Error archiving an obfuscated app

I am trying to obfuscate the android apk from visual, with the obfuscator library, following the following manual: https://docs.obfuscar.com/tutorials/xamarin.html
I have added the following post compilation action in my android csproj file:
<Target Name = "AfterBuild" Condition = "'$ (Configuration)' == 'Release'">
<Exec WorkingDirectory = "$ (MonoAndroidIntermediateAssetsDir)" Command = "'$ (Obfuscate)' $ (ProjectDir) obfuscar.xml" />
<Copy SourceFiles = "$ (TargetDir) name.Android.dll" DestinationFolder = "$ (MonoAndroidIntermediateAssetsDir)" />
<Copy SourceFiles = "$ (TargetDir) name.Core.dll" DestinationFolder = "$ (MonoAndroidIntermediateAssetsDir)" />
</Target>
When I compile in release it seems to work, but when I try to archive the app it gives me the following error:
Error MSB3073: The command "mono Obfuscar.Console.exe '/obfuscar.xml" exited with code 1. (MSB3073)
my obfuscar.xml file is:
<Obfuscator>
<Var name="RenameProperties" value="true" />
<Var name="RenameEvents" value="true" />
<Var name="RenameFields" value="true" />
<Var name="KeepPublicApi" value="true" />
<Var name="HidePrivateApi" value="true" />
<Var name="HideStrings" value="true" />
<Var name="UseUnicodeNames" value="true" />
<Var name="OptimizeMethods" value="true" />
<Var name="InPath" value="../name.Android/bin/Release" />
<Var name="OutPath" value="$(InPath)/Obfuscator_Output" />
<Module file="name.Android.dll" />
<Module file="name.Core.dll" />
</Obfuscator>
Thanks
