Unity FileNotFoundException "launcherTemplate.gradle" when building for Android

When using Unity 2021.3.6f1 I get a an error saying launcherTemplate.gradle file cannot be found. I don't see it referenced in the project anywhere.
I tried using a custom gradle file, modify existing gradle files but nothing has done the trick so far.

It looks like it's related to Unity Hub not installing Android build tooling properly.
From https://forum.unity.com/threads/cant-build-quest-game.1307529/
Unity Hub installer neglects to install the tools directory to this path:
c:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2021.3.6f1\Editor\Data\Tools\
Copying over the directory from another recent Unity Editor installation will allow one to make Quest/Android builds again.

Not able to run my Firebase Unity App

I just wanted to test my Firebase implementation and realized that I get an error saying that Unity can't find the generate_xml_from_google_services_json.exe even though it is where it should be.

How to fix SQLLiteDesignTimeServices in OS X for visual studio code and asp.net 5 ? EF7 related

On my MBP, I used Yeoman aspnet-generator template to create an ASP.net 5 template web application.
I am able to run the web application and view the pages, but unable to register or create login using the standard template.
Tried to run the following command:
dnx ef database update
The following is the error I get
ystem.TypeLoadException: Could not load type 'Microsoft.Data.Entity.Scaffolding.SqliteDesignTimeServices, EntityFramework.Sqlite.Design' from assembly ''.

Add to your project.json the following dependency:
"EntityFramework.Sqlite.Design": "7.0.0-rc1-final"
And then please run:
dnu restore
then
dnx ef database update
should work.

Xamarin Binding "Wrapper type '' is missing its native ObjectiveC Class

I am trying to bind an external accessory MSR SDK to Xamarin. Note, this is ON the device. It does not work in the simulator at all. I keep getting this error:
Wrapper type 'iMagProII.IMag' is missing its native ObjectiveC class 'IMag'.
Here is my .cs with my linker flags:

Any help on getting this library bound would be greatly appreciated. I have been banging my head at it for hours now.

This occurs when the class IMag can't be found in the final executable.
The most common reasons for this are:
A typo in the class name.
The native library does not include the architecture you're building for. For instance the native library needs to contain i386 code to run in the simulator. You can use the lipo tool to list the architectures in the native library:
$ lipo -info /path/to/libiMagSDK.a
You also need to know the architecture you're using for the app, you can check this in the project's iOS Build settings, on the Advanced page. Select one that the native library includes.
The native library in the binding project depends on another native library which is not in the binding project (and the IMag class is in that other library). All non-platform dependencies must be included.
The native library is incorrectly built, and doesn't include the class you're trying to bind (this is not frequent, but I've still seen it several times). You can use the nm tool to check what's included in a native library:
$ nm -arch armv7 /path/to/libiMagSDK.a | grep IMag
0x0000f00d S _OBJC_CLASS_$_IMag
[other results]
The above result would indicate that the class is included in the native library.

csproj from VS2008 fail to compile with mono xbuild

Some csproj compile, but this one doesn't, here is the output of xbuild /t:detailed :

Anyone has an idea ? Thanks ?

This might already be fixed in svn. I changed that code to use regex some time back. Could you try this with a mono daily build [1]? Or just file a bug with the project file and i'll check it.
http://mono.ximian.com/daily/

It's probably a bug in xbuild. File a bug with a test case to get it fixed:
