From ERROR :rendering problems The following classes could not be found android.support.v7.internal.widget.ActionBarOverlayLayout.

Fix res/values/styles.xml like so:

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"/>

Detailed explanation as requested: Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar is a subclass of the superclass Base anyway. Ctrl+click (Android Studio) on it and you will be taken to the source:

<style name="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar" />

We didn't change anything, we just defined it more precisely.
