Gradle Build Exception : AAPT process not ready to receive commands

Question

This might be duplicate question but after trying all solution I'm not able to solve following error:

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugResources'.
> Error: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.lang.RuntimeException: AAPT process not ready to receive commands

I tried all except one solution:

sudo apt-get install lib32stdc++6
sudo apt-get install lib32z1

what exactly commands will be before executing this commands?? and if anyone have other solution than this please tell me, It will be very useful..

Answer 1

linux 64ver, install

• lib32stdc++6(or lib32stdc++5)
• lib32z1(maybe its name is lib32zlib)

you can search them here ,to confirm their real names in you linux distro repo. https://pkgs.org/

Answer 2

Go to Project structure by clicking (ctrl+shift+alt+s), in that go to Project tab change Gradle Version to 3.2 and Project Version to 2.2 .

This works fine for me.
