#    List as sections
#
#    You can define all the "list" as [section:key].
#    Each line will be considered as a option to the list.
#    Let's take [app] / source.exclude_patterns.
#    Instead of doing:
#
#[app]
#source.exclude_patterns = license,data/audio/*.wav,data/images/original/*
#
#    This can be translated into:
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns]
#license
#data/audio/*.wav
#data/images/original/*
#


#    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#    Profiles
#
#    You can extend section / key with a profile
#    For example, you want to deploy a demo version of your application without
#    HD content. You could first change the title to add "(demo)" in the name
#    and extend the excluded directories to remove the HD content.
#
#[app@demo]
#title = My Application (demo)
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns@demo]
#images/hd/*
#
#    Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:
#
#buildozer --profile demo android debug

Someone please help me with this error. I need it fixed for my project, please.😥

[AndreMiras]

Why don't you add a main.py to start with? 😅

[struckchure]

In my app directory, there's main.py
Project structure

• .buildozer
• App
  main.py
  main.kv

[AndreMiras]

You can come un Discord support channel and share the result of a ls -l there :)

[struckchure]

• Project
  • App
    • .buildozer
    • main.py
    • main.kv

That's my project structure, and am running the buildozer from the App directory.

Please tell me how to debug this error, it's a school project, please.

For anybody else, its the period in the path
https://github.com/Android-for-Python/Android-for-Python-Users#build-failure-no-mainpyo

The project is in site-packages which is the base issue.
