ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException finished with non-zero exit value 2

Question

today i faced with this build error after trying to build my project, but i have changed nothing, it just popped from nowhere... or i simply don't remember what i have changed. I did one thing, updated build tools but i simply don't use the latest so it should bother the project.

Error:

Error:Execution failed for task ':DoToDoCourierApp:transformClassesWithDexForDebug'.
> com.android.build.transform.api.TransformException: com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command 'C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_45\bin\java.exe'' finished with non-zero exit value 2

I got 3 modules. In the first one is basically a library 'holder' it contains all the compiled libs. The 2 other are 2 application which uses the libraries.

DoToDoEssentials: library module, containing all the compiled libs
DoToDoCourier: App module
DoToDoSender: App module

Here are the gradle files:

I have used this scheme for months and it was worked and now today something happened and i cannot build without error.

So and what should i do with:

ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command 'C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_45\bin\java.exe'' finished with non-zero exit value 2

No hint, no concrete error, just an exception.

What i have tried:

Clean project
Rebuild Project
Run project
Invalidate caches/Restart
Load an older commit

But the issue is still present.

I use Android Studio 1.4

Please help if you can.

how did you fix it? I have the same problem – vanomart Dec 09 '15 at 04:51 — vanomart, Dec 09 '15 at 04:51
Both of those pugins should be version `1.5.0`. – Jared Burrows Dec 09 '15 at 08:17 — Jared Burrows, Dec 09 '15 at 08:17

370 views and still no response after a month.

I was able to reproduce this strange thing that happens after you either update build tools or try to make your app multidex. You will usually get some TransformException (gradle inner exception) which does not tell you much, but and after you compile with --info --debug you will probably notice that it's an error with GC overhead (it's out of memory).

For the fix of the memory limit you can check related thread here on SO: Android Studio Google JAR file causing GC overhead limit exceeded error but if you need quick fix, add this javaMaxHeapSize to your dexOptions as follows:

android {
    ...   
    dexOptions {
        incremental = true;
        preDexLibraries = false
        javaMaxHeapSize "4g" // 2g should be also OK
    }
    ...
}

PS: for some explanation of the options see this thread: how can I use Android dexOptions?
