Error message

${pkg}

What it means

This Resources.NotFoundException is thrown by the method that builds plugin Resources: when no InstalledAppInfo exists for the requested package, the library cannot add the plugin APK's asset path to a new AssetManager and throws NotFoundException(pkg) naming the missing package.

Solutions

1. Verify the package is installed: VirtualCore.get().getInstalledAppInfo(pkg, 0) != null before requesting its resources
2. Install the plugin first via VirtualCore.get().installPackage(apkPath) and use the returned InstalledAppInfo
3. Check the exact package name (case, suffixes) matches the installed plugin

Example fix

// before
Resources res = core.getResources("com.example.plugin"); // not installed
// after
InstalledAppInfo info = core.getInstalledAppInfo("com.example.plugin", 0);
Resources res = info != null ? core.getResources("com.example.plugin") : null;

InstalledAppInfo info = VirtualCore.get().getInstalledAppInfo(pkg, 0);
if (info == null) throw new IllegalStateException("Package not installed in VA: " + pkg);

try { Resources r = core.getResources(pkg); } catch (Resources.NotFoundException e) { /* fall back to host resources or prompt install */ }

When it happens

Trigger: Requesting resources for a package that was never installed into the virtual environment (getPackageInfo/install not done), or passing a misspelled/wrong package name to the resources lookup API.

Common situations: Launching or loading a plugin before awaiting the asynchronous install; stale package name after the plugin was uninstalled from the VA container; hard-coded package string mismatch.

Understand the failure class

Background: 'Could not be found', 'does not exist', 'not found in database': the resource-not-found family when an ID, slug, key, or URI lookup comes back empty — this error's family across 20 libraries.
