Gradle failure when building Flutter app: Error while executing JdkImageTransform in Android Studio: Could not resolve all files for configuration

Question

I recently updated Android Studio to Ladybug and since then I encounter this error when i try to build my app:

Launching lib\main.dart on sdk gphone64 x86 64 in debug mode...
Running Gradle task 'assembleDebug'...

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':path_provider_android:compileDebugJavaWithJavac'.
> Could not resolve all files for configuration ':path_provider_android:androidJdkImage'.
   > Failed to transform core-for-system-modules.jar to match attributes {artifactType=_internal_android_jdk_image, org.gradle.libraryelements=jar, org.gradle.usage=java-runtime}.
      > Execution failed for JdkImageTransform: C:\Users\ilsim\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platforms\android-34\core-for-system-modules.jar.
         > Error while executing process C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jbr\bin\jlink.exe with arguments {--module-path C:\Users\ilsim\.gradle\caches\transforms-3\4a46fc89ed5f9adfe3afebf74eb8bfeb\transformed\output\temp\jmod --add-modules java.base --output C:\Users\ilsim\.gradle\caches\transforms-3\4a46fc89ed5f9adfe3afebf74eb8bfeb\transformed\output\jdkImage --disable-plugin system-modules}

I've never touched the Gradle configuration files and the code but before the update everything worked fine, also I do not use the package path_provider in my app. So can someone help me solve the problem?

Hypothermia

I also had to go back to JDK 17 (from JDK 21) and update the gradle package to version 8.3. Then everything worked fine – Bigwig

@Bigwig how did you drop from JDK 21 to 17? – Lizbeth

Answer 2

If this answer didn't solve your problem, try this:

1. Change this lines in android/app/build.gradle file:

        android {    
        compileSdk 35
        ndkVersion "25.1.8937393"
    
        ///
    
        compileOptions {
            sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_17
            targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_17
        }
        kotlinOptions {
            jvmTarget = 17
        }
    }

2. Change distributionUrl in android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties file:

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-8.10.2-all.zip

3. Change these three lines in android/setting.gradle file:

    id "com.android.application" version "8.3.2" apply false
    id "com.google.gms.google-services" version "4.4.2" apply false // only if you are using firebase
    id "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android" version "2.0.20" apply false

4. Lastly, open android project separately and wait for initial project build, then open Project Structure and set "all" variables in Modules section like it:

---

UPDATE: Also set flutter's JDK dir with this command. Dont forget to change directory based on your JDK actual directory.

flutter config --jdk-dir="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17"
