Error:Execution failed for task ':app:packageRelease'. > Unable to compute hash of /../AndroidStudioProjects/../classes.jar

Question

I\'m trying to do a \'release\' build on an Android app and I keep on getting this error of:

Unable to compute hash of /../AndroidStudioProjects/../cl

Answer 1

Disabling the minifyEnabled option from my gradle file corrected the error in my build.

build.gradle

buildTypes {
       release {
              // DISABLE OPTION
              //minifyEnabled true
              proguardFiles 'proguard.cfg'
       }
}
