Crashlytics Fabric : Failed to execute task

Question

I've been having an issue and I don't know how to fix it.

My project use crashlytics, but it's always crash and not sent report. I have a TimeoutException:

Crashlytics initialization :

    Fabric.with(this, new Crashlytics());

    if (!BuildConfig.DEBUG) {
        Log.d("Ez", "Release mode. Crashlytics enable");
        //Fabric.with(this, new Crashlytics());
    } else {
        Log.d("Ez", "Debug mode. Crashlytics disable");
    }

    throw new RuntimeException("This is a crash");
    }
}

I fixed the TimeoutException by adding the following to my build.gradle

ext.enableCrashlytics = true

Or if you have several extensions already:

ext {
    ...
    enableCrashlytics = true
}

You can put it in your application's build.gradle.
