Android Studio: Gradle Refresh Failed - Could not find com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0-alpha6

Question

I\'ve just pulled down an Android project from git, and Android Studio is giving me the following error whenever I attempt to open it;

Error:Could not find c         


        

Answer 1

This is because the build process is unable to find the dependency in Maven repository. Add jcenter() along with mavenCentral() in your project level build.gradle file.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0'
    }
}
