Android studio AAPT: error failed writing to R.txt: the data is invalid

问题

I am having an issue with building new projects on android studio. I keep on getting the error:

Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'.
> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade
   > Android resource linking failed
     AAPT: error: failed writing to 'D:\Libraries\Documents\AndroidStudio\SocketTest\app\build\intermediates\runtime_symbol_list\debug\R.txt': The data is invalid. (13).

Here is my project build.gradle

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    buildToolsVersion "29.0.2"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.sockettest"
        minSdkVersion 26
        targetSdkVersion 28
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"

        testInstrumentationRunner "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }

    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility = 1.8
        targetCompatibility = 1.8
    }

}

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])

    implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.1.0'
    implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:1.1.3'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.ext:junit:1.1.1'
    androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.2.0'
}

This problem only occurs on new projects I try to build and isn't an issue on older ones. I have read through R.txt': The data is invalid. (13) which leads to Long package name build error in Android Studio which still does not solve the problem.

I only encounter this issue while using windows 10 (update 1909), and not while using android studio on ubuntu. I am running android studio version 3.6.2

回答1:

In case someone new to android studios like me does not know how to downgrade Gradle and plugin, here's how (windows):

Select File>Project Structure.
Type in (3.6.3) the Android Gradle Plugin Version.
Type/select (6.0) from dropdown menu the Gradle Version.
Hit OK to Save.

Android Studios will download and set up the new Gradle for the current project. This resolved the data is invalid error for me.

回答2:

Was getting the same error. I realized it had something to do with the Gradle version I was running, even though I usually stick to the stable channel of releases. I ended up downgrading to plugin version: 3.6.3 & Gradle version 6.0. I had previously been on plugin version 4.0.0 & Gradle version 6.1.1.

I don't know if this was for sure the same issue, this was happening to any projects on my Win10 PC (ver 2004) that were running that Gradle version.
