This error gets thrown when you try to run flutter build apk command (at least, it was in my case) while not being in the project directory. Usually, a flutter app's project directory path (let's say it is in F drive, and inside a folder named apps, is as: F:\Apps\app_name

I had the same issue, and the culprit in my case was this path: F:\Apps\app_name\android which is without a doubt, NOT a project directory. So, all I had to do was type this command in terminal: cd .. which takes to the parent directory.

So, before running the command, make sure to check out the directory being shown in terminal.
