build.gradle error: Could not create tastk ':generateLockfiles'. in Flutter project but App is running normal

I have an error in my build.gradle file (android/build.gradle) in my Flutter project. The App is running completely normal but this error is still not looking good to me. Does anyone ever had this problem/error?

Here is my complete build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    ext.kotlin_version = '1.6.10'
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.2'
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.13'
    }
}

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

rootProject.buildDir = '../build'
subprojects {
    project.buildDir = "${rootProject.buildDir}/${project.name}"
    project.evaluationDependsOn(':app')
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

flutter doctor -v Output:

EDIT 1: Since this happened to me over a year ago now, I don't remember exactly what solved the error. But there was definitely an incompatible version with conflicted with another version. General Advice: You should take a look at your Kolin Version in android/build.gradle under ext.kotlin_version = 'x.x.x'. Take a look at the to find the Kotlin Website newest available Kolin Version.

Solution

  • Same problem here, but in Linux and Visual Studio code.

    With ./gradlew in android directory, the build failed due wrong Java version. Was Java 1.8, but must be at least 11. After update my java version, ./gradlew built successfully.

    After restart visual studio code, the error was gone.
