Build errors after Android Studio 3.2.1 upgrade
I am building a sample project from Udacity. This was working fine till now, but after upgrading to Android Studio 3.2.1, I am facing the build error below.
Gradle version: 4.6
Project link: https://github.com/udacity/ud851-Sunshine/tree/student/S02.02-Solution-Menus
Could not find com.android.tools.build:aapt2:3.2.1-4818971**. Searched in the following locations:

How can I fix it?
For Android Studio 3.2.1 update
Just add google()
in root level build.gradle
buildscript {
repositories {
google() // <--here
jcenter()
}
}
allprojects {
repositories {
google() // <-- here
jcenter()
}
}
and see the magic - error is gone.
The project gradle
version is pretty old:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'
And you are using Android Studio v3.2.1 so, update the gradle
:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0' // or 3.2.1 maybe
Also, as you can see, it was looking for some packages in :
file:/C:/Users/sandeepk2/AppData/Local/Android/Sdk/extras/m2repository/com/android/tools/build/aapt2/3.2.1-4818971/aapt2-3.2.1-4818971.pom
Which means you probably forgot to add google()
as the top level repository. Just add google()
to your repositories in your root build.gradle
.
