I created one android application project in eclipse and whenever I tried to run that application its throwing an error message saying AndroidManifest.xml file is missing. what is the reason for this ?

I am using eclipse with android-sdk and ADT version is 20. in SDK manager I installed android 2.2 API level only.. Is this is the problem for that error ?

Well, do you have an AndroidManifest.xml file within your project? – Dihedron 21/9, 2012 at 7:29

@mattquiros : Yes I have AndriodManifest.xml – Cornel 21/9, 2012 at 7:34

Try: Click on your project -> Refresh (F5) -> Go to "Project" in the menu bar -> Clean (and clean the project). If all else fails, restart eclipse. Let us know what happens next. – Dihedron 21/9, 2012 at 7:59

Delete bin folder in project and your library dependencies. Then re-run application.

hmm ... nothing new compared to earlier answers, is there? – Peadar 30/3, 2013 at 13:29

if your project is referencing other library projects, do the same for the library projects too. – Dortheydorthy 3/12, 2013 at 6:47

"Clean all" from Project menu achieved same results – Pilcomayo 17/7, 2014 at 20:19

you should clean and refresh your project once.

I was able to fix this by manually deleting the bin directory, as well as the gen directory, right clicking project and selecting Android Tools->Fix Project Properties, then using Project->Build All.

Restart your eclipse and make sure that build automatically checked. It worked for me all the time. Hope this helps some one.

I closed all projects that were unrelated with the one I was trying to run (right-click on project in Project Explorer and then selecting Close Project) and the problem magically disappeared (for no apparent reason). Then, even after I re-opened the closed projects, the problem did not come back.

I was having the same problem and didn't understand why - followed all deletes of /bin, /gen, fixing AVD's, etc, still to no avail.

The /bin got me thinking though -

I had previously used this advice to exclude /bin from the resource filters (in an effort to remove results from the search)....

I removed the filter for /bin and voila.....

Interesting this only affected me when I wanted to Debug or Run within Eclipse -- I could export a working APK without any problem, but debugging failed.

Hope this helps.
