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 got an stacktrace similar to yours only when building to Lollipop or Marshmallow, and the solution was to disable Advanved profiling.

Find it here:

Run -> Edit Configurations -> Profiling -> Enable advanced profiling
