    We're still running into this issue while building for Android on Jenkins with Unity 2021.3.19f1.

    Can you please confirm the status of this issue?

    It turned out that logging to /dev/stdout caused the issue. As a workaround remove that command line parameter. See more info in the Unity forum thread "exception-occurred-inside-beedriver.1139905" (can't post direct link here unfortunately)

    Perhaps another datapoint, we only see this issue when building Test Player builds (i.e. Standalone test player builds for running Unity tests).

    We get this error when building on Mac via shell script invoked by Jenkins. Strangely the issue does not occur if I start the shell script manually. It seems to be somehow related to how the Jenkins client runs. It has the same user though (the same I am logged in when manually invoking the shell script)

    How to reproduce the issue on Unity 2021.2.0 - 2021.2.15 versions:

    1. Create a new empty project
    2. Add a build player Editor script so it can be run by CI
    3. Add Google's External Dependency Manager (tested versions 1.2.167 and 1.2.168)
    4. Some assets needs to be added. Based on the testing some assets have to be in the resources folder and some outside that folder accessing files, otherwise builds work as expected
    a. An easy way to test is for example adding either SRDebugger https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/gui/srdebugger-console-tools-on-device-27688 or Easy Roads https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/modeling/easy-roads-mesh-gen-43327 asset
    5. Try run either iOS build or Android build with IL2CPP backend triggered by a CI service

    Expected result:
    Build should be created successfully

    What happens:
    Error: Exception occurred inside BeeDriver: System.IO.IOException: Sharing violation on path

    With an exact same project. if you run a build either in the editor or run it from terminal with a same build command as the CI system does (commanding it even from your own work machine to a remote build machine) the build works as expected.

    With this error Unity 2021.2.x versions are basically unusable for us so this definitely needs fixing before going to LTS.
