Android Studio 3.0 Canary 4 unsupported method NativeArtifact.getRuntimeFiles()

My project runs well under android studio 2.3. But with 3.0, it failed to refresh with this Error:
Error:Unsupported method: NativeArtifact.getRuntimeFiles().
The version of Gradle you connect to does not support that method.
To resolve the problem you can change/upgrade the target version of Gradle you connect to.
Alternatively, you can ignore this exception and read other information from the model.
I'm using Gradle 2.14.1 & Gradle android plugin 2.2.0. Upgrade Gradle (to 3.5) does not solve the problem.
Does anybody else have this problem and was able to find any workaround?

I had the same error message using 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.0'.
I found 2 ways for fixing this error :
Update Android Studio to version 3.3 (Help -> Check for Update...)
or switch to 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1' in build.gradle.

Try to change in build.gradle
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.1'
}

Gradle sync failed: Access is denied

I have installed Android studio and i have created the new project but it is giving me the error:
Gradle 'MyApplication2' project refresh failed
Gradle sync failed: Access is denied
I have also run android studio as an administrator but it did not work. Please help me with this. How can I build the gradle and run the project.

I have had a similar issue recently when the gradle plugin release was updated to 5.1.1. which caused an error message "apollo\generatedIR\debug (Access is denied)".
In order to fix this I had to revert back to the previous gradle version which was 3.3.2 and I had to make sure that the zip file that is downloaded when the project syncs matched the 3.3.2 version.
Here is where to check the versions of the gradle builds: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin
The changes I made where:
In the gradle (project) file change the classpath plugin to the previous version:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.2'
Then in the gradle-wrapper.properties file change the distributionUrl to match the required gradle version.
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.10.1-all.zip
Then resync your project. If it doesn't work double check your gradle files by going to the C:Users//.gradle/wrapper/dists folder and it should match the version on the web page above.

if there is permission related issue. Then you can change the gradle path from C to D drive. it will fix the issue

Go to your project folder right click ->Properties->under Security tab on it check permission and allow all permissions.

Android Studio 2.2 Gradle update fails

New Android Studio ask me about Gradle plugin update
But it fails, when I press Update button.
Failed to update the version of Android Gradle Plugin
How to fix this?

Looks like it's an inner bug of Android Studio
I just change manually
compile 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.1.3'
in root build.gradle to
compile 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0'
And all started working.

Download gradle this link manually and copy gradle folder
https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.14.1-all.zip
Last version :
https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.1-all.zip

Failed to sync Gradle project - Android Studio 2.2

I've recently updated to Android Studio 2.2 and changed Gradle plugin version to 2.2.0 com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0.
Now I'm getting the following error when trying to sync Gradle files:
Gradle sync failed: Unable to load class
'com.android.builder.profile.Recorder$Property'.
If I change Gradle plugin version to 2.1.3, the problem disappears. How I can use the latest version 2.2.0?
P.S. I'm also using gradle-experimental for NDK support - com.android.tools.build:gradle-experimental:0.7.3

I solved the problem by updating gradle-experimental to version 0.8.0 :)
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0'
classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle-experimental:0.8.0"
hope this will fix it for you too and will not generate new errors!

Building after Android Studio 2.0 alpha5 upgrade gives FildNotFoundException for play-services8.1.0

After upgrading Android Studio 2.0 to preview 6, after all the sync, clean, rebuild, I am now getting this error:
Error:Execution failed for task ':app:compileDebugJavaWithJavac'.> java.io.FileNotFoundException: /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/EPICEIRIE 2/app/build/intermediates/exploded-aar/com.google.android.gms/play-services/8.1.0/jars/classes.jar (No such file or directory)
I tried updating the SDK tools all to their most recent version, and even tried updating the play-services to 8.4.0, but no luck...
Does anyone else run into similar problem? Have you found a solution for it??

Try with Update your Gradle plugin to:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.0.0-alpha6'
