Cannot run "Hello Android XR" app in XR Emulator

I've recently installed Android Studio Meerkat | 2024.3.1 Canary 7 (for macOS Sequoia), then downloaded and configured a Virtual XR Device for emulation process. The XR Emulator works fine, as expected. Google has posted a Kotlin sample project called Hello Android XR on the GitHub. When running the project on the XR Emulator, the following error occurs:

Error loading build artifacts from: /Users/swift/Desktop/
android-xr/app/build/intermediates/apk_ide_redirect_file/debug/
createDebugApkListingFileRedirect/redirect.txt

Question – How to fix this error?

Solution

  • AGP dependency

    This XR app requires you to download Android Gradle Plugin 8.9.0-alpha07. When you use Gradle 8.7.3, it will result in the above issue. If you update the AGP dependency to, at least, version 8.9.0, the Hello Android XR app will start without errors.
