Exception: Gradle task assembleDebug failed with exit code 1

I am not changed any Gradle or manifest today, just the same code from yesterday What I have been done is

1. Flutter Clean
2. Invalidate Caches / Restart Android Studio
3. Update Flutter Version and any Plugin (Currently I am using 2.06 Stable Channel)
4. Follow This GitHub issue (https://github.com/Baseflow/flutter-geolocator/issues/647) but I got another error while upgrade the Gradle version , something like manifest doesn't found

distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.6.2-all.zip

I'm using this latest version package Geolocator

https://pub.dev/packages/geolocator

Update

Change the distribution URL into 
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.0-all.zip
Fix my problem 

Answer 1

Try using the following distributionUrl in your gradle-wrapper.properties: distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.7-all.zip

And the following classpath in dependencies in your build.gradle file: classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.0

Looking at the Flutter 2.0.5 Stable channel, these are the right settings. This fixed the problem for me.
