I did not work with my Android Studio up today. when I build my project and I synced it , it said : Caused by: org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed: I did not change anything in the project and the language of the project is Kotin. I use JDK 13 and Android Studio 3.6.1 and the latest Android SDK.

In short

Set the JDK version to Embedded JDK

WHY?

A copy of the latest OpenJDK comes bundled with Android Studio 2.2+. This is the JDK version GOOGLE recommend.

To use the bundled JDK, do the following:

HOW?

Android Studio > Preferences... > Build, Execution, Deployment > Build Tools > Gradle Under Gradle JDK, choose the Embedded JDK option. Click OK.

For windows

select File > Settings... > Build, Execution, Deployment > Build Tools > Gradle Under Gradle JDK, choose the Embedded JDK option.

I'm too late, but it helps someone.

I got the same problem when I installed Android Studio 4.2.1 in Windows 10. I fixed it by selecting the JDK location. Open File > Project Structure. Then select the SDK Location tab (on the left). On the JDK location section, select Embedded JDK: option (the first one).

Look at this picture:

It worked in my case. Also, I'm using the latest Gradle Version (6.7.1) and Android Gradle Plugin Version (4.2.1).

Change your JDK version by following steps in Android Studio:

File-> Project Structure -> SDK location -> Gradle Settings

Then select the configured JDK version.

I also experienced the same, I tried changing the JDK version.

  1. File -> Setting -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Build Tools -> Maven -> Gradle
  2. Gradle JVM -> Download JDK

and I set it as below

I solved it change the version of Gradle on Project Structure options. I imagine it will also work by configuring old versions

Gradle Version Config

I got this error while creating a new project, so I am telling solution for the case, if you are creating a new project and you got this error, then below mentioned solution will definitely work for you.

Condition : Check your project's name if it is having any special characters like ',#,@ etc.

Solution : Just remove any special character from the project's file name and that's it.

I also got this error while creating a new project in a newly installed Android Studio, So i am sharing my solution- If you have installed the very latest version of Android Studio then try installing the older version. In my case i installed version 4.1.2 and was not able to make gradle work. So i uninstalled 4.1.2 version and tried 3.6 version and it worked without any issues.
