I'm getting this not very informative error while building my project in Android Studio. I've tried everything from stackoverflow but nothing works.

Execution failed for task ':app:kaptDebugKotlin'.

A failure occurred while executing org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.internal.KaptExecution java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException (no error message)

My app gradle:

plugins {
    id 'com.android.application'
    id 'kotlin-android'
    id 'kotlin-parcelize'
    id 'kotlin-kapt'
    id 'dagger.hilt.android.plugin'




}

        configurations.all {

Change the JDK Version of Android Studio and try it Go to file-> Project Structure-> SDK Location -> Click the Gradle Settings

Your app level module should be something like below:

build.gradle(:app)

buildscript {
repositories {
    google()
    mavenCentral()

}
dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.3' //4.1.3
    classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.6.10"
    classpath 'com.google.dagger:hilt-android-gradle-plugin:2.40.5'


    // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
    // in the individual module build.gradle files
 }
}
 task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

And, another gradle file should be like something like below:

build.gradle(:app)

plugins {
   id 'com.android.application'
   id 'kotlin-android'
   id 'kotlin-parcelize'
   id 'kotlin-kapt'
   id 'dagger.hilt.android.plugin'
}


android {
   compileSdkVersion 30
   buildToolsVersion "30.0.3"

   defaultConfig {

    configurations.all {
        resolutionStrategy { force 'androidx.core:core-ktx:1.6.0' }
    }

    applicationId "com.nenad.favrecipes"
    minSdkVersion 23
    targetSdkVersion 30
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"

    testInstrumentationRunner "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
