The module 'app' is an Android project without build variants

Question

I am getting below error while importing android project.

Error:The module 'app' is an Android project without build variants, and cannot be built. Please fix the module's configuration in the build.gradle file and sync the project again.

Gradle file code.

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
compileSdkVersion 25
buildToolsVersion "25.0.3"

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.djalel.android.bilal"
    minSdkVersion 9
    targetSdkVersion 25
    versionCode 4
    versionName "1.3"
}

buildTypes {
    release {
        minifyEnabled true
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt')
    }
}

aaptOptions {
    cruncherEnabled = false
}
}

dependencies {
implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.3.1'
implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.2'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:25.3.1'
implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:25.3.1'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:12.0.1'
implementation 'com.readystatesoftware.sqliteasset:sqliteassethelper:2.0.1'
implementation 'com.jakewharton.timber:timber:3.1.0'
}
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}

I checked with working gradle file as well but getting same error in this project.

Answer 1

Above gradle file code seems to be perfect. Probably its nothing to do with app/build.gradle (Module:app). Just open other build.gradle (Project:Android) file in Project window and verify your Android Studio version it must be same as yours.

I replaced from:

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
    // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
    // in the individual module build.gradle files
}

to my Android Studio v3.0.1 in my case:

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.1'
    // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
    // in the individual module build.gradle files
}

Press "Try Again" to Sync gradle file. This resolved my problem with a successful build.
