I changed my project default location in Android Studio Settings from /Documents/Android Studio projects to /Documents/AndroidProjects. Then I moved an existing project from former to latter in file explorer. Then I opened Android Studio and imported that project. Now it is giving this error while building:
Build file 'C:\Users\Sourav Kannantha B\Documents\AndroidProjects\Skara\app\build.gradle' line: 1A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.> Failed to apply plugin [id 'com.android.internal.application']> Failed to get default debug keystore location.I have checked all the gradle files and nowhere anything related to path was mentioned. So I don't know what's causing this error. Please help me.

Best Answer
You probably need to run this before your build command:
unset ANDROID_SDK_HOMEAs stated here, the actual error is hidden and looks like this (you can get the error to display by using the build --stacktrace argument, for example ./gradlew clean --stacktrace):
Caused by: com.android.prefs.AndroidLocationsException: ANDROID_SDK_HOME is set to the root of your SDK: xxxx/sdkANDROID_SDK_HOME was meant to be the parent path of the preference folder expected by the Android tools.It is now deprecated.To set a custom preference folder location, use ANDROID_USER_HOME.It should NOT be set to the same directory as the root of your SDK.To set a custom SDK location, use ANDROID_HOME.If that works for you, you can make this change permanent by removing the line you have in your bash/zsh profile:
# Deprecated line to revmoe:# export ANDROID_SDK_HOME=$HOME/Library/Android/sdk# You can keep this one:export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Library/Android/sdkI recently ran into exact the same error message. I found your post without any answer and decided to run gradle dependencies --stacktrace. This provided me with extra information about the ANDROID_SDK_HOME environment variable: it's deprecated for the latest Android distribution and was, in my case, the source of the error message. I removed the environment variable and could finally build my application.
I'm not certain how it was caused, but I also moved my sdk location recently, as well as installed Android Studio to a different place (/opt in Linux).
Googling that exact wording, I found it only in one place in Google's source code: com/android/build/gradle/internal/packaging/GradleKeystoreHelper.kt
Following a similar process, I got to this:
public static final String getFolder() throws AndroidLocationException {if (sPrefsLocation == null) {String home = findValidPath(new EnvVar[] { EnvVar.ANDROID_SDK_HOME,EnvVar.USER_HOME,EnvVar.HOME });// if the above failed, we throw an exception.if (home == null) {throw new AndroidLocationException("Unable to get the Android SDK home directory.\n" +"Make sure the environment variable ANDROID_SDK_HOME is set up.");} else {sPrefsLocation = home;if (!sPrefsLocation.endsWith(File.separator)) {sPrefsLocation += File.separator;}sPrefsLocation += FOLDER_DOT_ANDROID + File.separator;}}...}(FOLDER_DOT_ANDROID is simply .android)
My ANDROID_SDK_HOME points to ~/android-sdk, but my conf dir (.android) and the debug.keystore file in it, live at the default location of ~/.android.
So following the logic of what that code was looking for, I simple created a directory with the same name in ~/android-sdk and copied the file into it. So the result was:
~/android-sdk/.android/debug.keystore
This is obviously a hack, but the Google code seems to by checking for the conf folders in the reverse order, so what can ya do?
Before you simply replicate my solution, I suggest you follow the logic of your own case. Check the env variables, and the location of your conf dir.
(Also, if for some reason you do not have a debug.keystore in your conf dir, just open Android Studio and create a hello world / bare project, and it will create one there for you.)
