Failed to apply plugin [id 'com.android.application'] - Minimum supported Gradle version is 4.4

android-studio gradle intellij-idea version
10,100

Solution 1

Default gradle pointer wrong. During update, Android Studio ffailed to update the symlink for gradle:

/usr/local/bin/gradle

Once I manually updated 

ln -s /Users/userx/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-4.4-all/9br9xq1tocpiv8o6njlyu5op1/gradle-4.4/bin/gradle /usr/local/bin/

all builds started working again.

Solution 2

Classpath version in build.gradle project level should be compatible with gradle version in gradle-wrapper.properties file.

in my case:

build.gradle project level:

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.3'

and gradle-wrapper.properties:-

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.4.1-all.zip

    All projects fail to build after updating Android Studio to v3.1.2 from v2.5 

    Failed to apply plugin [id 'com.android.application']
       > Minimum supported Gradle version is 4.4. Current version is 4.1. If using the gradle wrapper, try editing the distributionUrl in /Users/userx/AndroidStudioProjects/GarageTinker/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties to gradle-4.4-all.zip

    I have cleaned my project, restarted Android Studio, and rebooted machine I have even deleted the .gradle folder in the project. It's recreated with a subdirectory of 4.1 - attempting to build after delete.

    gradle-wrapper.properties:

    distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.4-all.zip

    Project Structure:

      This sounds similar to youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-192459 (which is for IntelliJ, not Android Studio) - could that be what you are running into?
