Package name does not correspond to the file path

Question

My android studio project is compiling as it should, but there's one annoying issue. Android studio gives me this warning:

Package name does not correspond to the file path

The file path declared in the source code is something like com.example.<classes> but it asks me to rename it to main.src.com.example.<classes> When I do that, it no longer compiles.

My source code is in the src/main/src folder. My build.gradle contains this

sourceSets {
        main {
            java.srcDirs = ['src']
        }

        instrumentTest.setRoot('tests')
    }

Answer 1

Since your gradle.build file is in the main directory, it views the first src folder as the one containing the source. Try changing java.srcDirs to ['src/main/src'].
