Could not GET 'https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/android/tools/build/gradle/7.0.2/gra-CodePudding

I am new to Android Studio, I am getting this error everytime I try to sync the project with gradle. For instance I am providing reference to three files.

1) Project level build.gradle File

plugins {
    id 'com.android.application'
    id 'kotlin-android'
}

android {
    compileSdk 31

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.myfirstapp"
        minSdk 24
        targetSdk 31
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"

        testInstrumentationRunner "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }

    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }
    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = '1.8'
    }
}

dependencies {

    implementation 'androidx.core:core-ktx:1.7.0'
    implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.3.1'
    implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.4.0'
    implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:2.1.1'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4. '
    androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.ext:junit:1.1.3'
    androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.4.0'
}

2) Gradle Scripts build.gradle file

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
        mavenLocal()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.2"
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.6.0-RC2"

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

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

3) gradle-wrapper.properties

I am on Windows 10 with Android Studio Arctic Fox 2020.0.1 Patch 3

The Complete Error Message Which I get is

Could not GET 'https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/android/tools/build/gradle/7.0.2/gradle-7.0.2.pom'. Received status code 405 from server: Method Not Allowed

CodePudding user response：

well , as it seems alright I can only guess its a connection issue .

Try using this link https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/android/tools/build/gradle/7.0.2/gradle-7.0.2.pom with a browser to make sure you can connect to google .

if you can reach the site then you ll probably need to use proxy/vpn .

and the way to do so is downloading psiphon and navigate to the setting , set local port for 1234 for example.

Then go to Users/%USERNAME%/.gradle and add gradle properties , with the following

systemProp.http.proxyHost=127.0.0.1
systemProp.http.proxyPort=1234

systemProp.https.proxyHost=127.0.0.1
systemProp.https.proxyPort=1234
