Question

For this i deleted the .apk file from the bin folder and after run the app using eclipse. Generally in this case .apk file is generated. but here it is not generated. but .class file are generated.

Answer 1

I got this errors in 2 cases-

1. When I changed the package name of the app (In that case, uninstall old and run it again)

2. When you install this APK from Gmail in < Android 2.2 phones.

Since you are getting this in Eclipse, did you change the package name or edited in Manifest?

Answer 2

Try: Project -> Clean.
Or, try: Right click on project -> Android Tools -> Fix Project Properties. In the same menu you can change the package project.
