Android Studio 3.0 Beta 1: Failed to resolve: com.android.support:multidex:1.0.2


After migrating from Android Studio 3.0 (Canary 5) to Android Studio 3.0 (Beta 1), and moving to latest gradle , i.e. 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0-beta1'

When I try to gradle sync, it error stating below.

Failed to resolve: com.android.support:multidex:1.0.2 
Failed to resolve: com.android.support:multidex-instrumentation:1.0.2 

I check on Android Studio 3.0 Canary 9 - Failed to resolve packages, it doesn't solve my problem, as I already have this

    maven {
        url 'https://maven.google.com'
    }

I'm surprise it is even asking for multidex 1.0.2, as I only have in my build.gradle

compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'

I check using ./gradlew app:dependencies | grep multidex, it shows the failures as below (across various flavors etc)

+--- com.android.support:multidex-instrumentation:1.0.2 FAILED
+--- com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1
+--- com.android.support:multidex:1.0.2 FAILED
+--- com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1 -> 1.0.2 FAILED

Where did the dependencies of multidex:1.0.2 and multidex-instrumentation:1.0.2 comes from? How could I solve this problem?


Solution

  • Apparently my issue is I should post this:

    maven {
        url 'https://maven.google.com'
    }
    

    in allprojects and not in buildscript (the subtle different has blinded me where the issue is), which then looks like this:

    allprojects {
        repositories {
            maven {
                url 'https://maven.google.com'
            }
        }
    }
    

    Thanks to M D for the pointers!
