Not entirely sure this is the corrent place to put this question, feel free to move it.

I've tried to develop a couple of small android applications and sometimes (quite often)
I accidentally select Run in the eclipse menu when in a resource file.

This leads to that a file is created with name main.out.xml (if I'm currently working in
main.xml). If I try to build the project and launch it fron a .java file after this I get an
error:

Unparsed aapt error(s)! Check the console for output. <ProjectName> Unknown Android Packaging Problem

The "Console" tab in eclipse does not contain any errors at all. Is there a specific android console that I can't find?

How can I solve this issue? It does not help to delete the out-file or regenerate R.java.

(Forgive me if this is a totally n00b-question, but I can´t find any could information about it on the internet and I am a .Net developer and has not worked with java nor eclipse in 5 years or so.)

Seemed to happen when I tried to create an .xml file. I have deleted that file and the problem persists.


The link below helped me fix the error.

Tried that without any luck, any more suggestions?

Sometimes I had this error too. After all bugs are fixed the Error remains there. I just deleted this error and tried to run it again. Does this work for you?

Found the soloution for this, Go to Project -> Clean in the Eclipse menu and it will work again.
(Delete any *.xml.out files that has been generated before)

Ahhh, after about 3 hours of mucking about with this you just saved me.

Thanks dhanjel

thanks dude =)

This worked for me. Easy-peasy.

I've only just started trying to get to grips with development with Android today, no real java experience which seems to be the one that would be most useful, although I've not come across any issues yet - it's all been going well.

Anyway, just thought I would register to say Thankyou for that bit of information, I could have been looking for problems for hours otherwise

ty dhanjel
you just saved my nerves.

NICE dhanjel !!!!
