Hi @LSDsl,

The error you're encountering suggests that there is an issue with the C compiler (armv7a-linux-androideabi16-clang) being unable to create an executable file. Can you please ensure that the user running the build process has the necessary permissions to create executable files in the specified directories?

If there is no permission issue, I would request you to attach the full log dump here for me to look further into this.

script running from root. how I can create full log dump?

Just add set -x at the beginning of the script. Although I'm not sure if the logs generated will help me debug it any further.

I'm able to run the same script without any issues, you'll probably need to try this on another system. The error above is not specific to setting up ffmpeg decoder or ExoPlayer.

Closing this issue as we are unable to assist with this issue as it relates to a generic Linux error, which is outside our area of expertise.

Hi @LSDsl,

I was able to reproduce the error when trying to build ffmpeg.

You can find the actual reason for the failure when you go to the end of config log file in ffbuild. From the jni folder where you're executing the command, you can check the log file at ffmpeg/ffbuild/config.log.

Please let me know the error you see there and may be we can debug this further. Thank you for your patience.
