I am trying to build react-native android app, as a dependecy I see I have gradle, but it fails to load on build. Error message:

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'MobileApp'.
> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':classpath'.
   > Could not resolve com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.3.1.
     Required by:
         :MobileApp:unspecified
      > Could not resolve com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.3.1.
         > Could not get resource 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/tools/build/gradle/1.3.1/gradle-1.3.1.pom'.
            > Could not GET 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/tools/build/gradle/1.3.1/gradle-1.3.1.pom'.
               > Connection to https://jcenter.bintray.com refused

The issue is clear, I am sitting behind corporate proxy that blocks any HTTPSconnections like these in error. So my questions are: how to force gradle to use HTTP in loading these files? Where these properties should be put(which of gradle files, i.e. gradle.properties)?

P.S. I already have set these in gradle properties file:

systemProp.http.proxyHost= myHost
systemProp.http.proxyPort= myPort
systemProp.http.proxyUser= myUser
systemProp.http.proxyPassword= myPassword

Any links, suggestions or etc. will help a lot.

Go into the gradle/wrapper folder nearby and edit the gradle-wrapper.properties

Then add in a the https to the distribution URL and it should work.

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-1.10-bin.zip
                    ^

Verify the file you are trying to grab is actually on the repo:

https://services.gradle.org/distributions/

Rerun your command to get the gradle wrapper version.

gradle wrapper
gradlew.bat wrapper -gradle-version="1.10"

Hope that helps.
