Gradle 3.0 BuildException cannot create directory

I'm on windows and updated to Android Studio (AS) 3.0 RC1. When I try to built our project with gradle via AS or terminal it stops, the Stacktrace is at the end. The weird part is, that on my colleagues Mac it just builts.

So I'm guessing something is wrong with the path. I couldn't find anything specific about this BuildException. Anyone has any idea why the path looks duplicated? C:\Development\Workspace\Project\app\build\outputs\apk\Test\debug\C:\Development\Workspace\Project\app\build\outputs\apk\Test\debug

What else can I try to fix this? I cleaned, rebuilt and restarted everything I could.

Update I just updated AS to 3.0 RC 2 and still get the same problem.

Update Same happens with the stable AS 3.0 Release :(

>FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:packageTestDebug'.
> Cannot create directory C:\Development\Workspace\Project\app\build\outputs\apk\Test\debug\C:\Development\Workspace\Project\app\build\outputs\apk\Test\debug

* Try:
Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

* Exception is:
org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskExecutionException: Execution failed for task ':app:packageTestDebug'.

Why is my Gradle build failing?

In some cases when your Gradle files are deleted or corrupted you will not be able to download new Gradle files in android studio. In this case, we have to delete the Gradle files which are present already and then again sync your project to download our Gradle files again.

How do I disable Gradle offline mode?

View > Tool Windows > Gradle from the menu bar. Then, near the top of the Gradle window, click Toggle Offline Mode Gradle offline button in the Gradle panel. Go to File -> Settings. Then uncheck -> Offline work on the right.

What is the difference between API and implementation scopes?

The api configuration should be used to declare dependencies which are exported by the library API, whereas the implementation configuration should be used to declare dependencies which are internal to the component.

With the stable release of Android Studio 3.0 I digged a little deeper. Turns out our script for naming the APK didn't work, but was only breaking on Windows.

Old Script:

applicationVariants.all { variant ->
    variant.outputs.each { output ->
        def outputFile = output.outputFile
        if (outputFile != null && outputFile.name.endsWith('.apk')) {
            def fileName = outputFile.name.replace('.apk', "-${versionName}.apk")
            output.outputFile = new File(outputFile.parent, fileName)
        }
    }
}

Fixed Script:

applicationVariants.all { variant ->
    variant.outputs.all {
        outputFileName = "${variant.name}-${variant.versionName}.apk"
    }
}
