I am using Fabrics Crashlytics and i got the same error after updating my Android plugin for Gradle to version 4.1:

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.0-rc01'

I need to upgrade gradle plugin to upload native debug symbols to Google play console as stated in this link. https://developer.android.com/studio/preview/features#native-crash-symbolization

To use Android plugin for gradle version 4.1, your minimum gradle version needs to be version 6.5. I used gradle version 6.5.1

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.5.1-all.zip

Upgrading from Fabric Crashlytics to Firebase Crashlytics solved the issue for me, this could be because fabric is not compatible with the newer versions of Android plugin for gradle.
