I have my android studio on a external hard drive and awhile ago I got "Error:Gradle build daemon disappeared unexpectedly (it may have been killed or may have crashed)" after killing android studios with the task manager. I could not figure out how to fix the problem so I just switched laptops which fixed the problem. Now android froze on me and I was forced to kill it through task manager again. Now I am getting the same error. The answers on the internet seem vary vague and or not solutions for a beginner like myself.
I fixed it by adding "org.gradle.daemon=false" into my «USER_HOME»/.gradle/gradle.properties, where «USER_HOME» is the home directory.
Just close all the instances of Android Studio and restart your project, it will figure out as it may be because of memory issue.
Try this it worked for me
org.gradle.daemon=true
I had the same error.
Adding org.gradle.daemon=false (or true) to gradle.properties didn't help.
I changed "home user directory for gradle" in Android studio settings to other (new) directory. After that "Sync project" and Gradle started and synced successfully.

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

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
I'm on Windows. I created a new project on Android Studio for Marshmallow at least.
The only thing I've done so far is generating the main activity which is a tabbed activity with view pager. Also, you should know that this project is a private git repo that I cloned.
I'm working on this project with another developer and the project is perfectly working on his side.
The problem is:
When I try to launch the app (wether it is a virtual device or my real phone), the gradle build gets stuck at the app:processDebugResources step. I waited more than an hour and nothing happened. Moreover, when I want to cancel the gradle build, it doesn't respond and I have to kill Android Studio process. Then I restart Android Studio and I have to kill a gradle process that prevents the initial gradle build (at Android Studio startup) from working.
The crazy thing is that I was able to launch the app before. I even installed it on my phone!
What I've tried so far:
Do what stackoverflow was giving as solutions like tick the offline mode in the settings
Create a new project --> It doesn't change anything
Reinstall Android Studio --> It doesn't change anything
Deactivating Avast antivirus
Invalidate cache/restart + Clean + rebuild (the rebuild gets stuck like when I try to launch the app)
And maybe other solutions that I forgot...
It's getting very annoying as it's making me lose days of development.
If you have any more solutions, or if you think I should try again some of the previous solutions, help would be greatly appreciated !
I know this is an old post, but I faced the same problem during the last few days and since i got crazy I hope I can help someone else out there.
After many hours of troubleshooting I found that the Java Platform SE binary executable goes in "suspended mode" in Windows 10, preventing Android Studio from compiling (it hangs at app:processDebugResources).
Example Screenshot
Killing the suspended process and recompiling the project works just fine... until Java gets suspended again.
Maybe your gradle version is not compatible with it. Try again with latest version of gradle in your project.
I did several things:
Install NDK
Change JDK from embedded one to Jdk 8
Redownload SDK i was using (6,7,8)
And now the problem is solved ! I have no idea which of these things made the tricks but I'm happy ! It may be useful to someone else one day.
For 2 days I can't start coding my first android app, because of an issue with Android Studio 2.3.1.
There is many discussions about that out there, but non of them helped me so far.
I'm not able to use Run button for my app or even to edit the main_activity.xml file in the program window. Also the following error occurs when Android Studio starts running.
Screen shot of the error:
I'm workin' on Windows 7, 64bit, 8gb RAM, Java 1.8.0.121. Installed Android Studio 2.3.1 using android-studio-bundle-162.3871768-windows.exe file with no custom settings.
To solve the problem I've tried:
reinstall Android Studio
remove .gradle catalog
use File>>Invalidate Crashes/Restart
nothing helps.
Problem solved!
In my particular case the problem was caused by uncomplete Android Studio installation.
The reason of such an installation was Comodo AntiVirus
I noticed that there was some .bat files blocked during the installation. Comodo doesn't inform about it, but you can check it on blocked features list.
So I removed completely Android Studio, turned off all blocking functions in Comodo and quited it. Then installed AS once again.
Now it works fine. Ad least so far... Luckilly there's no Gradle error, so I hope there won't occur further problems.
