Compile Error: Error generating final archive: java.io.FileNotFoundException: ..\bin\resources.ap_ does not exist.

So as the title says, this is the error I got when compiling a project I build for about a year ago.

Compile Error: Error generating final archive: java.io.FileNotFoundException: ..\bin\resources.ap_ does not exist.

Cause:
In strings.xml I had the following format arguments "%s/%s"
ex. <string name="template_user_agent">"%s/%s (Linux; Android)"</string>

Now, format arguments had to be changed to "%1$s/%2$s"

Then, the error should dissapear.

I found the solution from the following pages.
