Hi, this problem is becoming very annoying, for a week now I have been trying to solve it but had no success, I have tried every possible solution to solve it and got nothing :frowning:

So, every time I try to package my project I get this error:

BUILD FAILED in 23s
UATHelper: Packaging (Android (Multi:ASTC,PVRTC,DXT,ATC,ETC2,ETC1)): ERROR: C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe failed with args /c "C:\Users\Abdulrahman\Documents\Unreal Projects\PackTry2\Intermediate/Android/APK\gradle\rungradle.bat" :app:assembleDebug

UATHelper: Packaging (Android (Multi:ASTC,PVRTC,DXT,ATC,ETC2,ETC1)): BUILD FAILED

My Project settings:

Solutions I have tried with no success:
1- Enable Gradle instead of Ant
2- Update: Android Support Repository
3- Download all tools from android.bat

Please help me I am struggling so much with this problem now…

Just install different version of java development kit and change path in Android SDK tab to that new version in project settings.

That did the job for me.

in [project]\Intermediate\Android\arm64\gradle\ i ran ./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version=8.3 (the gradle version should match with compatible java version). this is a temporary fix tho , any new projects might have same bug
