Hi guyz
while packaging for Android using UE4.20 I got this error

I have the same problem since update to 4.20.3. I’m using binary version and seems no solution for this! let me know if you found a solution for this please. In 4.19.2 worked fine, just in the 4.20.3 I’m not able to package the same project!

I struggle with the same issue. 4.20.3 , launcher version. I’ve uninstalled 4.20.3 an reinstalled including AndroidWorks. Yet no success. It’s requesting an .so file in a folder that does not even exist (\Binaries\Android\ ). A normal new empty mobile project works to fine to compile and deploy.

I made some progress and got my project, with the same error, to work at the moment, have a look here: Can't make APK without compiled .so - Programming & Scripting - Unreal Engine Forums
