Failed to resolve: support-fragment error when add google architecture component dependency

Question

I want to use Google architecture components in my app, but after updating android studio to version 3.1.1 when I add android.arch.lifecycle:extensions:1.1.1 depend

Answer 1

I had a similar error and changing the repositories order so that google() comes before jcenter() fixed it.

I had to change the order for the repositories within buildscript and allprojects in the top level build.gradle file.
