If in the DOS window of buildserver.cmd you see on the very first 2 lines something like this

“Running build server…”
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xms512m -Xmx512m

it’s a matter of memory, because you are using an old version; in fact in the new version you should see
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m

If it’s already the last version the reason is another one and for me it’s hard to help you

Hello nandu_aeer

First, ensure you have not tripped-up on any of these issues:

https://www.professorcad.co.uk/appinventortips#TipsApk Cannot Build/Install/Run APK

I also try last version of app inventor but same error

5

I also try the blank project but same error

6

So probably the error is not related to the Offline version and you might have the same issue also on the online version

7

No sir just I try online version its working perfectly I build apk successfully

8

1- is it the only App you cannot build? Did you try a different one?
2- Did you check if the environment variables are well set
for example JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_251
or similar?

9

I have set like this
JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk.8.0_251

10

what about the first question? did it ever work with other apps?

11

No sir like this 1.8.0_251

12

jdk or jre?

13

I set Jdk 1.8.0_251

14

i set JRE, the runtime of java, i don’t know if this can be the problem… give it a try…
but you didn’t answer the question: were you ever able to build an App with your Offline version?

15

Sir I set JAVE_HOME C:\programFile\java\jre also but give error
Recently I format my pc and after I downloaded new offline versions of app inventor and set all variable setting befor formatting my pc i build apk successfully and I also try to build extension its building successfully. now problem is apk building faild

16

I hope someone will help you… I’m not able to suggest more…

Just check if these Variables are also set
ClassPath = %JAVA_HOME%\Lib
_JVA_OPTIONS = -Xms1024M

17

Yes sir i set like this only
ClassPath = %JAVA_HOME%\Lib
_JAVA_OPTIONS = -Xms1024M

Hello nandu - so it’s your private build of App Inventor on your desktop. There is a better forum for that:
https://community.appinventor.mit.edu/c/open-source-development/10

nandu -

  1. Works on online version :heavy_check_mark:
  2. Works on AppyBuilder Offline :heavy_check_mark:
  3. Doesn't work on your Offline version :heavy_multiplication_x:

What does that tell you?
Did you ask for help in the correct forum I gave you a link to? :owl:
