Android Studio 4.X.1 with error trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty

Question

Guys I have started with stater project on Ionic using Capacitor. Trying to build Android build and seems like Android studio is failing with Gradle issues.

I have done below

ionic capacitor run android

My build.gradle file

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.1'
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.3'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

apply from: "variables.gradle"

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

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

Issue:

Executing tasks: [build] in project /somelocation/android

I am able build the project using Ionic commands but I would like to run this on emulator hence trying to open it on Android studio. When I try to import using android studio gradle sync dies with above exception. Any direction on this issue would help.

Answer 1

This is resolved. This error was happening when I am running projects with OpenJDK version openjdk-8u41-b04-linux-x64-14_jan_2020. Once I change it to use OpenJDK 14.0.2 it worked fine.
