This is because the className value which you are passing as argument for
forName(String className) method is not found or doesn't exists, or you a re passing the wrong value as the class name. Here is also a link which could help you.

Module not specified

According to the snapshot you have provided this problem is because you have not determined the app module of your project, so I suggest you to choose the app module from configuration. For example:

This happened to me when I started to work with a colleque's project.

He was using jdk 12.0.2 .

If you are suspicious jdk difference might be the case (Your IDE complains about SDK, JDK etc.):

1. Download the appropriate jdk
2. Move new jdk to the folder of your choice. (I use C:\Program Files\Java)
3. On Intellij, click to the dropdown on top middle bar. Click Edit Configurations. Change jdk.
4. File -> Invalidate Caches and Restart.

Answer 4

For IntelliJ IDEA 2019.3.4 (Ultimate Edition), the following worked for me:

1. Find the Environment variables for your project.
2. Specify, from the dropdowns, the values of "Use class path of module:" and "JRE" as in the attached screenshot.

Faced the same issue. To solve it,

• I had to download and install the latest version of gradle using the comand line. $ sdk install gradle using the package manager or $ brew install gradle for mac. You might need to first install brew if not yet.
• Then I cleaned the project and restarted android studio and it worked.
