Firebase Plugin not compatible with MABS 10 (Android Issue)

Dang Tuan

Question

Hi, I've downloaded the Firebase mobile Sample and going to test it on my Android phone, but there is an error when generating Android apk.

Error: “There was an issue generating the app. At least one Cordova plugin uses Android Support Library components, which are not compatible with MABS 10 and onwards…”

Please suggest, Thanks

Hi Dang,

I’d suggest upgrading the Firebase plugin to the latest version to align with newer MABS versions.

Also, could you share:

Which plugin version you’re currently using?

The Forge link to the plugin?

That will help narrow down if it’s a version compatibility issue.

Thanks

Hi @Dang Tuan ,

The Firebase Mobile Sample includes a Cordova Firebase plugin that still depends on the legacy Android Support Library (com.android.support.*).

Starting with MABS 10, OutSystems no longer supports Android Support Library components. MABS 10+ requires plugins to use AndroidX instead.

This is a plugin compatibility issue, not a problem with your environment or device.

Solution:

Replace the Firebase plugin used in the sample with a version that supports AndroidX
Rebuild the app after updating the plugin

Example: Cloud Messaging Plugin (Firebase) - Overview (O11) | OutSystems
