I had the same issue  can t say I know what caused it  but I just closed Android Studio  renamed the c  users MY USERNAME  gradle directory to old- gradle and then re-launched Android Studio   Android studio then re-created the directory and automatically downloaded the gradle zip file and set it all up   Seems to all be fine but to be honest I don t know what this directory is nor what the root cause of the problem was either  so proceed with caution and keep the old  gradle folder around for a bit until you re happy all is working fine

I had this issue as well and jaywhy13 answer was good but not enough   I had to change a setting  Settings -  Gradle -  MyProject  There you need to check the  auto import  and select  use customizable gradle wrapper   After that it should refresh gradle and you can build again  If not try a reboot of Android Studio

I updated to 0 3 0 and had the same issue  I had to end up changing my Gradle version to classpath  com android tools build gradle 0 6 1   and in build gradle and also changing the distributionUrl to distributionUrl http    services gradle org distributions gradle-1 8-bin zip in the gradle-wrapper properties file  Then I did a local import of the Gradle file  That worked for me

As per answer by WarrenFaith  go to   Settings - gt  Gradle - gt  Project-level settings   Change to Use customizable gradle wrapper   Click OK and watch it build  If you still get an error at that stage  go back to    Settings - gt  Gradle - gt  Project-level settings    Change it back to Use default gradle wrapper  recommended   Click OK  That fixed it for me

To correct this mistake very easily  If you read logs  The problem occurs because of the sudden shutdown of the IDEA  And the log files do not correctly write data  Just delete the file on the path   C  Users  UserName   Gradle demon  gradleVersion  registry bin lock

This happened to me after a java update  few things to check if you are sure your path has been set before    if the path doesn t match the latest java install folder  change it  if your in eclipse check the eclipse ini too to make sure your using your systems default vm  ie no VM tag    go to the java directory  there should be a  jdk  and a  jre  in the path  for example   C  Program Files  x86  Java jdk1 8 0 72 jre   if not you probably installed the JRE only not the JDK that  finally if the lib folder of the jdk  not jre  doesnt contain tools jar then you have a problem with the install
