Could not find manifest-merger.jar

Question

Could not find manifest-merger.jar (com.android.tools.build:manifest-merger:26.1.0). Searched in the following locations: https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/tools/build/manifest-merger/26.1.0/manifest-merger-26.1.0.jar

Already tried the solution : Could not find manifest-merger.jar (com.android.tools.build:manifest-merger:26.1.2) error after gradle 4.4 upgrade but no success.

Answer 1

in my case change:

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

TO:

buildscript {
repositories {
    google() //<--Google first
    jcenter()
    mavenCentral()
  }
}

it works. wtf!

Work for me:

1. close project (!)
2. gradle-wrapper.properties:

 distributionUrl=https\\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.1.1-all.zip 

3. build.gradle:

 dependencies { classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.1' } 

4. google() above:

 repositories { google() jcenter() } 

5. open project and sync
