You need to update the version of the gradle tools you are building with. This can be found inside the dependencies section of your build.gradle. You have 3 options you can update to:

The latest stable version referenced in the release channel as of 2nd March, 2017 is

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

Or the latest beta version via preview channel as of 15th February, 2017 is

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.0-beta4'

And the latest alpha version also from the preview channel as of 21st March, 2017 gives you the option to use

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.4.0-alpha3' 

Updating requires you to also upgrade the gradle wrapper. As of 20th February '17, the newest is:

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.4-all.zip

On android studio you can find your wrapper by changing to the project view and looking in gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties

Sometimes after changing wrapper the project will fail to compile with an error like “Minimum supported Gradle version is 2.14.1. Current version is 2.10. Try changing Gradle distribution version to...” despite already having the correct version in gradle-wrapper.properties. If that happens try the following:

Go to Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Gradle

Under Project-level settings ensure that Use default gradle wrapper (recommended) is the selected option, then re-build your project.

(Additional Note: With regards to the alpha and beta versions - there is not always a newer build than the stable version when I check, in those cases I've just given values for the previous version. This allows you to roll back to that version if you experience issues with the released version)

Answer 3

try update gradle to 2.10

for mac, tha path is Android Studio > Preferences > Builds,Execution,Deployment > Build Tools > Gradle

of course you must download gradle 2.10 before

I got the same error on 04/07/2016 with 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0-alpha2' and gradle wrapper 2.10 then, I just changed to

'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0-alpha3'

now I have no problems.

Hope this help peple.
