Based on first post where Python complains that it cannot access directory:
shutil.Error: [('/mnt/f/helo/.buildozer/applibs', '/mnt/f/helo/.buildozer/android/app/_applibs', "[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/mnt/f/helo/.buildozer/android/app/_applibs'")]So your project is inside F:\helo\ at Windows side.
Just grant full control access to folder F:\helo\ at Windows to your current Windows user.
If your “WindowsUsername” is not listed in your directory properties, click Edit button and add it first.
solve it… chmod 777 -R /home/YOURWSLNAME/.buildozer/
@Marcinosoft Thank you very much . You saved my time and you knew the solution. But, if this not working for you please try to know if you are missing other libraries. I have Windows 10, and Ubuntu VM - you shouldn’t use root to run buildozer
If someone would ever wonder, you can open root WSL directory on your windows by typing “cd ~” in ubuntu and next typing "explorer.exe . "
You’re wrong. Wanna proof of my Windows setup? I faced exactly same issue yesterday.
PS. I just reproduced it twice. Windows user require full access control to be able to pass shuil.py copy under Linux (in my case Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) by buildoizer. It may be significant, that I’m using WSL version 1 (not version 2). Why I’m using WSL v1 ? Because v2 require additional virtualization Windows features which are not compatible with Nox Android Emulator for example. How to switch between WSL 1 and 2 ?
@hladkky Fixed by installing libtool.
sudo apt-get install -y libtoolDo sudo su. Install the buildozer later
Permission problem probably from using root(sudo -s) while typing commands!
The second one is a different error and it says exactly what the problem is 😮
