A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks

Question

I am getting this error while I am building APK.

Cause 1: org.gradle.workers.internal.DefaultWorkerExecutor$WorkExecutionException: A failure occurred while          


        

Answer 1

I already had multidex enabled but the version was too old so upgraded and it fixed the issue:

// Old version
implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'

// New version
def multidex_version = "2.0.1"
implementation 'androidx.multidex:multidex:$multidex_version'
