Could not create task ... this and base files have different roots

I've built an app with Android Studio and Flutter and wanted to generate a signed APK. When I go to Tools->Flutter->Open Android module in Android Studio, it starts to build the project.

But after some time I get this Error and I don't know how to change the roots or what to do. It seems like the problem are just two packages (url_launcher and shared preferences)

My Project is on my hard disk F: and the flutter folder is on my hard disk C:

Error Message "Could not create task..."

Is this maybe because my project is on F: and the flutter folder with the packages in C: ? How can I change the flutter folder to F: ?

I fixed mine by moving the project directory to the same drive. My project was stored in E:\ so, I moved it to C:.

My answer is almost the same as rvr93's answer but I did not add anything to the environment variables.

I had your same issue, Gradle couldn't sync the android module, I solved it by deleting the android/ directory from the Flutter project, then recreate it using the command flutter create --platforms android .

Notice the "." at the end of the command it's part of it, it means create the Android project in the current directory.

Create a directory in the same drive as your project and add PUB_CACHE environment variable. Run flutter pub get.

This worked for me.

I faced the same issue in my android project after upgrading gradle.

My project was in my D drive, and I had set the destination folder for the generated apk in my desktop, which is in C drive. I changed the destination folder to a folder in D drive, and the issue got resolved.

As a workaround, you can do the following steps -

  1. run flutter clean
  2. do the Gradle sync without flutter pub get and make necessary changes to native android code.
  3. do pub get and run the app.

I was facing the same issue all I did was to go build.gradle file in android folder and then change the following code as follows

    dependencies {
//CHANGE THE Version in  YOUR BUILD.GRADLE FILE
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.0'
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
    }

This is a temporary solution - track status here
