android studio is giving an error when i build

Question

I am trying to build an android app for the google playstore and when i change the build type to "release " from debug,it gives me the error bellow:

Error:(4) Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Inverse'.
Error:(34) Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:Widget.Material.Button.Colored'.
Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'.
com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command 'C:\Users\bridging\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\build-tools\21.1.2\aapt.exe'' finished with non-zero exit value 1

Could you be more specific? Did you define correctly android.signingConfigs object in your gradle file? — uelordi, Jun 17 '16 at 11:51

@Ironman do you mean this file compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:24.0.0-beta1' — Johnson Mizzy Dubula, Jun 17 '16 at 12:00

Your compile SDK version must match the support library's major version.

Since you are using version 23 of the support library, you need to compile against version 23 of the Android SDK.

Alternatively if you can continue compiling against version 22 of the Android SDK by switching to the latest support library v22.

Update :

see in the screen both are same 23 you have to check.

if comileSdkVersion 22 and make round corner all to 22.
