Question

Following is the build.gradle code in Android Studio

    buildToolsVersion \"23         


        

Answer 1

I also encountered this error when updating to 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0'

To fix it, I had to add the google() repo to both the buildscript and module repositories. The documentation here only mentions adding to to the buildscript.

Project-level build.gradle

buildscript {
    repositories {
        ...
        // You need to add the following repository to download the
        // new plugin.
        google()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0'
    }
}

App-level build.gradle

repositories {
    ...
    // Documentation doesn't specify this, but it must be added here
    google()
}

gradle-wrapper.properties

...
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.1-all.zip

Answer 2

The only thing that helped me was to use the system gradle instead of Android Studio's built-in:

SETTINGS -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Gradle

Select Use local gradle distribution. To find the path, you can do which gradle where the which program is supported. It might be /usr/bin/gradle.

See also Error:Could not initialize class com.android.sdklib.repositoryv2.AndroidSdkHandler for another possible cause.

Answer 3

First Step:File → Settings → Build, Execution, Deployment → Instant Run and uncheck Enable Instant Run. Second step: Press Invalidate/Restart. done.... Enjoy.

Answer 4

I am facing same error before a week I solve by disabling the Instant Run

File → Settings → Build, Execution, Deployment → Instant Run and uncheck Enable Instant Run.

Hope it works.

Note This answer works on below Android Studio 3

Answer 5

The problem is probably you're using a Gradle version rather than 3. go to gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties and change the last line to this:

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.3-all.zip

Answer 6

I had this issue because I was using Charles proxy on my computer and the SSL was enabled for all hosts. And since AS didn't trust my proxy, the network request failed. So I had to disable SSL for all hosts and restart my Android Studio.
