I was tring to compile my project in Android Studio (using Java) and the following error appeared: 

Could not find org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:1.1.3-2.
Searched in the following locations:
  - https://maven.fabric.io/public/org/jetbrains/kotlin/kotlin-stdlib/1.1.3-2/kotlin-stdlib-1.1.3-2.pom
  - https://maven.fabric.io/public/org/jetbrains/kotlin/kotlin-stdlib/1.1.3-2/kotlin-stdlib-1.1.3-2.jar
  - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/org/jetbrains/kotlin/kotlin-stdlib/1.1.3-2/kotlin-stdlib-1.1.3-2.pom
  - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/org/jetbrains/kotlin/kotlin-stdlib/1.1.3-2/kotlin-stdlib-1.1.3-2.jar

Since I am not using kotlin I do not understand why is it being requested to compile my project.

The rest of questions I've seen about it here are about Kotlin projects or missing SDK but it is not my case.

build.gradle (app):

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

Thank you in advance.

  • Maybe with a Fabric's version downgrading? It's possible its libraries use Kotlin. – Óscar Feb 12 '19 at 08:48
  • Yesterday the app was running without problems in this version, that's why I didn't try to downgrade it – P. Vera Feb 12 '19 at 08:53

    I downgraded the version and the same error still appears, but i edited my question, I found a possible solution. – P. Vera Feb 12 '19 at 08:58

Remove the buildscript block from your app module build.gradle. It overrides whatever the top-level build.gradle provided and it's missing jcenter repo where Kotlin is.

So, I found the solution. I was still doing some research and I found this question: possible solution

People said jcenter() must be included in the project-level build.gradle, and since I already had it, I tried to add it to build.gradle (app).

It worked.

If someone could explain why, it would be awesome.
