Gradle not finding updated NDK path & project directory

Question

I moved my Android SDK (and NDK) when my hard drive failed.

In my working project, I updated local.properties to reflect these changes in the variables ndk.dir and sdk.dir, yet when I run ./gradlew clean --info on the command line from within my project directory, gradle gives me a failure at the following command:

<old_ndk_path>/ndk-build NDK_PROJECT_PATH=null APP_BUILD_SCRIPT=<oldprojdir>/app/src/main/jni/Android.mk APP_ABI=armeabi NDK_ALL_ABIS=armeabi NDK_DEBUG=1 APP_PLATFORM=android-23 NDK_OUT=<oldprojdir>/app/build/intermediates/ndkBuild/debug/obj NDK_LIBS_OUT=<oldprojdir>/app/build/intermediates/ndkBuild/debug/lib clean

It's no wonder that the task fails, since no executable exists at that path now, but how can I get gradle to make use of the new NDK path? And how can I make it use the new project directory?

Answer 1

Delete the <projdir>/.gradle directory and try again.
