It happened to me too, I got the same error message.

Now, after trying uninstalling everything and installing them again in the same order I have been doing it in the last couple of weeks, I get these messages:

I just tried lucasmds solution but it didn’t work; it might have worked If I hadn’t tried uninstalling and installing things.

so you still havnt got it working???

Thanks a lot lucasmds that totally did the trick. the meven and Jcenter were inverted in my project. funny how that can break a project. any advice on how or where to look when I have similar problems would be much appreciated.

Hi,
The problem is that solution not work in Ionic Pro

IOS has no problems and builds fine.

I’m having the same problem.
How can we get official support from Ionic PRO?

9

in this proyect your use the plugin phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner? I remove this plugin and build complete.

10

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I don’t use this dependency :expressionless:

11

Any luck guys?
I tried what @lucasmds suggested but the issue persists

After some searching i came across with:

1 - Add google() to the “\platforms\android\CordovaLib\build.gradle” file

repositories {
        google()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
        jcenter()
    }

If doesn’t work, add “google()”: in “\platforms\android\build.gradle”

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
        jcenter()
    }
    // ...
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
        jcenter()
    }
    // ...
    }
}

2- Try to update android-cordova

Remove the platform, then:

cordova platform add android@7.1.1

First I tried modifying only the platforms/android/CordovaLib/build.gradle file, without success.

Then I tried your last solution and still didn’t work, but I read the logs and there was an error with goggle(). I just removed that and the building process now won’t throw any errors!

Thanks!

It’s building right now, don’t do anything. Just try it again.

I think this is a very dirty fix since you have to do it every time you androd platform

You rock!
I spent I don’t know how many hours on this.
Thank you!

Thank you @lucasmds. In my case, I tried first the google() trick but it didn’t work, then I removed/added android platform from Cordova and it’s running normally :smile:
