My gradle build completes successfully, but I get:
WARNING: Unsupported Kotlin plugin version.
The `embedded-kotlin` and `kotlin-dsl` plugins rely on features of Kotlin `1.5.31` that
might work differently than in the requested version `1.6.10`.
All of my build.gradle.kts scripts refer to using version 1.5.31. The only association my project has with version 1.6.10 is that Android Studio has the Kotlin version 1.6.10 plugin added. If I try to disable that plugin, I get a message that several other plugins will be disabled. If I accept that, android studio crashes and will not start up again. It won't start up again even if you reinstall android studio again. The solution is to find the file named "disabled-plugins.txt" and delete that file. It's in your AppData folder and in a JetBrains subdirectory. It turns out that it's one or more of those other disabled plugins that prevents Android Studio from starting up again.
The question I have is how do I fix this version mismatch issue. I can't delete the plugin from Android Studio for the reasons I mentioned above. If I try to update my project to using version 1.6.10 I get literally 100's of unresolved dependencies. And it seems from opinionated investigation that 1.6.10 still have too many issues for general use.
By the way, when I look at the gradle window for the project I can see where the dependencies come from. Usually when I look at the gradle window I just see sub project folders that I can drill into for more information, but for this project, it has an additional folder name dependencies. I don't know how they get into my project. But when I look at their version numbers that's where the 1.6.10 mismatch happens.
So, I think I understand why the warning message is valid, I'm at a lost on what I need to do to correct this situation. For the moment, I'm just ignoring the warning, and so far I'm not finding any issues in proceeding that way. But that's means I'm proceeding, without an understanding of what's going on here! Sometimes that's okay and at other times that's a bad judgment The error message itself seems inverted. I would think that 1.6.10 is the embedded kotlin and kotlin-dsl since it an android studio plugin, but the error message seems to say it in the opposite way. So anyway, if someone can bring some clarity as to what's going on, and how I'm thinking wrongly about this problem would be greatly appreciated.
I'll accept the following as the answer to what's going on about the unsupported kotlin version:
https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/13020
So, for the moment, I'll go on like this is just a nuisance warning and ignore that.
What I just did was to re-create my Android Studio from a blank brand new project. I copied and pasted stuff from the previous project into the new project. I copied the source and build.script.kts files, so essentially everything is a copy of the disabandoned project. This new project didn't give me the WARNING message anymore. And in additional, I'm now able to upgrade my project to using kotlin 1.6.10, which I previously couldn't do because of the literally 100's of dependencies resolution issues. Whatever, that issue went away, and a lot of others things started working as expected once I recreated the project. I can't say what got my project into that weird state. Deleting the .gradle and .idea folders, wouldn't fix the problem. I didn't try deleting the JetBrains cache, I wish I would have tried that.
If have a gradle (5.4.1) project (plugin 3.4.1) with two flavors (main and other) using the same sourceSets. I've come across an issue when renaming a resource id (in a layout XML). Here are the observations:
Android Studio 3.4.1 doesn't show any errors and works as expected, i.e. I can click through from kotlin code to the id in the layout xml.
Rebuilding the main flavor also works as expected (no compilation errors).
Rebuilding the other flavor gives a "unresolved reference" compilation error for the new ID. Gradle clean does not help. However, setting org.gradle.caching=false in the project-level gradle.properties does work (following Gradle sync, Clean, Rebuild). This explains why clean was not helping when caching was enabled.
On closer inspection of the R.java file, it seems to be using IDs from some rather old project state (presumably from the gradle cache stored in the user home directory). Now, I could just delete the gradle cache, but I'd rather find out why resource ID changes are not being processed properly. Whichever way Android Studio is running builds in the background, is working fine, just not when performing Build/Run etc.
All this investigation required a lot of trial and error: switching various gradle.properties settings one by one to see which one was leading to the problem, and I'm still no closer to finding the root cause of the problem.
What is the best approach to solving this type of problem, or is trial and error the only way?
Everything is ok but when i try to run it gets one error
Gradle: : java.lang.NullPointerException
Please help me, because i wanna to throw all this stuff with my NTB down from the cliff, after about five hours of configuring git, android studio and copying my projects from Eclipse, still got this
I had the same problem. I solved it by going into 'Project Structure' and one of my modules had both 'Android' and 'Android - Gradle'. I deleted the 'Android - Gradle' and rebuilt the project and the error disappeared.
Edit: I had bigger problems than this and ended up creating a new project...
You need to make sure Gradle is installed and properly configured in the preferences.
I had the same problem. It was because the path to android studio contained a whitespace. Installing android studio to the recomended location solved my problem.
