BUILD FAILED in 57s Exception: Gradle task assembleDebug failed with exit code 1

its seems missing character.dart and some gradle stuff, but i couldn't find exact problem and answer for now on google,

But if i make and run a new project it doesn't have any error, herewith my pubspec.yaml (i've compared old & new project pubspec.yaml there is no significant different exept for additional package):

Answer 1

It looks like you’re missing characters package in your pubspec.yaml.

Make sure it is there and your pubspec is formatted properly. And run flutter pub get again.

If this fails, you should run flutter pub cache repair

Answer 2

Had the same issue.

In pubspec.yaml just execute flutter pub get and flutter pub upgrade.

Then in the root directory terminal execute flutter clean and it will run without problems.
