CMake communicate to server error occurred

Question

I'm building a project which needs some NDK code, but here's the problem makes me crazy for last few days.

It's just an empty project using NDK which created by following AS guide, and changed nothing.

Environment:

Android Studio 3.2.1
Build #AI-181.5540.7.32.5056338, built on October 9, 2018
JRE: 1.8.0_152-release-1136-b06 amd64
JVM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o
Windows 10 10.0
CMake Version 3.10.2.4988404 (Downloaded by SDK Manager)

Following is the hint:

Support for CMake 3.7 and higher is a preview feature. To report a bug, see https://developer.android.com/studio/report-bugs.html
The CompileOptions.bootClasspath property has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 5.0. Please use the CompileOptions.bootstrapClasspath property instead.

I've already checked all the posts in this site and many other sites. Tried to Reinstall AS/SDK/NDK/gradle/tools... None of those answers work.

Did you install CMake from SDK manager? Goto the SDK Manager --> Android SDK --> SDK Tools --> CMake. — sfarbac, Jan 09 '19 at 13:17
Finally, I copied a 3.6.xx folder from my colleague, then deleted 3.10.xx folder. God... it work — Oliver.Wong, Jan 10 '19 at 05:39

I did something similar as Oliver.Wong, and it worked for me. I uninstalled Cmake directly from AndroidStudio (my version was 3.10.xx). And then I installed Cmake 3.6xx from the command line ("yourSdkPath"/android-sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager/ "cmake;3.6.4111459")

Try below

externalNativeBuild { 
    cmake { 
        ...
        version "3.10.2"
        ...
    } 
}

Or just remove the newer version of CMake 3.10.2, and fallback to 3.6.

Please see if this one could help. For this case, please try use Studio/gradle plugin version 3.3.1+.
