Some ways of troubleshooting the Gradle daemon    If you have a problem with your build  try temporarily disabling the daemon  you can pass the command line switch --no-daemon   Occasionally  you may want to stop the daemons either via the --stop command line option or in a more forceful way  There is a daemon log file  which by default is located in the Gradle user home directory  You may want to start the daemon in --foreground mode to observe how the build is executed

Check your project folder  You may have there a file called gradle properties and in there  check to see if you don t have this line   org gradle jvmargs -Xmx2048m -XX  HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Dfile encoding UTF-8  In my case  I just deleted the file  but check the contents to see if you don t actually want to keep some of the settings
