Execution failed for task ':app:kaptGenerateStubsFossDebugKotlin'. > Internal compiler error

I have created espresso UI tests and setup the CircleCI to run them. The tests are running successfully on emulator locally on my machine and also on a real device. But the build is failing when I try to run them on CircleCI throwing Execution failed for task ':app:kaptGenerateStubsFossDebugKotlin'. The error comes when command ./gradlew connectedAndroidTest is run by CircleCI.
You can get more details here

Android gradle plugin update to 3.3.0 throw NullPointerException

I just updated to Android Studio 3.3 and tried to update the Gradle Plugin to 3.3.0 but project build fails.
The project is a library with an app (that uses the library). Tried everything: clear, rebuild, reset, delete the .gradle directory, even restart the computer without luck. Any idea?
Here is the stack trace

I just found the solution while trying other things.
For some reason I had the Google Services plugin in my library's gradle file, so I removed it and the project built without issues.
I removed this line
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

Update google play service classpath in project level build.gradle
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.3'

I've googled and not been able to find any fixes.
I'm running Linux Mint Rebecca 17.1 32-bit.
Not sure what other information to provide. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

just install the jdk1.8.0_102 and set JAVA_PATH in your Environment Variable to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_102

I must have messed up installation somehow, after deleting ~/.AndroidStudioPreview1.2/ and ~/.AndroidStudioPreview2.2/ I redownloaded the installation zip and reinstalled. Now it seems to be working.

PD: Sorryfor my bad english and the format of the question this is my first question.

I had the same java.lang.ClassNotFoundException exception, trying to include jsoup.
What helped me was opening the terminal, going to the root of the project and executing
gradle clean
gradle assemble
