Android gradle 3.0.0 - Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream

Question

After updating android studio to 3.0 and switching to gradle plugin 3.0.0 I am getting this error:

Gradle \'...\' project refresh failed
    Err         


        

Answer 1

I have also been experiencing this error with gradle 4.0.0 and 4.0.1. Unfortunately deleting the Users//.gradle folder didn't do the trick. I had to uninstall and re-install android studio along with deleting the Users//.gradle folder again
