    Android apk crashes on upgrade, works on uninstall old version/install new version

    I'm getting run time error on Android when updating my application to a new version of .apk using the new 2012.09.2. By updating, I'm installing the new .apk on top of the existing .apk.

    If I remove the previous version of the .apk and install the new version, it works. I lose all the saved data, but it works telling me that I've compiled the application correctly.

    Here is the stack trace using logcat when it crashes

    The original .apk was built with an older version of Eclipse SDK and Gideros 2012.8.* (can't remember the exact version)
    The new .apk is being built with the 2012.09.2 and for Android 4.2

    Any ideas?

      One thing I noticed is that the original installation created a symbolic link for the library
      /data/data/{myapp}/lib/libgideros.so -> /mnt/asec/{myapp}/lib/libgideros.so
      And the new .apk creates a concrete lib directory with a newer version of libgideros.so plus a whole lot more. When updating, it wasn't writing the new libraries through the symbolic link, so the other libraries were not being stored.

      UPDATE: this entry is wrong. Thy symbolic link gets removed and the new lib get created just fine. Something else is going wrong.

      UPDATE: The actual error is the failure to resolve JNI_OnLoad
