It seems like without any reason the Gradle refuses to build the project in Android Studio. I haven't change anything in the configurations and I can't find any reason of this error. The output is the following 

Error:A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.
java.lang.ClassFormatError: Incompatible magic value 931269604 in class file build_f63dreec96sk8elmstb53lfie

No any Android library is recognized. So maybe there might be some problems with sdk but I have checked the dependencies and the path was set correctly. Here is a screenshot of my build.gradle.

I have already tried

1) rebuilding and cleaning the project.

2) File -> invalidate caches and restart

Are there any other ideas about fixing this problem. Thanks in advance

For anyone who finds this in future. I had this issue and resolved it by typing:

gradlew --recompile-scripts

The problem was that Gradle had a precompiled build script from a previous version of Java. The .class file for that script was invalid, hence the error. You need to recompile that script.

    You could try clearing your gradle cache, I imagine you can google to find it. I'm on Windows so it's in my "C:\Users" user profile directory. – davidfrancis Nov 11 '16 at 16:00

Basically, you have a project or module that was compiled using a source JRE version less than a dependency.

Try the following

sourceCompatibility = 1.6 targetCompatibility = 1.6

More information is here Gradle sourceCompatibility has no effect to subprojects
