I have an Android Project that builds successfully on Android Studio.
Now I want to build it on Jenkins. But when I'm doing I got the following error:
Gradle build daemon disappeared unexpectedly (it may have been killed or may have crashed)
Exception is:

I read related topics, but it does not help. I tried to build it using gradle daemon, and without it, but the problem still exists.
EDIT Looks like there has been a few changes with the new versions of Gradle.
Since 3.0 you should not disable the daemon on your CI anymore
[We] recommend using [the daemon] for both developers' machines and Continuous Integration servers.
However, if you suspect that Daemon makes your CI builds unstable, you can disable it to use a fresh runtime for each build since the runtime is completely isolated from any previous builds.
PREVIOUS ANSWER
It's recommended to turn off daemon
on any CI server. use this option to disable it
--no-daemon
It seems like it is a memory related issue. Nevertheless, disabling the daemon as suggested by Oleg does seem to help.
Use
org.gradle.daemon=false
in
gradle.properties
either in ~/.gradle folder or the project's folder.
Ref: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/gradle_daemon.html#sec:disabling_the_daemon
After getting this crash I tried several things to get the GradleDaemon to stop running on my CI server. None of which worked.
I found an answer on a gradle.org forum which suggested that the GradleDaemon would always run anyway. The --no-daemon flag would just make it run for this specific build rather than staying on indefinitely.
If you specify JVM arguments that require forking, Gradle will fork a new JVM. Regardless of whether or not you want a daemon process, the class that runs is called GradleDaemon. The --no-daemon switch should cause the forked process to be single use instead of a long running daemon process, but it's still going to run the GradleDaemon class.

I may be reading this wrong and I can't vouch for the validity of the answer, but I think the cause of this error is just a lack of memory for Gradle. As it is always going to run the GradleDaemon.
So I added
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1024m
to my ~/.gradle/gradle.properties
file and it no longer gave me that error.
In our case the issue was caused by the CI server passing environment variables with non-ascii characters (i.e. in the names of commit authors).
Adding file.encoding=utf-8
to Gradle properties fixed the issue immediately.
Gradle build daemon disappeared unexpectedly
in many cases mean gradle itself or even java crashed.
In my case it was java
. Filled bugreport: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1408857
Look at files named like: hs_err_pid%p.log
where %p is PID of process in directory from what you are run gradle
task.
I have tried the --no-daemon
solution but my build continued to fail with the same DaemonDisappearedException
.
I solved this by increasing the RAM of the server I am running Jenkins upon. In AWS EC2 that meant having to increase the EC2 instance type which results to an increase RAM.
gradle -Dorg.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1536m assembleDebug
Or add org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1536m
to gradle.properties file.
No one else may run into this, as it's quite silly, but...
My issue was a strange character being present in my commit message...I had copied a previous commit message from gitlab which contained an emoji and pasted that into the title of a merge request, instead of the normal :bug:
syntax.
akru's answer helped point me in the right direction
