Android build tools version 23.0.2 not being downloaded.

[alfoksGT]

When I run my script using Android build tools version 23.0.2 I get the following output:

D:\TestApplication>gradlew
Android SDK not found. Downloading...
SDK extracted at 'C:\Users\Developer\.android-sdk'. Writing to local.properties.
Build tools 23.0.2 missing. Downloading...

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.
> failed to find Build Tools revision 23.0.2

If I run the script with debug option I get the following:

Can you shed some light? Thanks!

I'm facing exact same issue - automated build on Bamboo (on Debian) fails with same reason as above. Annoyingly running the same gradle build locally on OS X downloads build tools 23.0.2 just fine.

The compilation api downloads just fine, AFAIK it's just the build tools that fail.

Update: Fixed the issue after seeing #43 - so what had to be done is log on to the build machine, and update Android SDK tools. After this, build-tools-23.0.2 was visible again.

Before installing build tools 23.0.2 you need to upgrade android sdk to the latest version (24.4.1 atm).
Forcing sdk to update is possible with this PR #87

To make sure if this is your case you can quickly check by appliyng fork with this PR included like this:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.github.plastiv:sdk-manager-plugin:b04aea1cddf87e78db9a4372794d678f9e568c48'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'android-sdk-manager'

sdkManager {
    minSdkToolsVersion '24.4.1'
}

And run assemble.

@mikko-l It worked thanks, but it is of no use to me. I'm using Jenkins to automatically build the project. Calling the sdk update command requires user intervention.

@plastiv no luck!

I ended up with the following script (on linux) to update the tools and automatically accept license

(while :
do
  echo 'y'
  sleep 10
done) | ~/.android-sdk/tools/android update sdk -u -a -t "build-tools-23.0.2"

which works. Then I noticed that the plugin started working now, so no need for the script anymore.

I think it works now because instead of fetching URL

https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository-10.xml

the script fetches the following URL, which includes the build tools.

https://dl.google.com/android/repository/repository-11.xml

I'm not sure if it's helpful but I too saw this issue with d0c113b on five Jenkin Ubuntu server instances. I had to delete the Jenkins user ~/.android directories. Seems to be working great now.

[alfoksGT]

I've found the cause after having to wipe Android Sdk and download it again. For some reason when the plugin downloads the Android Sdk, it does not download the latest "SDK Tools" (which at the time of writing are 24.4.1. That results in using the following repository to download the build tools

https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository-10.xml

But the repository is older and build tools 23.0.2 are not contained in it. If "SDK Tools" are updated manually (by running

android update sdk -u -a -t tool

, for example) then the latest repository is used (https://dl.google.com/android/repository/repository-11.xml), in which the lastest build tools are contained. So the real problem is that the plugin does not download the latest "SDK tools" at first time.

Even if @alfoksGT provides a workaround, this issue is still open.

Having to run android update defeats the point of this plugin.

PR #87 mentioned by @plastiv worked for me, although needed to run twice: The first time updates the SDK tools, then on the second run it is able to find and update buildtools.
