The problem I'm experiencing:
I'm getting the following error when my gradle script tries to build:
> Could not resolve junit:junit:4.12.
> Could not get resource 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/junit/junit/4.12/junit-4.12.pom'.
> Could not GET 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/junit/junit/4.12/junit-4.12.pom'.
> Connection to https://jcenter.bintray.com refused
What I need to know:
(1) How to resolve Android Studio's connection issue
OR
(2) Where to put the .pom files manually
What I have done so far:
(1) Access the jcenter website manually in a browser and download the files
(2) Set up Android Studio's proxy settings and verified the connection to jcenter via ping in Terminal
(3) Tried using alternate repositories including: mavenCentral()
and maven { url 'http://repo1.maven.org/maven2' }
