maven - Gradle project sync failed after Android-Studio (3.1) update

Question

After an update I made on 27-03-2018, my gradle sync is failing.I am getting the error

Could not find org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:1.1.3-2.

I am posting my gradle files below. I have tried cleaning and rebuilding the project, but it is still not working.

Project level gradle

    // Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
        maven {
            url 'https://maven.google.com/'
        }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.0'
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.0.0'
        classpath 'com.loopj.android:android-async-http:1.4.9'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}

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

I tried all that I know, but nothing is working for now. Android Studio and Gradle are updated to the latest version. The app used to work before the update. I followed the instructions in developer.android.com about gradle migration, but nothing is mentioned there that might help me with the issue.

Answer 1

i too came up with the same issue. seems like android studio seeking to update the kotlin plugin as well.

go to Tools > Kotlin > Configure Kotlin Plugin Update and update the plugin. then restart studio, and it will sync the gradle on restart.
