Flutter warning: path_provider_linux-0.0.1+1\android does not exist

Running a Flutter project and after upgrading Android Studio to version 4.0 I get the following warning when opening the Android module in Android Studio:
Warning: root project 'android': Unable to resolve additional project configuration.
Details: org.apache.tools.ant.BuildException: Basedir C:\src\flutter\.pub-cache\hosted\pub.dartlang.org\path_provider_linux-0.0.1+1\android does not exist.
I can see that now this android directory does indeed not exist.
On the project screen, it says: Gradle project sync failed. Basic functionality (e.g. editing, debugging) will not work properly.
I have tried to reinstall both Android Studio and Flutter, but it doesn't help.
How can this problem be solved?

in path_provider_linux & path_provider_macos no android project
https://github.com/flutter/plugins/tree/master/packages/path_provider/path_provider_linux
https://github.com/flutter/plugins/tree/master/packages/path_provider/path_provider_macos

In the pubspec.yaml file under dependencies use:
path_provider: ^1.6.5
Dont use latest one
In build.gradle make sure classpath is as follow:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.3'
In gradle-wrapper.properties file makes sure this is the distribtion URL:
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.6.4-all.zip
Make sure in all the gradle files the latest version are there.Android studio only will help that and try again

Downgrade Gradle from 3.3 to 2.14.1

Long story short: My android phone keeps disconnecting from ADB. I was told to update android studio, did that. I open my project in Intellij and try to run on android and I get an error:
BUILD FAILED
Total time: 48.986 secs
Error: /Users/me/Desktop/comp/Development/comp-ionic/platforms/android/gradlew: Command failed with exit code 1 Error output:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':compileDebugJavaWithJavac'.
> java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)
My first thought is that my gradle is the wrong version. For this specific app, I need to use gradle version 2.14.1.
When I type gradle -v I'm getting version 3.3.
Is there a way to delete/downgrade gradle from 3.3 to 2.14.1?
Or is this another problem?

If you're using the gradle wrapper, then there'll be a folder in your project named "gradle" with a subfolder named "wrapper", inside that, there are 2 files:
- gradle-wrapper.jar
- gradle-wrapper.properties
Open "gradle-wrapper.properties" and change the place where it says "3.3" to "2.14.1". Then sync gradle, and it will automatically download 2.14.1.
If you're using the new 2.3 Android Studio, you HAVE to use gradle wrapper 3.3, as its the minimum supported gradle wrapper version. If so, then you'll have to download Android Studio 2.2, or fix whatever issue you have in your project that needs gradle wrapper version 2.14.1.
To get more information about whatever the issue is, try running this:
./gradlew clean assemble -stacktrace
That will clean your project, try and compile it, and if/when it fails, it will show you a stacktrace of the error.

What you should do is to change the gradle build tools version to the one that matches your gradle version. According to here you can set the gradle to 2.14.1 by changing build tools to lower than 1.0.0.
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.0.0'// For gradle 2.2.1 - 2.3
// NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
// in the individual module build.gradle files
}
}
Notice: if you keep checking the mentioned link you'll see Higher is better for gradle.

For me, Android Studio > File > Invalidate Caches / Restart did the trick.

I got the same problem when upgrading to Android Studio 2.3.1. There is something funky about Gradle 3.3 (It fails by "java.lang.NullPointerException: null value in entry: destinationDir=null at com.google.common.collect.CollectPreconditions.checkEntryNotNull(CollectPreconditions.java:33)").
Good news: seems like the current most recent version (3.5) works.
Go to File|Project Structure|Project, and use these versions:
Gradle version=3.5
Android Plugin version=2.3.1

I update the Android Studio version to 3.3 Canary 4, then update the gradle plugin, and the project stops working.
I do not know how to restore my AS to the previous state, nighter the gradle plugin.
But just with this command, the project now works, for me: gradlew clean assemble -stacktrace, in terminal tab in AS.

Android Studio: Re-download dependencies and sync project

I downloaded an open source game "ChaseWhisplyProject" source code from Github.
I imported the project in my Android Studio (Version 1.5.1).
It shows following error message:
Error:Failed to open zip file.
Gradle's dependency cache may be corrupt (this sometimes occurs after a network connection timeout.)
Re-download dependencies and sync project (requires network)
Re-download dependencies and sync project (requires network)
I changed all the dependency versions to latest one bu still it is showing the same message.
It has two modules under the main project 1) BaseGameUtils & 2)ChaseWhisply.
The above modules are not shown in bold letters (I think it should be shown in bold letters like module "app").
Following are the gradle files.
1) Root Gradle:
// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
}
2) BaseGameUtils Module Gradle
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.1"
}
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.5.0'
}
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.1.1'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.4.0'
}
3) ChaseWhisply Module Gradle:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.5.0'
}
}
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:gridlayout-v7:23.1.1'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.1.1'
compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:23.1.1'
compile 'com.nineoldandroids:library:2.4.0'
compile project(':BaseGameUtils')
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.1"
lintOptions {
// TODO fix and remove !
disable 'MissingTranslation', 'DuplicateIds', 'ExtraTranslation'
}
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 23
versionCode 22
versionName "0.3.6"
}
}
4) Settings.gradle
include ':ChaseWhisply', ':BaseGameUtils'
What is wrong over here? Please help.

While importing a libGDX project I got the same message from Android Studio 2.2.
Went to File->Project Structure then selected Project and set
Gradle version
and
Android Plugin Version
to values identical to another project I had recently created with Android Studio 2.2 and updated SDK. Could then sync gradle. Did Build->Build Clean with no issues. Then did Run->Clean and Rerun and project ran fine.
Hope this helps.

It basically means that the gradle zip file in the cache folder is corrupted, if you don't want to change the version like the up-voted answer then you must delete the folder for your gradle version you're using for this project from the below path.
Then just retry the sync and android studio will download it again
C:\Users\ [user here] \.gradle\wrapper\dists
ex: if you're using 3.3 for this project you'd be deleting the folder
C:\Users\[user here]\.gradle\wrapper\dists\gradle-3.3-all

I was also facing the same issue. The solution worked for me was go to "gradle\wrapper\dists" and deleted the folder "grade-4.10.1-all" folder and downloaded the same version after that i pasted the extracted folder in same address.After that I again synchronized the android studio. I worked for me.

I face the same problem and I search for it and found a best solution and i works for me:
Manually download Gradle 3.3 binary (direct link: https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.3-bin.zip)
Open your android studio root directory, and extract the zip to the gradle folder (for example: program files/android-studio/gradle/gradle-3.3)
Open Android Studio, go to File->Settings-> (Build, Exectution, Deployment) >Gradle and set "Gradle home" to point your new gradle-3.3 folder.
Apply and sync.

May be incompatible with Gradle and maven version
delete project dir/gradle/wrapper
put a right version gradle into it
run again

change the gradle-wraper-properties distributionUrl to your local downloaded gradle such as
distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.3-all.zip

I solved this issue by this following steps
1.C:\Users\System name.gradle\wrapper\
2.Inside wrapper folder u will find grale file with some version, You just have to delete it
3.Come/Go to android studio and Go to File->Sync project with Gradle Files.
4.Android studio automatically download the require gradle file.
5.And now go for coding

The close android studio then goes to the directory and you will find this type of folder. I saw in my pc. after deleted then clean project and sync. its works fine.
you just delete from this directory
C:\Users\ [user here] .gradle\wrapper\dists
if you use 3.3 version in android studio. you can see like this
C:\Users[user here].gradle\wrapper\dists\gradle-3.3-all

Well, It's a bit late, but usually happens when something went wrong in Android Studio's initial launch (eg. system crash, connection loss or whatever). We can call it bad programming or lazy QA.
To fix this close Android Studio and delete everything from the following directory. Don't worry files will be downloaded on next launch.
For Windows: C:\Users\your-username.gradle\wrapper\dists
For Linux: ~/.gradle/wrapper/dists
For mac: ~/.gradle/wrapper/dists
You can also Gradle manually to fix this issue, But it's better to let Android studio does this work. .

Clean Project is a way to go. After you clean project, make sure you rebuild it. Usually it solves the gradle issues for me.

In my case I was running IntelliJ IDEA as non root user.

If you want to use the new features, you should not revert it to the old version, just delete the directory ~/.gradle recursively, then restart Android Studio.

