Android Studio - Failed to notify project evaluation listener error

Question

Following is the build.gradle code in Android Studio

apply plugin: \'com.android.application\'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion \"23         


        

Answer 1

In my case, I had to do -

File -> Sync Project with Gradle Files

Answer 2

had similar problem, issue was different versions of included library. to find out what causes problem run build command with stacktrace

./gradlew build --stacktrace

Answer 3

I had buildToolsVersion "27.0.1", upgrading it to 27.0.2 fixed the issue.

Also, my android support deps were at version 27.0.2 so they were not aligned to the buildToolsVersion

Answer 4

Just restart Android Studio - Usually then everything works again. (Invalidate Caches + Restart is actually not required).

Answer 5

I have met the similar problem.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.
> Failed to notify project evaluation listener.
   > org.gradle.api.tasks.compile.CompileOptions.setBootClasspath(Ljava/lang/String;)V

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 5.0.
Use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings.
See https://docs.gradle.org/5.0-milestone-1/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings

BUILD FAILED in 7s
Build step 'Invoke Gradle script' changed build result to FAILURE
Build step 'Invoke Gradle script' marked build as failure
Finished: FAILURE

The key is you need to get a way to solve this kind of problems,not to solve this problem.

According to the log above,the most important information is:

Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

Most of the building problems of Gradle will be solved because when you use the specific Gradle build command,you can get more detailed and useful information that are clear.

*clean project
./gradlew clean  

*build project
./gradlew build

*build for debug package
./gradlew assembleDebug or ./gradlew aD

*build for release package
./gradlew assembleRelease or ./gradlew aR

*build for release package and install
./gradlew installRelease or ./gradlew iR Release

*build for debug package and install
./gradlew installDebug or ./gradlew iD Debug

*uninstall release package
./gradlew uninstallRelease or ./gradlew uR

*uninstall debug package
./gradlew uninstallDebug or ./gradlew uD 

*all the above command + "--info" or "--debug" or "--scan" or "--stacktrace" can get more detail information.

And then I found the problem is related with the version of Gradle,when I have changed Gradle from 5.0 to 4.1,and then it's OK.

For me I had to specifically stop the gradlew and clear caches and this fixed my issues:

./gradlew --stop
// Delete all cache files in your project. With git: `git -xfd clean` 
// Delete global cache dir. On Mac it is located in `~/.gradle/caches
