Plugin is too old, please update to a more recent version,or set ANDROID_DAILY_OVERRIDE (Note:I use Android Studio 2.0 Preview 9 Version)

Question

I worked on my project issueless last night but this morning suddenly I got this error:

Plugin is too old, please update to a more recent version, or set ANDROID_DAILY_OVERRIDE environment variable to "4a50f93953bc93b160920b1956a20e4942372a86"

Error:(1, 1) A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.
> Failed to apply plugin [id 'com.android.application']
   > Could not create plugin of type 'AppPlugin'.

I use Android Studio 2.0 Preview 9 Version

I checked to update and download new version tools from SDK Manager

I download gradle 2.11 and changed gradle distribution from file/Settings/gradle on Android Studio

All this solution can not solve my problem yet.

Any idea or solution about this error ?

My build.gradle(Module) Partititon

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.2"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.myproject.myprojectname"
        minSdkVersion 15
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:23.1.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.1.1'
}

My build.gradle(Project) Partition

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.0.0-alpha9'
        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

I tried answers from that question but not one of work for me. — Emre Tekin, Mar 10 '16 at 10:18
Don't download your own gradle distribution.... That's what the gradle wrapper is for... Just change the gradle version in the gradle.properties for of your wrapper to update to a newer version. — Xaver Kapeller, Mar 10 '16 at 10:19

cahnge 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.0.0-alpha9' to 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.0.0-alpha6'

or try to update the ide (in the dev channel) and it will fix it self

Other answers here are correct but out of date, because this question does not get as much traffic.

This error indicates you are using a development environment that is far enough out of date that it could cause weird side effects, the solution is of course to upgrade to a more recent version.

I maintain an answer with a list of the most current versions here:

Android Studio 2.0 - Plugin is too old, please update to a more recent version, or set ANDROID_DAILY_OVERRIDE
