Android Studio 0.4.3 - Unable to compile official Android Samples

I've got Android Studio 0.4.3 installed on my system and try to import and run the official samples from the Android Developers site:

http://developer.android.com/samples/index.html

Unfortunately when I try to compile I get the following error:

FAILURE: Could not determine which tasks to execute.

  • What went wrong: Task 'assemble' not found in root project 'ActionBarCompat-Basic'.

  • Try: Run gradle tasks to get a list of available tasks.

As you can see I tried to compile the ActionBarCompat-Basic example, but the result is the same for all samples.

I already tried to delete the <component name="FacetManager"> ... </component> from my iml file and deleted the .idea folder like suggested in this thread:

Gradle: FAILURE: Could not determine which tasks to execute

This did not solve the problem. After removal of the files I imported the project to Android Studio and tried to compile. As a consequence the iml file and the .idea folder are generated again and the error message stays the same.

Anyone else got this problem? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Sample projects are using old version of gradle plugin which is no longer supported by Android Studio 0.4.3

Please do the following changes

Go to your module's build.gradle(like ActionBarCompat-BasicSample/build.gradle) file inside the project and replace dependency classpath at beginning by this

dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.7.+'
    }

Change the distrubutionUrl in ActionBarCopat-Basic/gradle/gradle-wrapper.properties file to this

distributionUrl=http\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-1.9-all.zip

If you are using gradle version 1.10 replace 0.7.+ to 0.8.+ and 1.9 to 1.10 in above configurations .

I am assuming you have already removed component FacetManager from ActionBarCopat-Basic.iml file and re-imported the project.

This worked perfectly for me.
