Unable to find method 'org.gradle.api.file.ProjectLayout.files([Ljava/lang/Object;)Lorg/gradle/api/file/FileCollection;'

Hi guys,

I'm trying to add Aspectj on my android application, but I'm currently facing an error when I try to sync the gradle files:

Unable to find method 'org.gradle.api.file.ProjectLayout.files([Ljava/lang/Object;)Lorg/gradle/api/file/FileCollection;'

I'm currently using AS 3.2.1 and Gradle 4.6

Hi!
Does it the latest 3.3.0 plugin?

[luanalbineli]

Hi @Archinamon, sorry to forget to mention it, but yes, it's 3.3.0. I also tested with 3.2.0.

Possible causes for this unexpected error include:

• Gradle's dependency cache may be corrupt (this sometimes occurs after a network connection timeout.)
  Re-download dependencies and sync project (requires network)
• The state of a Gradle build process (daemon) may be corrupt. Stopping all Gradle daemons may solve this problem.
  Stop Gradle build processes (requires restart)
• Your project may be using a third-party plugin which is not compatible with the other plugins in the project or the version of Gradle requested by the project.

In the case of corrupt Gradle processes, you can also try closing the IDE and then killing all Java processes.
same issue here...

@luanalbineli try to update Android Gradle plugin to 3.0.1 at least or higher.

@Archinamon Hi, sorry for the late reply, but I'm also using Android Gradle plugin 3.2.1, the lastest version.

[srouvier]

Hi,

I had the same issue and I solved it by using 3.3.1 version of Android Gradle plugin

[DJAG95]

Hi,

i find my solution changing
distributionUrl from gradle-wrapper.propierties, in my case, cordova create with other no compatible version of gradle

distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.10.1-all.zip

after change, reload the download,

i hope this reply can help anyone

[brianlmerritt]

Can confirm 4.10.3 works with cordova and ionic 5. It then does a gradle upgrade to 6.1.1 optionally which sets everything up ok and it works

[Alexufo]

I was helped by gradle version downgrade 6>5
