Android Studio / Intellij, Gradle Error:Cause: peer not authenticated

Question

Having a fight with IntelliJ at the moment. The darn thing won\'t download Gradle 2.1

I have an Android project hosted on GitHub, which I have cloned to my laptop.

Answer 1

Change your repositories syntax in build.gradle as following. See following question.

repositories {
    jcenter {
        url "http://jcenter.bintray.com/"
    }
}

Answer 2

yeah I experienced exactly same situation It is not easy, but now I'm clear

I changed the build.gradle located in project forlder, not in app folder

I changed as below

repositories {
    jcenter 
    { 
        url 'http://jcenter.bintray.com' 
    } 
}

instead of

repositories {
    jacenter()
}

Answer 3

in case when there are some problems with internet try to add a line

54.231.14.232 s3.amazonaws.com

to your /etc/hosts (..\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts)

Answer 4

"Error:Cause: peer not authenticated."

As this occurs I using Ubuntu: When I changed version on android studio 2.0 9 preview beta 1.

How do I fix my gradle.

Simply created a new project in android studio and then went in and saw build.grandle version gradle in my case:  

 dependencies {
         classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.0.0-beta1'
     }

and replace in my project.

I hope it helps others.

Answer 5

you should import the certificate:

First of all download the certificate (.cer) from this url, Help is here

Copy it to the path JDK_HOME/jre/lib/security

Then with command prompt targeted to above location, run the following command:

keytool -import -alias git -file <cert_file_name_you_exported.cer> -keystore cacerts -storepass changeit

Type yes if it prompts for approval, after that open the desired IDEA and have fun :)

If this doesn't help, try importing the certificate to JRE/lib/security/cacerts, It's totally depend on the build path of the IDEA you are using

Answer 6

Like BzH :

This is a Java SSL connection error I solved on Github here.

You need to add the appropriate SSL certificate to the java keystore for java accept the connection.

Work fine :)
