Gradle Error:Execution failed for task ':app:p

Question

I am following this link to integrate Google sign-in in my android app.https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/android/start-integrating As given in last step on the above given page we have to include dependency

 compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:8.3.0' 

in app-level build.gradle file but doing so and building project an error comes saying

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugGoogleServices'.
> Please fix the version conflict.

build.gradle(Module:app)

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'


android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.2"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.brainbreaker.socialbuttons"
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:8.3.0'
}

In the build.gradle file the compile dependency line compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:8.3.0' shows error

All com.google.android.gms libraries must use the exact same version specification (mixing versions can lead to runtime crashes). Found versions 8.3.0, 8.1.0. Examples include com.google.android.gms:play-services-base:8.3.0 and com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:8.1.0 There are some combinations of libraries, or tools and libraries, that are incompatible, or can lead to bugs. One such incompatibility is compiling with a version of the Android support libraries that is not the latest version (or in particular, a version lower than your targetSdkVersion.)

Here are the messages of gradle build.

I am not able to see any way out for this version conflict. Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

same issue i have.

i tired all possible solutions that i found. but non were worked.

always got this error

Cannot add task ':processDebugGoogleServices' as a task with that name already exists

Now, i solved it.

1) first i checked my config.xml

2) and removed unnecessary plugin. (I used firebase fcm plugin for pushnotification, but there was two unnecessary plugin phonegap-plugin-push and cordova-plugin-customurlscheme. I removed both these plugins)

3) then removed platform.

4) then add platform

5) then build it.

6) now it build successfully.

Answer 2

NEVER DELETE apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' from the gradle. Sometimes you are using com.google.gms:google-services:3.1.0 , without apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' your gradle build successfully. BUT IT IS COMPLETELY WRONG !!!! This error comes due to google-service.json file is not at the correct location. Go to your PROJECT TAB at left side above. If you display it as ANDROID make it PROJECT then check your google-service.json file is at this location. EXPAND app then see google-service.json file below the build.gradle. IF NOT PLACE IT THERE BY RIGHT CLICK ON THE app .

Answer 3

This error comes up when there is change in your config.xml file resulting in mismatching of the data present in google-services.json file. I got it fixed this just by updating changes to my google-services.json file and building the app again ...it worked well.

Answer 4

If you´re building a new app, put the jsonfile in the right place and make sure it's the jsonfile for that app. Before I realized this, when I clicked the jsonfile, I didn't get the information that wanted.

Go to firebase configurations, download the correct version of google-services.json, and replace the version that didn't work for you. When using the wrong version, you might see the wrong Projectid, storagebucket etc.

Answer 5

Had the same problem i added compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-measurement:8.4.0' and deleted apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' I was using classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:2.0.0-alpha6' in the build project.
