no cached version available for offline mode

Question

At office, I am behind a proxy. The internet access is restricted.

So I performed a gradle sync at home and copied the folder \".gradle\" present at C:\\Users\\user

Answer 1

It seems that in newer versions of IntelliJ (I am on 2018.1) you may need to uncheck the Offline checkbox in Gradle preferences.

Answer 2

I had to dig for this a long time in the 2019.2 version. This option has moved in the UI. It is now in the toolbar of the gradle tools:

see JetBrains documentation at https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/jetgradle-tool-window.html#offline

Answer 3

I'm using android studio in MacBook

step 1 - Go to preferences by clicking android studio on the left uppermost corner.

step 2 - Go inside Build,Execution,Deployment.

step 3 - Finally select Gradle.

step 4 - then, uncheck offline work. Click apply then ok.

step 5- lastly try to sync once again.

Hope this will work because it works for me.

Answer 4

Maybe helps someone. Just remove --offline in "Command-line Options:"

Answer 5

This Error occurs when in your Android Studio's Gradle Tools Offline Mode option is Enabled.

When Enabled it lookes like this.

To fix it, you can Disable mode by clicking on the option shown in below screenshot.

You need to re-enable your gradle online mode

Google changed the location of doing this... After the latest version as at this time i am typing this answer, which is version below Android Studio 3.6.1 built on February 27, 2020

I have sent a message to the them so Google changes this in next update..Cos the new location confuses the Software engineers who are used to the old way of doing it... But for now follow these clear 2 steps to find it and toggle it Online or Offline easily..

1. Just Go to the top-right hand corner of your SDK and click the vertical Gradle tab as circled in red in the my picture below...

2. Then you Click this icon (which looks like a symbol in an electrical schematic circuit) on the gradle table that comes out.. As Circled in Red in my picture below..
