Gradle Build Error: Gradle version 2.10 is required. Current version is 4.0.1.

I can't build for android with gradle it says that I'm using the wrong version, where do I change it so it uses the right version?

Or is it something else?

 

Hi,

I've also come into this issue when updating to Unity 2017.3.0f3. I do use a custom template gradle file (which works fine in 2017.2), my template does specify gradle:2.1.2 but doesn't seem to be respected, I've attached my full mainTemplate.gradle file.

I do also set my GRADLE_HOME environment variable to a directory with gradle-4.3.1 which may be causing issue, but I use this elsewhere with Android Studio so don't want to change it.

Is there a place in unity to set the gradle version? I'm not totally sure where it gets it from to start with, but I presume the environment variable.

Thanks,
Dominic

Here's my full error:

@DomRoberts I think you'll need to change your gradle version in your custom template file.
If you find the template gradle for your Unity version (Applications/Unity/PlaybackEngines/AndroidPlayer/Tools/GradleTemplates/mainTemplate.gradle on OSX for example), you can see the gradle version being used.
In Unity 2017.3.0f3 it's gradle:2.3.0, so just update your custom file with that.
I'm not sure why it says the current version is 4.0.1 because the template seems to say otherwise. Either way, this worked for me.

 

Hallo.
Thank you about this information. It helps me do repair gradle buid in unity 2017.3.1p1
how can I identify current gradle version in unity?

 

It should be the one mentioned in the mainTemplate.gradle file as far as I know. Not sure where that path is on windows, but you can find it on OSX with the path I mentioned above.

 

Thanks @kiwipxl thats fixed it.

 

That saved my ass too, i changed to 4.0.1 according to the warning n didnt work. How a normal dev would know what gradle version 2017 uses!!!! (We just upgraded to 2017 so 2.0.1 was totally fine before in 5.6)

 

great! thx, it saved me!

 

Thanks for all the great info! Helped me immensely!

Since Gradle binary ships with Unity, is there any plan to make this modular and able to change it through settings or something? So we don't have to update a Unity version just for gradle versions

 

Thanks Yury for your answer.
In the company we are providing different packages and different gradles version in Unity force us to create several mainTemplate. Perhaps with the possibility of choosing gradle version would be nice. It's not a big trouble.

 

I am getting this error

My unity version is 2018.2.17f (the latest one) and I used 3.0.1 like you said but still was getting gradle errors... then I tried 3.1.0 it took more time then other build but this time I am facing this...
Please help

 

Is there any documentation page that contains this information? If not, it'd be nice to have this is the Unity docs.

Guys, sorry it is not 100% related, but I think you might know the answer.

Where can I set the value of '**BUILDTOOLS**'?

I mean where are they coming from if it is not overridden by a value in mainTemplate.gradle or libTemplate.gradle?

When I try to Build to android I get an error, because Build Tools 29.0.0 is not present, but I can't download it from anywhere: I have the latest Android Studio version, but 29.0.0 is not available to download, only 29.0.0-rc1 and 29.0.0-rc2.

I'd like to force the environment to use 29.0.0-rc2 instead 29.0.0.

When I checked the generated(?) build.gradle files I have seen 27.0.0 and 29.0.0 versions and the problem is only with the latter.

 

Ah, that is weird! Could you please write it in the docs in the meantime? It would save a lot of time.

(At the end of the day I managed to get it work by altering build.gradle libTemplate and forcing it to '29.0.0 rc2')

----

1.However, may I ask how the **BUILDTOOLS** variable gets populated (in libTemplate and mainTemplate)?

2. Where does the value come from if its just a plain simple automatic build, and why is that sometimes it has different values in the same build (regarding to different build.gradle files). Is that part of the known issue?

 

Hi @Yury-Habets

Thanks for this useful piece of info.
Could you also give us the list of supported Android build tools (API, platform, platform-tools) version per Unity version?

Maybe all this should be added to the documentation also?

 

@Yury-Habets We have our own build.gradle file shipped with our plugins. What version we need to keep so that our plugins will work on the development environment properly?

We would like to know if any macros exist so that these will be replaced during build time. Else, its becoming very difficult as every time Unity upgrades the android plugin version, it's breaking our developer builds or we need to push build for every new unity version which is tedious. Please let us know a possible solution.

Thanks,
VB Team

 

Hi @Yury-Habets
I'm using Unity 2018.1.4f1 and set classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.1' in mainTemplate.grade
But I got the error "could not fine com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.1"
Can you help me a advice?
Thanks

 

@Yury-Habets Can you please answer my earlier query?

We want a confirmation if something like an api exists to detect what versions unity is using so that we can generate our build.gradle files as per the supported versions.

If not, we request your suggestion on how to handle this.

 

I don't mean overriding it but I meant having our own build.gralde files as we want to support the proguard setup automatically (instead of devs copying it to the final proguard.txt files which is totally manual process).

