FAQs

  1. How can I resolve an error encountered after running the "setup.py" script while installing cocos?

    To resolve an error encountered after running the “setup.py” script while installing cocos, check whether you have Python 3 installed. If you do have Python 3 installed, uninstall it and try running setup.py again.

  2. The application throws keystore file not found error. How do I fix this?

    keystore file is used to digitally sign an Android application and hence, it is not provided with the project. One must create their own keystore file using the Android KeyTool which comes with the Android Studio in order to sign the APK.

  3. How to fix missing google-services.json file error?

    Put google-services.json file in app folder. It is there in Firebase console after the app project has been created.

  4. How to enable the Build variant option in the Build menu?

    The Build variant option is enabled only when the module's gradle file is opened.
