unable to build app on appcelerator studio

Question

I am not able to build android app project on appcelerator studio.

I am using Titanium sdk 5.1.1.GA the console just stops after extracting module resources, see below:

Answer 1

I'm not sure why the build would get stuck extracting the modules. Try cleaning your project, then building again. You might get lucky.

It could also be your Node.js version. We use a pretty old Node module called "adm-zip" for extracting zip files, so it's possible it's being finicky. Try using Node.js 4.x or 0.12.
