Android studio - Task 'assemble' not found in project ':google-play-services_lib'

android, gradle, maps

Solution

You have a reference to `google-play-services_lib` in your settings.gradle file. Unless you have a module in a directory called "google-play-services_lib" off of your project root, which I assume you don't, then remove this bit from your settings file. The correct way to add a dependency on Play Services is not by adding this to your settings file, but by a `compile` statement in your `dependencies` block of your build.gradle file, as you have already done:

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:5.0.77'

Problem

When I click `Build -> Rebuild Project` I get this error. Everyrithing is fine with the map. I successfully sync build.gradle and clean project without errors. And I can run on my device the map. build.gradle ``` buildscript { repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.12.0' } } apply plugin: 'android' repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:20.0.0' compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:5.0.77' } android { compileSdkVersion 20 buildToolsVersion '20' defaultConfig { minSdkVersion 10 targetSdkVersion 20 } } ``` Manifest.xml ``` <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version" android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" /> ```
