I met the same issue. I removed all the files under directory bin with "rm bin/*",
and run "ant reinstall" again. Then it worked.

By the way, my android version is 1.5_r2, and OS is Kubuntu 9.04.

Adding a png file to res/drawable created same problem to me in my program (i.e it
suddenly stopped working).

Following along the lines of the comment given by Diego003 it helped fixed the
problem. However I tried rm -rf bin/* and not rm bin/*.

Not sure if just doing rm bin/* would have helped. I didn't give it a shot because
bin just contains the final apk file while the dependent binary files are in its
subfolders.

Are you the problem isn't just that the app code didn't get rebuilt after changing
the resources?  It looks like the app is trying to use the new drawable as a layout
resource:

E/AndroidRuntime( 9340): Caused by: android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException:

net.haltcondition.ex.Hello.Hello.onCreate(Hello.java:13)

Here are the resources:

Package Group 0 id=127 packageCount=1 name=net.haltcondition.ex.Hello

   type 0 configCount=0 entryCount=0

d=0x00000002 (s=0x0008 r=0x00)
         (string) "Hello"

So this was the first drawable resource added to the app, and drawables are scanned
first so it got assigned the resource ID that the layout resource previously had.

I'm seeing this same problem:

E/AndroidRuntime( 1046): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity
ComponentInfo{com.example.hellomapview/com.example.hellomapview.HelloMapActivity}:
android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: File res/drawable/red.png from xml
type layout resource ID #0x7f020000

I have a portion of code that tries to access my PNG files within res/drawable:
code:
  icon = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.red);
directory:
  $> ls res/drawable/
  blue.png  red.png

Commenting out the line isn't good enough - I have to remove the drawable directory
completely for things to work.

I added a png image to be used as an icon for the application. When debugged and
installed, the icon appeared fine on the device, but the application wouldn't start
and it raised a "resource not found" exception for the image. Deleting the contents
of the gen/ and bin/ directories does solve the problem.
I've also experienced this problem when I changed the xml layout files a few times
during development. The application sometimes raises runtime exceptions about missing
widgets or wrong IDs that are neither missing nor wrong. And again, deleting the
contents or gen/ and bin/ solves the problem.
This really needs to be fixed since it drove me crazy to see that my application
wasn't working and my code was perfectly fine. It took me a while to find this page
and figure out what I should do to fix it.

I'm using SDK 1.6 r1 and Ubuntu 8.04.

I was able to solve this problem. The activity name in my manifest was not consistent
with my class hierarchy. Specifically, I had the following in AndroidManifest.xml

    <activity android:name=".HelloMapActivity" android:label="@string/app_name">

However, there was no HelloMapActivity in my src/ directory (there was a class that
refined Activity, but it was not called HelloMapActivity). Thus, Android was looking
in the wrong place for my res/drawables. I imagine this is something Eclipse would
take care of, but I'm not using Eclipse.

I met the same problem too, I can't get drawable, it gave me some error message just like below:

I am 1000% percent sure I have copied home_screen_bg.jpg to drawable folder.
by the way, this problem only happend in version that is less than 1.6
I don't know why? But I wanna know why?
any help?

I recently started developing, and stumbled upon the same problem.

However, I think it's related to the following output from "ant":

{

compile:
    [javac] F:\android-sdk-windows\platforms\android-4\ant\ant_rules_r2.xml:255: warning: 'includeantruntime' was not set, defaulting to build.sysclasspath=last; set to false for repeatable builds
    [javac] Compiling 1 source file to E:\dev\android\YoAndroid\bin\classes

}

To solve "android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: Resource ID ..." Exception you may want to create a folder called "drawable" under res folder and copy the png/image files. Do a clean and build again. This worked for me.

I see this problem only when I try to rut it on 1.5 platform.

Closing this bug as obsolete. I suspect the real solution is to do a clean build, as hackbod suggested.

I just recently hit this mine again on an Android 5.1

I meet same error
