Could not find any version that matches com.google.android.gms:strict-version-matcher-plugin:[15.0.0, 16.0.0)

Question

The project was working fine until two days ago when error occured abruptly. I am not sure how to solve it as I have done everything I can including reinstalling android studio and gradle.

Could not resolve all files for configuration ':app:debugCompileClasspath'. Could not find any version that matches com.google.android.gms:strict-version->matcher-plugin:[15.0.0, 16.0.0). Versions that do not match: 1.1.0 1.0.3 1.0.2 1.0.1 1.0.0 Required by: project :app > com.google.gms:google-services:4.2.0

that strict-version-matcher-plugin error message is a bogus error message.

there probably is no Google Services plugin in version 4.2.0 yet.

the actual problem is - that it has lost nothing in the Java dependencies, because those buildscript dependencies are Gradle plugins. therefore, replace:

compile "com.google.gms:google-services:+"

with:

api "com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:16.0.0"
api "com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:16.0.1"

and add it as the bottom line, instead:

apply plugin: "com.google.gms.google-services"

add repository google() in the root-project build.gradle:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        jcenter()
    }
}

you could also update com.android.tools.build:gradle from version 3.0.1 to 3.2.1. there are some more version number to update, because it should target API 28 with build-tools 28.0.3. also think that with updated build-tools, gradleVersion = "4.6.0" would be required to build.

OP should also replace the rest of the `compile`s with `implementation` or `api`. – TheWanderer Oct 31 '18 at 00:13
Thanks for your response @Martin Zeitler. When I update `com.android.tools.build:gradle` from `3.0.1` to `3.2.1` I get this error: [link](> Could not get resource 'https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/android/tools/build/gradle/3.2.1/gradle-3.2.1.pom'.). I have also tried to access the link directly in the browser but it's inaccessible. I try(also did it several times before) to change the app\build.gradle dependencies but it always goes back to the original format after the build as I have shared above. – Paul Kitatta Oct 31 '18 at 12:24
@PaulKitatta you need to add repository `google()`, also for the build-script. – Martin Zeitler Oct 31 '18 at 12:31
OK I did everything but now am getting this error: A problem occurred evaluating project ':CordovaLib'. > Failed to apply plugin [id 'com.android.library'] > Minimum supported Gradle version is 4.6. Current version is 4.1. If using the gradle wrapper, try editing the distributionUrl in C:\Users\Paul\frontend\whatsapp\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper. properties to gradle-4.6-all.zip My gradle versing is 4.10.2 so I really don't understand this. – Paul Kitatta Oct 31 '18 at 14:35
Adding a `repositories{google()}` section resolved my `Cannot resolve external dependency com.google.android.gms:strict-version-matcher-plugin:1.2.1 because no repositories are defined.` error, thank you. – velkoon Sep 23 '21 at 22:26

I had this issue and it was due to cordova-plugin-fcm. What worked for me was to open platforms/android/cordova-plugin-fcm/reporting-FCMPlugin.gradle and change this line classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:+' to classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.1.0'

I had same problem and solve it by adding:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven { url "https://maven.google.com" }
        jcenter()
        mavenLocal()
   }
}

in build.gradle in the root folder of project.

This issue suddenly appeared for us a few days ago too. If we remove cordova-plugin-firebase our builds are successful.

The only thing that worked for us was to update the cordova-plugin-firebase version in config.xml to

<plugin name="cordova-plugin-firebase" spec="2.0.5" />

We use IonicPro for builds and can now successfully build both android and ios.

On our local PCs, we had to remove and re-create the /platforms/android folder.

Thanks for response. So doesn't you app need the plugin? because mine needs firebase for push notifications and stuff. – Paul Kitatta Oct 31 '18 at 13:03
Yes! We've been working on a solution. Answer updated. – Matthew Nov 02 '18 at 14:23
It seems your update missed what you actually updated to. 'The only thing that worked for us was to update the cordova-plugin-firebase version in config.xml to ' ...but no info on what you updated to .. ? TIA! – Mark Terrill Mar 07 '19 at 02:33
Code now displays in answer. Had to format that line as code. – Matthew Mar 08 '19 at 19:15
not worked in my case. can you please add some more details related to that @Aydus-Matthew – Pradip Vadher Aug 05 '19 at 11:20

I updated all dependencies in my package.json and it worked. I have a feeling it could have been something connected to firebase as @Aydus-Matthew suggested here. @Aydus-Matthew could be right for those of you who read come here with the same problem. My advice would be to try his simple solution before mind. But since mine worked and I didn't try @Aydus-Matthew's, I will put the tick here.

Could not find any version that matches com.google.android.gms:strict-version-matcher-plugin:[15.0.0, 16.0.0)
