You have an invalid combination of project settings in your Gradle build files, probably caused by your installing the M Developer Preview bits from the SDK Manager.

Unless you are specifically trying to test the M Developer Preview, change your buildToolsVersion to be 22.0.1 in your app module's build.gradle file. Right now, it is probably something like 23.0.0_rc1.

  • Hai ,can you explain why this error occurs again and again at every new app creation.Any proper solution for this problem???. – jibinz Jun 06 '15 at 10:31
  • @jibinz: "can you explain why this error occurs again and again at every new app creation" -- because you still have the M Developer Preview bits installed. Perhaps Android Studio 1.3 helps here, but that's still in the Canary channel, so I have not touched it. "Any proper solution for this problem?" -- since I have no idea what you would consider a "proper solution" to be, I cannot help you. – CommonsWare Jun 06 '15 at 10:54

May be you are using the Build Tools 23.0.0_rc1. In this case you have to use the gradle plugin 1.3.0-beta1.

buildscript {
     ...
     dependencies {
         classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.3.0-beta1'
         ...
     }
}

If you are using the build tools 22.0.1, you can use the gradle plugin 1.1.x or 1.2.x

I was also facing the same problem.

Select the app folder and press F4. It'll open the Modular Settings.

(Right-clicking and selecting 'Open Modular Settings' will also do.)

Change 'Build tool version to "22.0.1" from "23.0.0 rc1".

Now this should work.

Downgrading "Build tool version" is a workaround, not a solution.
