I know this topic was created on the past, but since none of the suggested solution worked for me. I create it again with the hope to get helped and help others too.
Each project I create only run once. If I restart my computer for example, I get for the project a gradle related error message and build fails:
Timeout waiting to lock journal cache (C:\Users\SKUL.gradle\caches\journal-1). It is currently in use by another Gradle instance.
Owner PID: 16056
Our PID: 11672
Owner Operation:
Our operation:
Lock file: C:\Users\SKUL.gradle\caches\journal-1\journal-1.lock
The journal-1.lock file I was not able to delete this as was suggested, so from task manager I end the OpenJDK Platform Binary task. Then I was able to delete it. But again, the build crash at 33% with the same error message.
The only solution that worked for me was
End OpenJDK Platform Binary Task
Delete the whole “caches” folder (.gradle\caches)
Then the project takes too much time to build again but runs successfully.
What would you suggest me to try? Gradle version? Downgrade to another version?
//I had no issue when I used expo for react native
After a new installation of Android Studio 3.6.3 (portable). When I try to build and run my project, I keep getting
app\build\intermediates\compile_and_runtime_not_namespaced_r_class_jar\debug\R.jar:
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another
process.
Not sure what it wants from me. I run Android Studio "as administrator" and even closing the project and reopening it, the first time it runs, the second time I get the error.
I tried invalidate caches and restart, I tried deleting folders under app/build but it seems to come back. What am I missing?
Thanks
Update:
When trying to clean the project, I get the following
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:clean'.
> Unable to delete directory 'C:\Users\name\Downloads\portable\android-studio\projects\appm\app\build'
Failed to delete some children. This might happen because a process has files open or has its working directory set in the target directory.

If I wait for several minutes, for example, the time it took me to update this question, then it works again...
update:
Updated to Android Studio 4 and the same problem occurs.
Try
taskkill /im java.exe /f
in cmd (windows 10)
I encountered the same problem but on Android Studio Arctic Fox while working on a Jet Compose project.
I simply changed the run configuration and the build error was resolved.
Change DefaultPreview to app and the issue is resolved.
Killing the "OpenJDK Platform binary" process from Task manager worked great for me.Thanks to Abed Murad, which I saw on his link. (I have no reputation to cast a vote yet - my bad!)
It's an internal bug in AS, I reported it as a bug, you can follow up here
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/167701947
I used to try to delete the file R.jar on ...\app\build\intermediates\compile_and_runtime_not_namespaced_r_class_jar\debug and when it's locked, I had to close Android Studio then delete R.jar before reopening the Android Studio.Is it (killing the "OpenJDK Platform binary") the best solution? I don't know, however, it's what I got for now. Once I get a better one, I'll update it. Luck there guys!

Try removiong all *.xml files from %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudioPreview2020.3\workspace
I figured it out from this google issue.
I had the same issue all I did remove R.jar and re build my project.
Invalidate cache and restart solved my problem

Unable to start the daemon process.
This problem might be caused by incorrect configuration of the daemon.
For example, an unrecognized jvm option is used.
Please refer to the user guide chapter on the daemon at https://docs.gradle.org/4.4/userguide/gradle_daemon.html
Please read the following process output to find out more:
I had the same problem, i also tried many ways. And after i uninstalled Connectify me program, it worked. So i think you can try to uninstall some programs you have just installed. Sorry for my English.
I am new to Android development and Java but after successfully installing Android Studio and the JDK, managing to create my first app and test it both in the emulator and on a phone now whenever I open Android Studio I get the following Message:

