My android application using Kotlin is throwing this exception when I try to Run 'app' in the emulator o in my cellphone. When I build my project it runs well, with no errors.

I am using:

  • SDK 28 (Android 9.0 (Pie))
  • Gradle 5.1.1
  • Gradle Plugin 3.5.0-alpha03
  • Kotlin 1.3.10
  • Java 1.8.0_151

Click Build -> Clean Project

Then Build -> Make Project

Tested on gradle 3.5.0-alpha3, -alpha5 and 3.4.0 (project gradle)

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.0-alpha03'
