish my app because the ads are not working on the associated account for the application.

Thanks, 

Alexandru Filip

Hi Bharani, can you please provide details on what version of the Google Play Services library this will be fixed in?

I am still seeing it in Google Play Services 11.4.0 which is the latest as of 17-SEP-2017.

William

[Bharani Cherukuri (Mobile Ads SDK Team)]

Hello William, 

Thank you for getting back to the support. This issue has been fixed on the latest version of the SDK. I was not able to reproduce the issue with our sample apps. If you're still seeing the issue, could you provide us the detailed steps to reproduce the issue with our sample apps, so we can take a look? 

Are you experiencing any issues with the ad serving or noticing any crashes? If yes, could you provide us the complete stack trace, as this will help us investigate the issue further?

Bharani,

I'm not going to burn time attempting to reproduce it in the sample apps. 

It still occurs with 11.4.0. 

It appears to be an intermittent issue, so I suspect it depends upon something like the creative that is delivered. So perhaps you need to spend a bit more time attempting to reproduce.

I'm not noticing any obvious issues with ad serving. Nor experiencing any crashes.

William

Bharani, I totally understand. But my budget is burnt.

I am not doing anything unusual. I am creating and displaying a banner and occasionally an interstitial at game end. 

 

You have a full stacktrace, and you have the source code that is generating that warning.

William

Hello William, 

I apologize for the confusion. This issue has been fixed but it did not make to the latest SDK release. We currently do not have an ETA for which release this fix is targeted to. Please follow our release history page for more updates.
