Gradle failure A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'

Question

I am trying to build the gradle for my app but the build fails

I've looked around some other questions regarding to this issue and I couldn't solve it. Also, I have tried changing the gradle build tool version, adding different lib and some more stuff which didn't mange to solve the problem.

pubspec.yaml

Project level build.gradle

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.0'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
    }
}

rootProject.buildDir = '../build'
subprojects {
    project.buildDir = "${rootProject.buildDir}/${project.name}"
}
subprojects {
    project.evaluationDependsOn(':app')
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

App level build.gradle

def localProperties = new Properties()
def localPropertiesFile = rootProject.file('local.properties')
if (localPropertiesFile.exists()) {
    localPropertiesFile.withReader('UTF-8') { reader ->
        localProperties.load(reader)
    }
}

def flutterRoot = localProperties.getProperty('flutter.sdk')
if (flutterRoot == null) {
    throw new GradleException("Flutter SDK not found. Define location with flutter.sdk in the local.properties file.")
}

def flutterVersionCode = localProperties.getProperty('flutter.versionCode')
if (flutterVersionCode == null) {
    flutterVersionCode = '1'
}

def flutterVersionName = localProperties.getProperty('flutter.versionName')
if (flutterVersionName == null) {
    flutterVersionName = '1.0'
}

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply from: "$flutterRoot/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/flutter.gradle"

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28

    lintOptions {
        disable 'InvalidPackage'
    }

    defaultConfig {
        // TODO: Specify your own unique Application ID (https://developer.android.com/studio/build/application-id.html).
        applicationId "com.example.app"

        targetSdkVersion 28

        versionName flutterVersionName

        multiDexEnabled true
    }

    buildTypes {

            // TODO: Add your own signing config for the release build.
            // Signing with the debug keys for now, so `flutter run --release` works.
            signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
        }
    }
}

flutter {
    source '../..'
}

dependencies {
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'

}

Update 2022-04-26:

It is possible that the root cause is using a Kotlin version which is not compatible with older versions of Gradle. A possible fix is downgrading the version of Kotlin below 1.2.71, or more sensibly, upgrading Gradle.

Update 2019-12-13:

As of Flutter 1.12 (stable) released on Dec 11 2019, Flutter boilerplate now includes gradle distribution 5.6.2 and plugin version 3.5.0 which will hopefully make this a historical SO question. Plugin version 3.5.3 is current, but even version 3.5.0 should fix the issue as initially reported.

Original answer:

This appears to be caused by the Flutter boilerplate specifying an old version of the gradle plugin. I'm still unclear if Flutter package updates in pubspec.yaml/lock are triggering the issue, I rolled back a way but it was still present here.

For some reason this affects my Windows 10 system, but not my Mac development environment. Both are up-to-date (Flutter 1.7.8+hotfix.4) and on the same versions of everything as far as I'm aware. On account of this Windows path separators are used in the notes below.

In android\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties the Flutter boilerplate specifies a gradle distribution of 4.10.2, which supports a plugin version of up to 3.3.2. However, android\build.gradle only depends on plugin version 3.2.1 (classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'). It's unclear why the Flutter boilerplate isn't more internally consistent.

To resolve, change com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1 => com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.2, run flutter clean and try the build again.

According to the gradle release notes, the current (July 2019) version of the plugin and gradle are 3.4.2 and 5.1.1 respectively. I don't know if Flutter officially supports this version, although it seems to work on my project here and a clean build is markedly faster. The release notes cover some of the changes from 3.2.x => 3.3.x => 3.4.x.

To upgrade to the current version, edit android\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties to source gradle 5.1.1, and then you're able to upgrade the gradle plugin to 3.4.2.

gradle-wrapper.properties:

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.1.1-all.zip

build.gradle:

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.2'

Note that once gradle 5.1.1 is being used, you can still set the plugin version back to 3.2.1 to reproduce the issue.

I've opened an issue with the Flutter team to try and understand this better and will update this answer if they come back with anything concrete.

I had the same issue changing google services classpath from 4.3.0 to 4.2.0 made that fixed.

classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.0'

change this into

classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.2.0'
