Thank you very much!!! I spent 3 days trying to resolve this. I searched many sites and nothing was helpful. Thank you, again! – Sugihara

Answer 2

If it happens locally, just delete the corrupted cache and restart Android Studio (or IntelliJ IDEA). Cache location for Gradle is in ~/.gradle.

If you want to clear cache in Circle CI, refer to this article: Clear project dependency cache

Source: a similar question.

how does one know which cache files are corrupt or should we delete full .grandle caches? – Pycnidium

@KarueBensonKarue the jar file I saw in the stack trace was corrupted, so it was enough to delete just that file. – Chamomile

Answer 3

The solution is to update your gradle to version 8.2.1 or above. Here is a helpful article I used to diagnose the issue.

The JdkImageTransformDelegate task did not work with jdk 21+ since it expects a few different flags from the gradle, which is why switching back to jdk 17 fixes the issue as well. They fixed it in this commit. While you can just go back to jdk 17, if you already have a project using jdk 21, it is best practice to keep it the same, to guarantee the same functionality in your apps.

Using latest Gradle version solved my problem. Thanks a lot. – Tale

Answer 4

Turned out that TalkingDataSDK jar was big in size so we had to install git lfs on CI to fix the issue.

I faced similar issues in my flutter project.

Execution failed for task ':flutter_cast_video:parseDebugLocalResources'.

What helped me was reinstalling the SDK Platforms from the Android SDK

Android Studio => Settings => Language & Framework => Android SDK => SDK Platform

Uncheck all the boxes and click Apply it will uninstall all the platforms. Then just run the code the android studio will take care of the necessary things.
