[android-developers] ClassNotFoundException crash reports from Market
Hi all, I'm seeing some strange crash reports in Android Market and I can't really tell how this could be caused by our application. The reason is always ClassNotFoundException or NoClassDefFoundError. The exact traces come in various flavors and they have happened for a total of ~100 times - here's one (reported 37 times): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate application com.company.product.MyApplication: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.company.product.MyApplication in loader dalvik.system.PathClassLoader[/data/app-private/com.company.product-1.apk] at android.app.ActivityThread$PackageInfo.makeApplication(ActivityThread.java:649) at android.app.ActivityThread.handleBindApplication(ActivityThread.java:4232) at android.app.ActivityThread.access$3000(ActivityThread.java:125) at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:2071) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4627) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:521) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:868) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:626) at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.company.product.MyApplication in loader dalvik.system.PathClassLoader[/data/app-private/com.company.product-1.apk] at dalvik.system.PathClassLoader.findClass(PathClassLoader.java:243) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:573) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:532) at android.app.Instrumentation.newApplication(Instrumentation.java:942) at android.app.ActivityThread$PackageInfo.makeApplication(ActivityThread.java:644) ... 11 more We've tested the same .apk on a number of devices and we've never encountered issues like this - what could cause such issues in the first place - custom ROMs / broken devices / something that we're doing wrong? :/ Tauno -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

No, I don't start any external activities. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