Our structure looks like this
Assets
Plugins
Android
native_plugins_lib
AndroidManifest.xml
build.gradle
proguard.txt
libs
*.jar files
res

We want to have proguard setup automatically so we have configured in our build.gradle so that the devs can avoid manual process of copying the contents of proguard.txt.

As we need to fill in the gradle version in build.gradle file it breaks in some new versions as Unity expects different gradle versions. Moreover, the macros used in maintemplate.gradle (of unity's) won't work in our gradle files. So it would be great to have the versions accessible through code so that we can generate the build.gradle files during export time.


Anyways, we are able to come up with a solution to match unity's gradle version and also enable new jetifier (AndroidX) process automatically.

Thanks a lot @Yury-Habets. Your inputs (earlier related to proguard setup on a diff thread and about post gradle scripts) helped us a lot in automating many of the manual steps

Cheers,
VB Team

 

Yes (Cross Platform Native Plugins). Exactly, we used consumerProguardFiles within our build.gradle file (with the help of yours earlier) and the proguard setup is automatic.

Just only worry is when having our own build.gradle file we need to specify the android plugin version where it needs to be hardcoded and as gradle versions keep changing it became difficult to have a single build.gradle file for multiple unity versions. For this reason only we see it would be great if we can access the version numbers through scripting so that we can generate the build.gradle files at editor time to avoid these errors.

However, from 2019, we started using the same android plugin version as unity's by parsing in post processor to avoid further errors.

Thanks,
VB Team

 

Hi, I got the error also but I use 2017.4.26f1 (LTS) version and never modify any gradle setting.
Because my game project need to support 64bit soon, so I have to move it from 2017.2.1p1 to a nearby version that could build 64bit app.

I suppose that we need to change the Assets\Plugins\Android\mainTemplate.gradle
But this time need to make it looking in local directory instead of remote repository (now it looking at https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/tools/build/gradle/4.6.0/gradle-4.6.0.pom which actually jcenter had only 2.3.0 as a newest version)

 

Somehow I can pass this issue by following method.
1). Ignoring the version in error message (because it misleading) and just correct version as follow the https://forum.unity.com/threads/gra...current-version-is-4-0-1.499520/#post-3500005
2). Put every repository that its need. (After passed the step 1, then we got an error about cannot find some library from repository. Fixing this directly by put the repo that contains those lib )

Below is my mainTemplate.gradle file after fixed.

buildscript {

    repositories {

        jcenter()

        google()                                                    // For Gradle 4.0+

        mavenCentral()

        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }

        // maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }    // For Gradle < 4.0

    }



    dependencies {

        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'    // Correct version follow https://forum.unity.com/threads/gradle-build-error-gradle-version-2-10-is-required-current-version-is-4-0-1.499520/#post-3500005

    }

}



allprojects {

   repositories {

        flatDir {

            dirs 'libs'

        }

        jcenter()

        google()                                                    // For Gradle 4.0+

        mavenCentral()

        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }

        // maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }    // For Gradle < 4.0

   }

}

Now it build successfully. But got another problem about Application.version goes wrong.

Hello ! I could not publish my game on google play for 2 months because google play wants x64 and BUILD APP BUNDLE
and I can not make it
I use uity2019.1.9 and 2017.4.20 and I have Errors in them
I post question but any people could resolve it this is my link:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions...droid-and-build-app-bundle-in-unity-2017-4-17

How can I publish my game with mode gradle and x86 , x64 and BUILD APP BUNDLE ??????help me please
thanks

 

Hi,
you can't publish the game for two months? Think a little better and you may find that you don't need a BUILD APP BUNDLE for Arm7 and ARM64. Is it news and google, and no one else writes about this possibility? And why? Because Google is trying to force developers to use their auto-encrypted application signing. why? because it's big business.
I will advise you, just read this link and you can skip AAB:
https://developer.android.com/google/play/publishing/multiple-apks

Short Description: Try to create one APK ARM7 under one bundle version code for example 0 = ARM7 and build 1 = ARM64. Gradually upload both APKs to Google Play Store. Ignore the yellow warning and publish ;-)

 

For 2017.4, 2018.4, 2019.x releases in the last 1-2 months, and moving forward, is it 100% accurate to refer to the contents of:

.../PlaybackEngines/AndroidPlayer/Tools/GradleTemplates/mainTemplate.gradle
and the X.X.X name of:
.../PlaybackEngines/AndroidPlayer/Tools/gradle/lib/gradle-wrapper-X.X.X.jar


...To determine Android plugin versions and Gradle versions?

(Also, should it generally be safe to update the Android plugin version to a new minor release on an exported project, e.g. 3.4.0 to 3.4.2? Android Studio pesters me about it.)

 

Solved for me, the keystore was stored on a folder that have space and apostrophe like " xxx's xxx ", I changed the name of the folder to something like "xxx" and it solved the problem (same thing for the output folder)
