I am creating a simple android application… I ran into some kind of trouble when I updated gradle when I launched Android Studio and it prompted me too.
Upon the update completing I receive the following error:
Error:Execution failed for task ‘:app:compileDebugJavaWithJavac’.
Failed to create MD5 hash for file ‘/Users/damenTomassi/AndroidStudioProjects/AstraeaDemo/app/src/main/res/libs/gson-2.3.1.jar’.
I used to have the GSON library in my project, however I no longer needed it so I removed it…
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Step 1:
