Android Studio : Could not create plugin of type 'AppPlugin'
android, android-gradle-plugin, android-studio, gradle, gradlew
Solution
Are you really using Gradle 1.4? Only Gradle 1.10, 1.11 and 1.12 are supported at the moment. Either download a new Gradle version (as far as I know 2.0 is not supported, yet) or change the Gradle wrapper to one of the mentioned versions.
Problem
I know that there are a lot of similar questions, but no one answer works for me. ``` Android Studio 0.8.0 dependencies { classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.12.+' (the minimum supported version - from tip) } Gradle 1.4 ------------------------------------------------------------ Groovy: 1.8.6 Ant: Apache Ant(TM) version 1.9.3 compiled on April 8 2014 Ivy: non official version JVM: 1.7.0_55 (Oracle Corporation 24.51-b03) OS: Linux 3.13.0-29-generic i386 What went wrong: A problem occurred evaluating project > Could not create plugin of type 'AppPlugin'.
