Android Build.gradle Error: Parseerror At [row,col]:[65,9] Message: Expected Start Or End Tag Affected Modules: App

build.gradle: Android build.gradle shows following error ERROR: ParseError at [row,col]:[65,9] Message: expected start or end tag Affected Modules: app

Solution 1:

I got the same error, and the wrong character was found in the [row, col] position of the AndroidManifest.xml, not build.gradle

Solution 2:

I got this same error, and finally I found that there is error in Mainfest.xml file

<serviceandroid:name=".onboarding.httpserver.HttpService"android:exported="false"
        ></service>>

you see, there are two >> after /service. which is wrong. After I fix this error, this message is disappear

Solution 3:

<layoutxmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"android:layout_width="match_parent">

For me was because I inserted layout width in the layout view from a xml file.

Solution 4:

I got the same error similar one like

Message: expected startorend tag
Affected Modules: app
[row, cal] 17,17

I forget an unnecessary /> characters in Manifest. Try to clean if any one has it.

Solution 5:

I got a Commented line in manifest file, when i removed the commented line and build the gradle file then the error is solved.
