I added BottomNavigationView and then things started to complicate. I don't know what's causing this error, when I build project it's okay but then when I want to play app in emulator - this error pops up.

Here is my build.gradle:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.pokrz.x"
        minSdkVersion 22
        targetSdkVersion 28
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
    packagingOptions {
        exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
        exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
        exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
        exclude 'META-INF/license.txt'
        exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
        exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
        exclude 'META-INF/notice.txt'
        exclude 'META-INF/ASL2.0'
    }

}

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha3'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.2'

    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'

    implementation 'com.parse:parse-android:1.16.3'
    implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.0.0-beta01'
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

I don't know what else I can do. I'm sooooo done with it.

Add a new exclude line with the path that is causing the error : exclude 'META-INF/androidx.legacy_legacy-support-core-utils.version'

This message appears when upgrading Android Studio and has to do with Gradle Plugin Version and Gradle Version. I've seen the error with:

  • Android Gradle Plugin Version 3.6.2
  • Gradle Version 6.3
  • Build: Generate APK Debug

However, build was OK when generating the APK Release. More importantly, it was OK too by switching the Android Gradle Plugin Version to 3.5.0, 3.6.0, 3.6.1... and then rebuilding. Finally, it worked again well with 3.6.2 (latest version as of this writing) after switching once or twice the plugin version.

So, just play with it until you reach a combination that works. Further, try back the latest plugin version, as it seems to be just a bug of Android Studio when upgrading.

(Conclusion: No need to add 100 exclude statements in your build.gradle)

Today, I was having the same problem. Below solution did not work for me

  1. Clean the project
  2. Invalidate case and restart

I solved that by deleting the folder. If you are facing this problem via creating release build then delete release folder and if you are facing this problem via creating debug build then delete debug folder. And now you are good to go. Now you can create signed APK. It may help others. enter image description here