I have searched this site and extensively on Google and so far all suggested solutions I have found have failed.
I am using Android Studio 2.3.3 and JDK 1.8.0_131.
So far I have tried:-
Uninstalling both Android Studio and the JDK, deleting any folders left behind and then re-installing both.
Deleting the .gradle folder from C:Users$username$.
Changing the Build Process Heap Size to 1024.
Invalidating all caches and restarting multiple times.
Double checking and even Triple checking the paths to the JDK and Android SDK.
Ensuring that I have no extra open programs/windows and background apps in case it was a memory shortage issue suggested in some posts.
I am still at a loss as to how to fix this problem and open to any suggestions.
Thank you.
Go to
1: File > Project structure > SDK Location
2: Check embedded java
and restart android studio
Android Studio (Beta) 0.8.6 gets stuck when I try to build/run the project, as well as clean it. It stays responsive, but the Gradle: Executing Tasks message doesn't disappear (longer than 20 minutes is when I give up) and the app never runs.
This is what I attempted:
Invalidate caches/restart
Force quit and restart
Remove it from Applications (on Mac) and re-download it from the official website.
Fixed it by going to Android Studio -> Preferences -> Gradle -> and ticking Offline work. Still have no idea what was wrong, but at least now it compiles.
Edit:
In new Android Studio Versions the path is File -> Other Settings -> Default Settings -> Build-Excecution-Deployment -> Gradle
The question seems old but in case anyone need it.
I have just faced this problem recently, after a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 installation.
After google for a while with no luck i checked the terminal, it turned out that libz.so.1 is missing. So i installed it, worked like charm.
Installing instruction here:
libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file
Enable Offline Work from Setting
This can happen for lots of reasons. So instead of giving an exact fix, here are some steps to help isolate the cause.
Run the gradle command from command line. Does it still fail?
$ ./gradlew myTask
If so, re-run with debug flag. Any useful info?
$ ./gradlew myTask --debug
If it's just hanging, try getting a stack trace. Search the dump file for myTask
$ jps -mv | grep Gradle <--- be sure to use capital "G"
2290 GradleDaemon 3.3 -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Xmx2304M -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Duser.country=US -Duser.language=en -Duser.variant
$ jstack -l 2290 >> dump.txt <--- your process ID will be different
If it's only hanging when running Android Studio, generate thread dump for Android Studio read more here.
You have to add execution mode to the file: AndroidStudioProjects/YourProjectName/gradlew so that Android Studio can execute it.
if you are on a linux machine use this command: chmod +x gradlew
to run this command you may need to have administration privileges. in Ubuntu you can use sudo chmod +x gradlew to do that
In my case looks like gradle was missing 32 bit library on a 64 bit Ubuntu 16.04. Doing sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:i386 resolved the problem.
This happened to me after adding google play api to dependencies{}. ./gradlew app:assembleDebug showed an error saying something like Dex ID limit reached use multi-dex. just as I was setting it up as described here, I decided to remove the dependency I recently added and the issue was gone.
Google also suggests using proguard as a technique to optimize the number of Dex IDs in the same document.
For GNU/Linux Users:
I copied the SDK from another storage to my home directory. Then I was getting stock gradle build running. The problem was the permissions of SDK files. Watch the gradle console log and if you see some permission denieded stuff, then do the following - give all the files executing permission by this command:
chmod -R +x /path/to/android-sdk
After a lot of struggle and following all solutions posted above (and in similar posts) I finally found that the problem on my PC was the antivirus application. I disabled it and gradle refreshed and built fast, as it did before the problem started.
It looks like my antivirus recently started blocking gradle from updating/downloading necessary information from the Internet and that is what is causing the delays and eventually timeouts in loading and refreshing a project. Disabling the antivirus it corrects the problem, every time.
I have centos 7 64 bits installed on a virtualbox 5.0.16 virtual machine and gradle version 2.10 with Android Studio 2.0
The log file of gradle is located at $HOME/.gradle/daemon/2.10
Log file: daemon-<some number>.out.log
By inspecting this log file I found out that libz.so.1 was not found by aapt.
Despite that command "locate libz.so.1" output was
/usr/lib64/libz.so
/usr/lib64/libz.so.1
/usr/lib64/libz.so.1.2.7
aapt was not able to find it.
In order to solve the issue I had to execute
yum install zlib.i686
After that Gradle started working as a charm.
Good luck!
I had something similar.
When I ran gradle from the command like it would throw this exception
org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskExecutionException: Execution failed for task ':app:compileDevDebugJavaWithJavac'.
after waiting at this line for like 25 minutes
:app:compileDevDebugJavaWithJavac
it turned out to have something to do with the android annotations I was using. I replaced the
#UiThread
I was using with
activity.runOnUiThread(new Runnable(...
And it started to compile just fine. Its weird because I was using the #UiThread annotation in lots of other places in my code.
In my case, I was getting this error by the Gradle Builder (Android Studio 2.2, Windows 10)
java.lang.RuntimeException: Timed out while waiting for slave aapt process, try setting environment variable SLAVE_AAPT_TIMEOUT to a value bigger than 5 seconds
The solution was just to add the variable SLAVE_AAPT_TIMEOUT to my Windows environment, and set it to 30
I was with the same problem and solved setting variable SLAVE_AAPT_TIMEOUT in System Variables with the value 30.
I'm on Windows, and I had the same problem.
For me, the gradlew executable somehow got deleted, no idea how. I'm on the Canary, and I've had the issue before.
In the terminal window on Android Studio, type gradlew and it will redownload and install it if it's missing. (My old solution was a complete reinstall of Android Studio, so this is easier)
I had the same problem, even with new standard projects (Ubuntu 16.04). The problem turned out to be in third-party dependencies of the Gradle. View the file:
~/.gradle/init.gradle
It may contain additional dependencies, which the Gradle can not load.
You can see what can not be loaded in the console:
./gradlew --debug
If you use realm library and use RealmStudio or RealmBrowser to open file .realm, make sure you perform delete file .realm/lock and folder .realm.management.
I think java.exe is the reason of this issue. Just manually kill this application and try. It really worked for me using Android studio 3.0.1.
In my case it was stuck on mergeDebugResources because I accidentally had a double-escaped single-quote \\' in a string. Android Studio doesn't mark this as an error, but instead gets stuck building!
