Migrating to GCM breaks the build process

Question

I'm trying to migrate my app and adding classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:1.3.0-beta1' breaks the build:

This is my top level gradle.build:

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

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.1.0'
        classpath 'com.github.hamsterksu:android-appversion-gradle-plugin:1.2.+'
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:1.3.0-beta1'
    }
}

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

Doing that fails the build with the following message:

What went wrong: A problem was found with the configuration of task ':app:zipalignAppDebug'.

File '/path../outputs/apk/app-app-debug-unaligned.apk' specified for property 'inputFile' does not exist.

Answer 1

i have found these problem too, and i found its because i have using 22 buildtoolsversion

change your buildToolsVersion to version 23, and it will work again

open app/build.gradle

android {
  compileSdkVersion 22
  buildToolsVersion "23.0.0 rc3"

  defaultConfig {
    applicationId "packagename.id"
    minSdkVersion 15
    targetSdkVersion 22
    versionCode appVersionCode
    versionName appVersionName
  }
  buildTypes {
    release {
      minifyEnabled false
      proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
  }
  packagingOptions {
    exclude 'META-INF/services/javax.annotation.processing.Processor'
  }
}
