Android Studio - Unable to find valid certification path to requested target

Question

I'm getting this error

Gradle 'project_name' project refresh failed: Unable to find valid certification path to requested target

when I create a new project on Android Studio 0.8.14 Mac OSX

Build.gradle file seems to become empty

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.13.2'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    } }

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    } }

And I can't run the project, seems that I have to configure everything manually.

Answer 1

It happened to me, and turned out it was because of Charles Proxy.

Charles Proxy is a HTTP debugging proxy server application

Solution (only if you have Charles Proxy installed):

1. Shut down Charles Proxy;
2. Restart Android Studio.
