When migrating to Gradle Plugin 3.0, AAPT2 is enabled by default. When I try to build the project I get this error. I know that I can disable aapt2 in gradle.properties, but that is a temp solution. Has anyone encountered this issue?

This is an AS bug. It happens when you change your build directory from build.gradle. I have opened an issue, please star https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/68936311
