Can't run nor debug project but gradle build+install work

Question

After update to Android studio 3.6 Canary11 (macOS) I cannot run nor run Debug variants of my project (Release variants working fine).

When I try to run the project

Answer 1

try build.gradle

android {
    packagingOptions {
    pickFirst  'firebase-abt.properties'
    }
}

Answer 2

I faced somehow similar issue on Android Studio 3.6.3v

Entry name 'kotlin/collections/MapWithDefault.kotlin_metadata' collided

I resolved the issue by:

1. Delete build folder under /app
2. Clean project
3. Rebuild project

If still doesn't work, do the following:

File > Invalidate Caches/Restart

Answer 3

If anyone is still facing this issue, try this -

1. Step 1

File > Invalidate Caches/Restart

2. Step 2

Rebuild Project

Answer 4

I had a similar issue with Android Studio 3.6 Canary 12 on Mac, I could build different build variants but had this error when I tried to Generate a signed apk:

Entry name 'kotlin/collections/MapWithDefault.kotlin_metadata' collided

I had to delete the .build folder as well as the folders where I build my build variant.

Answer 5

I just had a similar issue - my generating a debug build variant kept failing with an error about "Entry name res/layout/test_toolbar.xml collided". There is no "test_toolbar_xml" anywhere in my project. I first deleted all build directories and tried - same result. then I went in and deleted caches under .gradle\5.6.4, and under .idea folders. Tried again and this time I was able to build.

Building a "release" variant worked every time.
