Android Studio 2.3 gradle error

Question

After Android Studio update to 2.3, I'm getting the following error.

Console output message

Error:Unable to load class 'org.gradle.logging.StyledTextOutput'. Possible causes for this unexpected error include:

Gradle's dependency cache may be corrupt (this sometimes occurs after a network connection timeout.) Re-download dependencies and sync project (requires network)
The state of a Gradle build process (daemon) may be corrupt. Stopping all Gradle daemons may solve this problem. Stop Gradle build processes (requires restart)
Your project may be using a third-party plugin which is not compatible with the other plugins in the project or the version of Gradle requested by the project.

In the case of corrupt Gradle processes, you can also try closing the IDE and then killing all Java processes.

Someone getting the same error?

Try to check all your dependencies in build.gradle and update them if needed. In my case updating dexcount gradle plugin solved the problem.

Thank you! That was the reason for me I updated from `0.5.4` to `0.6.2` – Roman Nazarevych Mar 06 '17 at 10:34
Any idea, why dex-count caused this problem, and why updating the library fixed that? – Alexander Pacha Mar 08 '17 at 20:02

Thank you! I had the same problem with dex-count. – texnedo Nov 27 '17 at 11:19
I have deleted all dependencies, and disabled all plugins and am getting the same error. I've tried clearing cache, manually downloading gradle, restarted several times, I cannot get rid of this error. Is there anything else that might cause this? – JStephen Sep 10 '19 at 03:09

After update to Android Studio 2.3, the gradle path wasn't update.

Try to check your settings:

Why is this preferred to **default wrapper**? – IgorGanapolsky Jul 04 '17 at 20:04

None of these worked for me. Upgrading from android studio 3.3 to 3.4 solved the problem.
