OTA package build fail

donfreiling — Wed, 16 Sep 2015 14:18:58 GMT

Dev Board: Sabre SD quad Rev. B

BSP: Android L5.0.0_1.0.0

Build Env: Ubuntu-64bit 14.04

I'm following these instructions from the FAQ to build and OTA package:

30 How do I build an OTA package?

The Android build system supports auto generation of update.zip. It can generate the updater_script and all system.img files.

You can use the following command to generate an OTA package.

$ make dist

For example, you use this command to build sabresd_6dq product after the build finish.

$ make PRODUCT=sabresd_6dq-eng dist -j4

You can find a few packages in the following path for the OTA update.zip to do the OTA and make a different package.

• out/dist/sabresd_6dq-ota-eng.xxx.zip

• out/target/proudct/sabresd_6dq/sabresd_6dq-ota-eng.xxx.zip

The package we used before R13.1 was update.zip. In this package, however, everything is automatically generated.

This fails while packaging the target files. This is the error I get:

Package target files: out/target/product/sabresd_6dq/obj/PACKAGING/target_files_intermediates/sabresd_6dq-target_files-20150518.zip

Package symbols: out/target/product/sabresd_6dq/sabresd_6dq-symbols-20150518.zip

Package apps: out/target/product/sabresd_6dq/sabresd_6dq-apps-20150518.zip

Dist: out/dist/sabresd_6dq-apps-20150518.zip

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Don,

I think you should try below command to build otapackage.

make otapckage PRODUCT=sabresd_6dq-eng -j4
