Cannot access 'kotlin.collections.Collection' which is a supertype of 'org.gradle.api.artifacts.dsl.RepositoryHandler'

Question

I got the above error after i add Plugins{ `kotlin`} to my build.gradle.kts file.

I have Google this problem and rebuild after delete all .gradle、.idea dir, but this problem still occurs. Additionally, i tried invalidate caches, but not work.

Any ideas for this problem?

You can try to delete Cache folder of Android Studio manually ~/Library/Caches/Google/AndroidStudio4.2

I had the same problem when upgrading Android Studio 4.2, Kotlin 1.5, and Gradle 7.0. This solution fixed my problem
