  1. Please ensure you have TADP set up, along with your Android SDK in project settings and your environment variables. Restart your computer.

  2. Make sure there is nothing unusual (additional spaces for example about your Android package name or TADP setup.

  3. Make sure keystore is set up correctly, if you’re packaging for distribution and receiving this error. Here is some additional keystore instruction.

  4. Double check for proguard errors.

  5. Last resort, delete current build of TADP and upgrade to most recent. Make sure to have SDK 19 and NDK checked when installing.

Good luck.

You need to install the lower version of gradle which is present in android studio 3.5.3
and use the android studio 3.5.3 Jre folder for jdk location in unreal engine also change the environment variables for jdk to jre in java_home variable.
Good luck
