I am trying to generate Doka docs of my project. While generating I am getting an error like above. I have searched so many but could not able to get solution to this. I have gone through this link also. Here it is saying it might be a dagger related issue. I have tried these all solution also but not worked for me. I am posting here my all Gradle files for more clarification. if any one faced this issue or know the way to solve Please do comments.

Project Gradle :

 buildscript {
        ext.kotlin_version = '1.3.20'
        ext.dokkaVersion = '0.9.17'
        repositories {
            google()
            jcenter()
        }
        dependencies {
            classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.1'
            classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
            classpath "org.jetbrains.dokka:dokka-android-gradle-plugin:$dokkaVersion"
            classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-allopen:1.3.20"

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

    allprojects {
        repositories {
            google()
            jcenter()
        }
    }

    Can you please add your full error message? – Pravin Divraniya Feb 28 '19 at 07:04

    Add the additional flag to the build.gradle file to enable error type inferring in stubs: kapt { correctErrorTypes = true } – Pravin Divraniya Feb 28 '19 at 07:37

    Check [this link](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/kapt.html). Read **Non Existent Type Correction**. – Pravin Divraniya Feb 28 '19 at 08:22
  • Anything new after adding that kapt line? – Pravin Divraniya Mar 01 '19 at 08:00
  • error: incompatible types: NonExistentClass cannot be converted to Annotation @error.NonExistentClass(). I need help unable to solve this error even after trying every solution. I'm stucked. – Mr U9Q Aug 18 '22 at 22:51
  • Narrow it down to which code is failing, you can delete some code, run it again, if it fails, delete more. Eventually you'll arrive at an annotated code element that fails. It should give you (and us) more clue on what is going wrong. – TWiStErRob Jan 24 '23 at 10:35
  • If you using kapt you don't need to use annotationProcessor, error is generated by dagger-compiler or dagger-android-support but there is not enough info here to help – Karol Kulbaka Aug 16 '23 at 16:44
