BUILD FAILED in 1m 47s Exception: Gradle task assembleDebug failed with exit code 1

How can I fix this error.? Below are my build.gradle files:

app\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 plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply from: "$flutterRoot/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/flutter.gradle"

android {
    compileSdkVersion flutter.compileSdkVersion

    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }

    defaultConfig {
        // TODO: Specify your own unique Application ID (https://developer.android.com/studio/build/application-id.html).
        applicationId "com.example.college_club"
        minSdkVersion 21
        targetSdkVersion flutter.targetSdkVersion
        versionCode flutterVersionCode.toInteger()
        versionName flutterVersionName
    }

    buildTypes {
        release {
            // 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 '../..'
}


apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

android\build.gradle:

buildscript {
    ext.kotlin_version = '1.6.10'
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.0'
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

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

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

Solution

Fixed it by adding below line in /android/app/build.gradle

dependencies {
    ....
    implementation ('com.google.android.exoplayer:exoplayer:2.17.0')
}

Try disabling jetifier. stackoverflow.com/questions/51680671/what-is-jetifier

[Sanket Kumar]

@Blundell tried, still same error

[Blundell]

Hmm not sure how you can get a jettifier error if jettifying is turned off? :-) unless you are directly depending on two jettified libraries?

[esentis]

Getting exactly the same error after updating to Kotlin '1.6.10'. Have you found any solutions ?

[Sanket Kumar]

Thanks, but it didn't work, still having the same error

[shuster]

It didn't help :/

[shuster]

Adding this line solves the problem but in this case I have errors in Flutter with assets_audio_player package.

[esentis]

Hey @shuster that's unfortunate. Check this issue github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/100948 it may assist you.

[shuster]

It's related my issue, thanks. But still it didn't solve my problem. I will move to another package.
