Help needed with Google’s cloud mobile backend sample
I recently set up the mobile backend starter for Android. Everything seemed to go smoothly during installation. But when I tried to run the Android client, I hit a snag.
It looks like some kind of array problem, but I can’t figure out where it’s coming from. I’ve gone through the sample project code, but I’m stumped.
Has anyone else run into this? Any ideas what might be causing it or how to fix it? I’m pretty new to mobile backend stuff, so I’m not sure if I missed a step somewhere.
hmm, interesting issue! have u tried clearing the app data and cache? sometimes that helps with weird errors. also, what version of the google cloud SDK are u using? might be worth checking if there’s an update available. keep us posted on what u find out!
i ran into somethin similar last week! turns out i forgot to set up the API credentials properly in the google cloud console. double-check that ur project ID and API key are correct in the Android client config. that fixed it for me. good luck!
I encountered a similar issue when working with the Google Cloud Mobile Backend sample. The error you’re seeing often stems from an empty configuration string. Make sure you’ve properly set up your backend in the Google Cloud Console and that all necessary environment variables are correctly defined in your project.
One thing to check is the ‘google-services.json’ file. Ensure it’s present in the correct directory and contains all the required information. Also, verify that you’ve enabled all the necessary APIs for your project in the Google Cloud Console.
If those steps don’t resolve the issue, try running the app in debug mode and set breakpoints around where the error occurs. This can help pinpoint exactly where the problem is originating. Debugging can be tedious, but it’s often the most effective way to solve these kinds of cryptic errors.