As easycheese underlined the problem is related to the presence of the android-gradle item below one or more modules in your project. Go to the "project structure" (from the File menu) and check which module has two sub-items, one of them must be the android-gradle, delete it and rebuild your project. It should fix the issue......as J.Romero says...Android Studio is far from being ready for professional use, but what it is really annoying is that Google, with all its resources, gives developers such "immature tools" that make rather waste time than anything else....shame
I wont re-write my whole answer, but check out the following page in which i replied to a Gradle common error with over 10 common solutions across the web including mine.
Long story short, for me it turned out to be system resources were getting low (Google Chrome was the greedy one)
If it works after a fresh reboot, but after a few minutes or hours it starts.. This would indicate this.
Gradle Error In Android Studio
In my app, I am using Pull TO Refresh list view library. I had designed layouts for all screens respectively. When I ran lint on my project, in one of my layout file for xlarge screen, it gave me fatal error:
Class referenced in the layout file,
com.handmark.pulltorefresh.library.PullToRefreshListView, was not
found in the project or the libraries
While in same layout file for other screens, it is giving no error at all. Also, I had used same library in other layouts of my file, where it does not give any error. It is giving same error for Google Maps api as well. My project targets Google Api level 16 and I had checked, all libraries are added to it. But,the error doesn't go away even on cleaning project.
This is a lint bug and you can safely ignore it. Lint is meant to help, not to hinder your development time. Change the lint Errors to warnings and you can compile and run the app just fine. I don't recommend turning it off because it helps to keep your code cleaner.
Make a project Project -> Clean... this resets the bug errors for me.
I was also getting a similar error, for me, it was resolved by adding android.enableJetifier=true to gradle.properties.
You can suppress the lint error by, passing the error type to the ignore attribute within that view, for example:
<com.handmark.pulltorefresh.library.PullToRefreshListView
...
tools:ignore="MissingClass"
...
/>
Just make sure you have tools imported:
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

https://googlesamples.github.io/android-custom-lint-rules/checks/MissingClass.md.html
It happened to me when i changed thé android studio IDE, To solve it:
-reate a new project;
-replace the content of dependencies in build.gradle of your project with the content of dependencies in build.gradle of the new project;
-sync project with gradle.
And it will work.
Encounter this problem when trying to Build Project getting such output in console:
[2010-07-19 23:29:23 - myProject]
trouble processing "javax/net/SocketFactory.class":
[2010-07-19 23:29:23 - myProject]
Attempt to include a core VM class in something other than a core library.
It is likely that you have attempted to include the core library from a desktop
virtual machine into an application, which will most assuredly not work. If
you really intend to build a core library -- which is only appropriate as
part of creating a full virtual machine binary, as opposed to compiling an
application -- then use the "--core-library" option to suppress this error
message. If you go ahead and use "--core-library" but are in fact building
an application, then please be aware that your build will still fail at some
point; you will simply be denied the pleasure of reading this helpful error
message.
[2010-07-19 23:29:23 - myProject] 1 error; aborting
[2010-07-19 23:29:23 - myProject] Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1
I was looking for my project to use the package javax, not found, clean all also does not help. what I am doing wrong?
Update
Sorry guys, but I could not find good fix for that, I want to emphasize the fact, that i dont use SocketFactory class in my project at all! source code was not changed before this problem, and that's why i think that problem in eclipse or adt or something else, BUT if i use ant(generated by sdk) to build this project there is no problem!!!
I solve this problem by removing Eclipse, Android SDK, Eclipse workspace, and just reinstall them, after this all works fine for now.
Hope this will help someone.
I had the same problem..
This worked for me
project-->properties->java build path->libraries-> remove all including android jars
now go the project browser, right click on the project you are working on,
then android tools---> fix project properties...
do a clean and then build...
I solved the problem (at least for me).
Here's what I did:
Go to Project » Properties » Java Build Path » Libraries
Remove all except the "Android X.Y" click OK.
Go to Project » Clean » Clean projects selected below » select your project and click OK.
That did the trick for me.
Hope it works for you as well
Update: well actually I might have to retract my opinion.. the actions removed the error messages but now I am missing certain classes and methods... arggghhhh
I just restarted Eclipse, and the error didn't appear anymore!
I had the same problem,and solved it as follows:
First clean all jars; (This problem must because your some jars)
Delete the project;
Reimport project;
Make sure your sdk is right, and project select one sdk version;
(This is my issue to solve the problem) Right click your project, and select "build-path", next select "add Librarys", and add your private jars;
clean-build, the problem has fixed;
I just had the same problem and I tried all of the solutions listed here with no success (I was starting to get annoyed). Then I removed the project from the workspace and then imported it again, and there were no problems!
