Punya App Building/Downloading Error

Open Source Development
1

Hi, I am experiencing two different errors when interacting with the MIT App Inventor Punya subproject.

First, I am having trouble building the Android App (.apk). When using Punya, I try to use the Build < Android App (.apk) dropdown and I receive an error pop-up that says Server error: could not build target. Please try again later!

Second, I am having an error when I try to build Punya locally. I followed these steps but used the Punya repository. I can build and run app inventor, but running into errors when running the build server. Here is a portion of the error after I run ant RunLocalBuildServer:

You may need to try an ant clean if you've switched branches recently as we have a few different Google libraries floating around the code base.

It looks like ant clean got me a little further in the build but it now fails on the YaClientApp step. Do you know how to fix this error?

Also, do you know why the Build < Android App (.apk) produces an error pop-up that says Server error: could not build target. Please try again later!?

5

You'll need to increase the -Xmx parameter in the YaClientApp target if you're running out of memory.

You need to run ant RunLocalBuildServer to run the build server in a separate terminal. You may also need to adjust your firewall settings so that it can listen on port 9990.

Increasing the -Xmx parameter in the YaClientApp target worked!

7

Downloading the APK on https://punya.appinventor.mit.edu/ still produces the server error

8

If you're running locally, you need to run a local copy of the buildserver to be able to build your apps.

9

It works when I run locally using the buildserver, but doesn't work on the public website version

10

We've been having some infrastructure related issues on our end that are affecting buildservers. I'll take a look.

I am getting this issue when I run it. It seems different from what bcapuzzo is getting.

I think I've identified the issue on the production build servers and I'm working on a fix.

13

Any news on this fix?

14

Unfortunately I have had a lot of deadlines so I am yet to get to implementing a solution.

15

Okay, please tell me when you can get it out.

I've deployed the update to the Punya server. The new version is nb198-punya6 and master branch has been updated accordingly.