Update your gradle version and update with required version of gradle and syn your project.
https://services.gradle.org/

First of all, open your gradle-wrapper.properties file from the project then note down the version of the Gradle.
It could be like this:
distributional=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.5-bin.zip
So, here my Gradle version is 6.5. It could be different in your case.
After this, open file explorer and open your project folder. There you will be having the Gradle folder open it, inside it the version will be mentioned of your previous Gradle.
Now you will have to download the Gradle file according to the wrapper.properties(for example nothing but 6.5 version).
You can download it from here
Extract it
paste it to the Gradle folder
open your project > file > settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Gradle, then select the newly downloaded Gradle file in the Gradle user home.
Then run your project.

This worked for me - go to https://gradle.org/releases/ and download latest stable version (binary-only works fine). extract and insert into C:\Users\OWNER\.gradle\wrapper\dists folder.
Open Android Studio settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Gradle, use gradle from: specific location.

The following steps solved my problem :
1.C:\Users\System name.gradle\wrapper\
2.Inside wrapper folder u will find grale file with some version, You just have to delete it
3.Come/Go to android studio and Go to File->Sync project with Gradle Files.
4.Android studio automatically download the require gradle file.
5.And now go for coding

Import a project to Android studio faced problems

I want reading an open source project so I select k9mail for start. The recommendation was run and reading this code in Android Studio. I import k9mail project to AS 1.2.1.1 version. I download gradle 2.4 version and added this in environment variable. When I want to run this application, but I receive some errors that I describe below:
1) When I click Run (Alt+Shift+F10), select Android Application, select my module (there is k9mail) and select USB Device, then I see a warning:
No JDK specified for module 'k-9-master'.
2) When I click on Run (Shift+F10), I faced this error in messages tab:
Gradle DSL method not found: 'android()'
Possible causes:
A)The project 'k-9-master' may be using a version of Gradle that does not contain the method.Open Gradle wrapper file
B)The build file may be missing a Gradle plugin. Apply Gradle plugin
When I updated gradle to 2.4, I changed classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.2.3' to 'classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.4'' from build.gradle of k9mail, but my problems were not solved.
I googled but I can't find solutions for my problems.

No jdk specified for the module.
For that you have to specify the jdk path through Project Structure.
You may also verify by looking at local.properties
For gradle related issues you just kindly update your gradle build and SDKs to latest versions.
This will minimize your gradle issues.

Gradle version 1.8 is required. Current version is 1.9-rc-3 - Android Studio

Gradle updates and error now, I can't import my project.
Error log:
Could not execute build using Gradle distribution 'http://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-1.9-rc-3-bin.zip'.
Build file '/home/luiz/Dropbox/projetos/droido-beta/droido.torpedos/build.gradle' line: 9
A problem occurred evaluating project ':droido.torpedos'.
A problem occurred evaluating project ':droido.torpedos'.
Gradle version 1.8 is required. Current version is 1.9-rc-3. If using the gradle wrapper, try editing the distributionUrl in /home/luiz/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties to gradle-1.8-all.zip
How solve this?

I had this issue with android studio 0.4.2, I changed the android tools in build.gradle from 0.6+ to 0.7+
original line in build.gradle:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.6.+'
Changed to:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.7.+'
Then I just ran Tools->Android->Sync Project with Gradle Files and everything worked.

Gradle 1.9 is not yet supported by the build tools.
Consider using Gradle Wrapper which will download it's own version of gradle that your project is built from.
See (http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/gradle_wrapper.html)
Add the wrapper task and set it to 1.8
then run gradle wrapper
You might have to re-import your project to AS and when you do, tell it to use the wrapper.
Hope that helps.

I had this problem using Ubuntu (Linux Mint) this week and I couldn't get the wrapper working. My final solution was to:
Download and unzip Gradle 1.8 from http://www.gradle.org/downloads
Remove the .gradle directory from your user directory (/home//.gradle) (I'm not sure if this is actually necessary)
Re-import the project to Android Studio, and in the import options, specify "local gradle distribution" - point to the newly installed/unzipped Gradle 1.8
And fingers crossed your error disappears.

You have to remove directory $USER_HOME.gradle\wrapper\dists\gradle-1.9-rc-3-bin using command. In Windows:
cd .gradle\wrapper\dists
rmdir /s gradle-1.9-rc-3-bin
