Hello, can you solve this problem?

[hackalog]

Looks like garbage (unicode character?) in the first line of your buildozer.spec file

[tanakanc]

but in the file.spec
the first line showed [app]

I tried change something in it such as [myapp] or test[app]

the error showed in the same way with new texts like
'[myapp]\n'
'test [app]\n'

It's a unicode encoding issue. Whatever editor you are using is adding a Byte Order Mark.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3255993/how-do-i-remove-%C3%AF-from-the-beginning-of-a-file

suggested workaround: use a different editor, or fix the encoding issues within whatever you are using.

Thank you very much. it is helpful

[tanakanc]

Finally, even though this problem was solved, but the root cause of my problem is that buildozer cannot run on window TT

[hackalog]

@tanakanc can you close this issue?

[tanakanc]

Sorry, I am newbie. How can I close ? I am not the person who created this issue?

[ghost]

it's fine @tanakanc you can't, @AnkitMArtin needs to close it (or one of the maintainers)

[hackalog]

Whoop. My bad. Sorry for the noise!