Hope that this tip's gonna be helpful to somebody.
Have a good day folks!
my android studios started freezing up on me so I killed the task using task manager and when I reopened android studio I got this error:
Error:Failed to complete Gradle execution. Cause: Gradle build daemon
disappeared unexpectedly (it may have been killed or may have crashed)
I tried cleaning and rebuilding the gradle and closing out and reopening android but it doesn't go away. The main answers on stack overflow seem to have outdated answers to click on things that are not there anymore such as Settings-->Gradle-->GradleVM options.
i solved it from information issue tracker it happen in android 3.0 canary 4
go to gradle.properties
add this code
android.enableAapt2=false
As outlined here:
https://developer.android.com/studio/intro/studio-config.html
To change the VM heap size do the following:
1. Help > Edit Custom VM Options
2. Add the line
-XmxheapSize
, where heapSize is the size you want.
ie.
-Xmx2g
for 2 gigs
This error is mainly associated with Android Studio 3.0 Canary 3 AAPT2(Android Asset Packaging Tool).
Improved incremental resource processing with AAPT2. To enable AAPT2, add >the following to your gradle.properties file: android.enableAapt2=true.
this is a new feature added to android studio in order to increase its performance.
Read more about improved android plugin.
But some how it cause an error Even a fresh install pop up this error on first start. You just need to do one thing to solve this issue.
Go to gradle.properties
Add this line android.enableAapt2=false(If its not already there.)
If you set android.enableAapt2=true the same error will reappear.
(heapSize have nothing to do with this issue.)
It is because of due to lack of RAM memory in System.
Close all instance of Android Studio and restart it.
Make sure RAM has released some space:
check in Windows Task Manager (by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del it will display)-->Performance.
It may be happened cause of VM heap size. Once try by adding below line in
HELP --> Edit custom VM option
-Xmx2g
where 2g is size of heap
Close your android studio and restart your computer.
Then try building it again. Sometimes this error goes out by simply restarting your computer.
this error has to do with less ram so
for me it was fixed after I closed the emulator
as emulator was consuming much ram and restarted it
android studio needs so much ram to run...
So free some memory and restart studio
Im also having the same issue just close all other tabs and click invalid catches and restart the studio.It works fine
I am working on Android project. I connected my phone to Android Studio in order to test the app. After second upload Gradle Build failed and gave this error:
Error:Execution failed for task ':app:buildInfoDebugLoader'.
Exception while doing past iteration backup : Source /home/ziyaddin/AndroidStudioProjects/Test/app/build/intermediates/builds/debug/19181584762318/classes.dex and destination /home/ziyaddin/AndroidStudioProjects/Test/app/build/intermediates/builds/debug/19181584762318/classes.dex must be different
What can be the reason for that? How to solve this problem?
I solved this issue by Build -> Rebuild Project and then Run again.
Also I think newly added menu Run -> Clean and Rerun should also fix this issue.
[EDIT:] Clean and Rerun is removed in Android Studio 2.3
I also encountered same issue, it solved by rebuilding the project.
Build-> Rebuild Project
and then
Run
I think this is only occuring on new Android Studio update from 2.0.
I have this problem and solved by removing all directory (or only one) from directory ../app/build/intermediates/builds/debug/.
in this example: /home/ziyaddin/AndroidStudioProjects/Test/app/build/intermediates/builds/debug/19181584762318
i solved this by invalidating cache, Rebuilding the project, and then running it, it worked fine.
Steps to take:
select Build
Select Rebuild project
run project
I have just had this issue, and solved by unplugging my phone and running in the emulator. This built okay, and then subsequent tests on my phone were successful. In doing this, I also commented out my savedInstanceState Bundle, which may have been a contributing factor. I think this is potentially an internal glitch with Android Studio.
Steps to take:
Comment out Bundles/Saved States
Run on Emulator only
Retry with Phone
Add back Bundles/Saves States
5) Try running on device again, all should be good.
Rebuild project works fine in Android Studio 2.2.2
