the build is successful. then

tns platform remove android

tns build android --bundle --env.uglify --env.aot --release --key-store-path <path-to-your-keystore> --key-store-password <your-key-store-password> --key-store-alias <your-alias-name> --key-store-alias-password <your-alias-password> --compileSdk=25

Hi @vasyliv, I tested your case, however, was unable to recreate this problem on my side. Make sure that you have installed Android SDK Build-tools in the Android SDK Manager, for the needed API level.

[michael-vasyliv]

@tsonevn could you add a list of versions that you have?

[tsonevn]

Hi @vasyliv, I am attaching ScreenShot of the Build-tools list, which I have on the machine.

@tsonevn thanks for your answers. The problem isn`t actual (however I still can't build the demo to API 25, but a can build other projects like https://github.com/NativeScript/template-drawer-navigation-ng etc.)

Hi @vasyliv, Did you try to specify the API level as follows: tns build android --bundle --env.uglify --env.aot --release --key-store-path <path-to-your-keystore> --key-store-password <your-key-store-password> --key-store-alias <your-alias-name> --key-store-alias-password <your-alias-password> --compileSdk=25.0.0. There are multiple releases for API level 25, and if you do not set up the exact one, the build might not execute correctly.

@tsonevn thanks for your help, yes I can build the demo with

tns build android --bundle --env.uglify --env.aot --release --key-store-path <path-to-your-keystore> --key-store-password <your-key-store-password> --key-store-alias <your-alias-name> --key-store-alias-password <your-alias-password> --compileSdk=25.0.0

i guess the problem was that i have tried --compileSdk=25.
