Found 2 versions of google-play-services.jar in the dependency list

Question

I know there's a couple of threads dealing with the same issue, but none of the solutions are working for me.

I am building an app that uses both the Google and the Facebook SDK. When launching Eclipse, I get this error message:

[2014-03-02 11:40:40 - ***] Found 2 versions of google-play-services.jar in the dependency list,

[2014-03-02 11:40:40 - ***] but not all the versions are identical (check is based on SHA-1 only at this time).

[2014-03-02 11:40:40 - ***] All versions of the libraries must be the same at this time.

[2014-03-02 11:40:40 - ***] Versions found are:

[2014-03-02 11:40:40 - ***] Jar mismatch! Fix your dependencies

I tried Android Tools ---> "Add support library..." with all three projects (Facebook SDK, Google SDK, My-App project), but the error remains. A lot of answers tell people to delete one jar or copy/paste jars ... but I'm fairly new to this and I don't wanna break anything.

What's the best way to go here?

Answer 1

The above problem comes when multiple versions of the same jar file is used in the project (including the library project if added).The best practice is to delete the previous jar files and add a fresh updated same jar file in all the corresponding projects.