This happened to me this way,
I have a quite an old project which I had to start working again today. I use 'Universal Image Downloader' library for basically every project where I have to deal with lots of images. So in this old project I had the source files of 'Universal Image Downloader' included to it's 'src' path. Back then I was a newbie and slowly I started developing my own library which could handle every day simple Android development tasks very easily. Obviously I included the 'Universal Image Downloader' to this.
After dusting off the old project today the first thing I did was to reference my library to speed up the development process but as I was trying to debug I ran into the "Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1" over and over again. First I thought it was the support library but even after clearing all libraries and adding only mine and doing a quick 'Fix project properties' I still got it. After trying various solutions I noticed this in the console "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Lcom/nostra13/universalimageloader/cache/disc/BaseDiscCache;"
It was as simple as that... I'm trying to compile a class which has already been compiled.
Solution : I just simply removed all the class files I got from 'Universal Image Downloader' library from the 'src' directory. Since my library references "Universal Image Downloader" library the old project started working just fine.
Hit same problem shown on your log when trying to run an example project which was imported into eclipse.
Additional Info: in eclipse's Problems View I see the following error:
"The project cannot be built until build path errors are resolved"
In my case the imported project find the libraries just right(by just right I mean I can see the external path to each of the android libs in this case 2 libs, android.jar and maps.jar). So no shuffling of libs in my case, but might be your problem.
I followed Spock's suggestion of cleaning the project which I had to clean multiple times until it somehow resolve its issues. After, issue was solved I had to specify an AVD for the project to run and soon after was up and running on the emulator. Also, note that my eclipse is set up to Build Automatically.
In my case I'm not missing any class files or anything after the clean as the build is properly generating them.
Regards!
I was getting the same error. My problem was that i had an android device hooked up to debug with. As soon as I unplugged it I was able to export.
The answer I found was checking the source and library build path in the project's properties. Most likely there will be a duplicate as in something being referenced in both the source and library tabs. So delete the extra in the source tab and then clean the project and you should be good to go.
Either:
javax.net.SocketLibrary is in your source code, or
javax.net.SocketLibrary is included in a JAR file in your project
Under certain conditions it gets its knickers in a twist and the best fix I've found is to remove referenced jars, clean, add them back in and then compile again.
I believe the error can be caused by including the same classes twice.
This error will also occur (and you won't be able to get rid of it by cleaning) when using classes that are not part of the Android environment.
To summarise the information in the link bimbim.in provided (well my understanding when I glanced over it)
The Android Davik VM tries to compile the jars but finds some stuff that it can't compile to .dex files
so
Just create a "lib" directory in the root of the project (where the src, bin res directories are) and add them to the build path. Project Properties... Java Build Path... Libraries.. Add JARs..
I could resolve this issue by creating a new project, looks like the some project settings were creating this issue and could not really find the root cause for that. But, dumping the existing source code onto the new project resovled this issue. If anyone has found the root cause for this problem pls do let me know.
I had the same problem and solved it as follows:
- Go to Project/Properties/Java Build Path/Libraries and remove all JARs except Android
- Do a project clean
- Add the JARs again as External JARs (first time I added them internally, so that might be the problem)
After that the error was gone.
I solved the problem by updating available packages in the Android SDK et AVD manager. No need to remove Eclipse.
Whenever the Project is having the ambitious data. This problem is caused. May be android can't able to find which one choose.
From what I understand, this same cryptic error could be caused from a wide variety of reasons. I've got "Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1" error too. In my case the problem was that for some reason Project -> Properties -> Java Compiler was not set to "Enable project specific settings" with proper Java 1.5 settings, but was left to defaults instead (1.6 in my case). Debug, build and test on devices/emulators worked fine, but export always failed with the above error message.
If unsure about the proper settings, create the same project on some alternative location and just copy all needed files from the old project into the new one. This fixed the issue for me.
The next problem with the same error message came from using proguard. Updating to the latest version by replacing the one that came with android sdk, fixed that.
Hope this helps
My problem was having a jar file in my src folder. Removing jars from the build path works, but only if you don't need the jar in question. For people who need the jar in question, make sure that your jar file is not in the project folder (maybe just src subtree, but I would keep it separate to test). Put it on your desktop or something and try the "Add external jar.." option. Be sure to remove the jar from the project filesystem before adding another external. Having both is what causes the problem.
I have done it as the instruction of the first answer and it works.(Linux)
I think the problem may caused by SDK or ADT updates.
I do have to clear all the lib in Java Building path and then use android tools to fix the project. After cleaning and rebuild, it works as before.
