Could not get unknown property 'manifestOutputDirectory'

Question

I\'m trying to "make project" with Android Studio, and I\'m getting this error:

Execution failed for task \':myApp:processGoogleDebugManifest\'.

Answer 1

I encountered this same issue today, in my case it was caused by an outdated version of Huawei's AG Connect plugin. I was using com.huawei.agconnect:agcp:1.2.1.301, but when I updated it to com.huawei.agconnect:agcp:1.4.1.300 the issue was fixed.

But if Huawei's plugin is not the problem you are having, you can debug the issue by running gradle with --stacktrace option to see where the issue originates from. In Android Studio you can add command line options for gradle in Settings/Build, Execution, Deployment/Compiler/Command-line options.
