implement kotlin module with java application produce java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of resource classes

Question

I am currently trying to migrate project written in single module to feature-module-clean-architecture. Here I've written multiple modules in kotlin which have been working for another project as well which works fine in that project. But when I come to implement this module in the project I am getting this annoying error:

this got removed after adding static string instead of getting from resource

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: L........../R$string;

still it have problem

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: L........../R$layout;

please find the complete trace below:

Answer 1

This is a big and really misleading error log of android. The problem was with the library version on Realm used in main gradle file of project. It got solved after just updating the library version.
