Compilation with Kotlin compile daemon was not successful

Question

I had this error in my project. However couldn't find anywhere how to resolve it. Anyone has this problem?

It causes the build being run all over again every time.

Compilation with Kotlin compile daemon was not successful

Could not connect to kotlin daemon. Using fallback strategy.

Solution 1

Make changes in Gradle.properties

make the JVM 1024 or 512 as required(for me 1024 works fine always);

then Make these changes in the app-level Gradle file.

dependencies {
    
        implementation 'androidx.multidex:multidex:2.0.1'
    }
    
    defaultConfig {
        multiDexEnabled true
    }

Solution 2

Increasing heap space of Gradle JVM worked for me

To do this add (1000 MiB in this example)

org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1000m

to your gradle.properties file.

If there is no gradle.properties in your project just create one near build.gradle/build.gradle.kts
