I am also facing same issue.

@nicholaslee119 can you please look into this one. I think Jcenter dependency is causing the issue and it has been shut down since early morning today.

I am also facing the same issue. Can anyone please help ?

I ran into this problem a few weeks ago which sort of resovled itself. It started again this morning.

I believe this is because JCenter is planned to shut down.

If your app (or a dependancy) is hosted in JCenter, you're going to start running into issues.

UPDATE: JFrog has decided to keep JCenter as a read-only repository indefinitely. New package and versions are no longer accepted on JCenter. All Bintray services have been shutdown.

In my case, I started removing dependencies (many were added to the project that weren't even used 🙄) to identify which dependency I needed to migrate off of. I've been lucky; only 3 deps to get rid of and none of them were used and my builds are succeeding.

TLDR; Read the articles on JCenter shutting down and plan to migrate to maven hosted dependancies.

This is a temporary workaround:
