Class org.gradle.tooling.internal.gradle.DefaultBuildIdentifier does not implement the requested interface

Question

I have reinstalled Android Studio on Ubuntu 20.04. I've received error: "Minimum supported Gradle version is 4.10.1. Current version is 4.4.1."

But when I try to update gradle to any newer version, I receive output:

Starting Gradle Daemon...

Gradle Daemon started in 531 ms

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong:

Failed to notify build listener.

Class org.gradle.tooling.internal.gradle.DefaultBuildIdentifier does not implement the requested interface org.gradle.tooling.model.BuildIdentifier

I've tryed Android Gradle Plugin Version 4.0.1 and Gradle Version 6.6.1 and several older versions with the same result.

Answer 1

I have removed and reinstalled android studio once more. Got error: "Could not create parent directory for lock file <*my gradle wrapper location>". Checked access rights for gradle wrapper location and noticed, that some directories were owned by root. I changed owner for these directories. It helped: the next build was successfull.
