android studio 3.2 Unable to resolve dependency for ':app@debug/compileClasspath': Could not resolve com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1

Question

I am using android studio 3.2 and I installed android studio 2.2 before using this one. When I open a new project I get these errors I mentioned below. I want to mention again that I didn't make any change on layouts or main.activity. I have checked the solutions for old versions but the problem still exist. Here is what I have tried before:

changing apply plugin: 'com.android.application' to apply plugin: 'com.android.library' - Unchecking offline mode. - Adding repositories :

mavenCentral()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
    }

- changing appcompat to older versions (v7:26+ or v7:25) Here are the logs of the errors :

I am truly struggling for 2 days browsing the solutions, and I really feel lost. Thanks for your time, attention and your help in advance.

Answer 1

Try this way

1) Android Studio 3.1.4

2)

COMPILE_SDK_VERSION=26
BUILD_TOOLS_VERSION=27.0.3
TARGET_SDK_VERSION=26

3)

build.gradle{project}

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        google()
        mavenCentral()

    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.4'

    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }

}

4) support library version should be same you can use 26.1.0 for above configuration, for Example com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0

5) and final step is

gradle-wrapper.properties

distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.4-all.zip
