Getting error after importing project to android studio

Question

I'm getting this error when trying to run the project:

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'.
> com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: Failed to execute aapt

My gradle:

buildscript {
        repositories {
            maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
        }

        dependencies {
            classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.+'
        }
    }

    buildscript {
        repositories {

            repositories {
                maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
            }
            maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
        }

        dependencies {
            classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.+'
        }
    }
    repositories {

    }
    apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
    apply plugin: 'io.fabric'

I have this project on two computers, one which I wrote the code on and one that I sent the code to. The project is built fine on the first computer but from some reason it doesn't work on second one.

I think it has something to do with the gradle version, I updated Android studio version and the gradle version... Please help...

Also: The R resources cannot be resolved which means resources linking failed too.

your intuition is correct! possibly due to the grade version line:

For me it helped to change the version of buildTools to:

buildToolsVersion "21.0.1" You will find this setting inside the file app/build.gradle.

source: Execution failed app:processDebugResources Android Studio

edit: if you updated to android studio 3.0 I also have the warning about SDK build tools version. Might need to change the version to "21.0.2" instead.
