Answer 1

This is a very generic error, it could mean a lot of things.

One thing to check is that you have buildozer's dependencies installed...in particular, I think the lack of a jdk (and javac) can cause this. Do you have these?

Answer 2

I recently faced this error and from github found that it happened because google has updated their sdk version to 24.So my quick fix in buildozer was to set following property in buildozer.spec and my app worked fine afterwards.

# (int) Android SDK version to use
android.sdk = 24
