Gradle build failing after update to Android studio 2.3 Canary 3

Question

I\'ve recently updated the android studio version of my project from 2.3 Canary 2 to 2.3 Canary 3. Since then the gradle build is failing every time with this error:

Answer 1

You may face this problem with your previous Project, We will notice that when you create a new application the Gradle build will complete successfully. So just copy paste the grade setting from new project to the previous project.

Steps:

1) Replace Dependencies in build.gradle (project) by this code :

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.0'

2) Replace distributionUrl in Gradle-wrapper.properties by this code:

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

3) Don't forget to use Gradle default wrapper in Project level setting.
