Opening ported android project in Android Studio gives error

I am trying to open a ported Android application in Android studio and I keep getting the following error when I try to sync gradle: Error:(1, 0) Plugin with id 'android' not found.. I have seen a lot of posts regarding this issue, but none of the solutions has helped for me. This is my gradle file:

apply plugin: 'android'

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.+'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.+'
    compile 'com.getbase:floatingactionbutton:1.3.0'
}

android {
compileSdkVersion 21
buildToolsVersion "21.1.2"

packagingOptions {
    exclude 'META-INF/DEPENDENCIES'
    exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE'
    exclude 'META-INF/LICENSE.txt'
    exclude 'META-INF/license.txt'
    exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE'
    exclude 'META-INF/NOTICE.txt'
    exclude 'META-INF/notice.txt'
    exclude 'META-INF/ASL2.0'
}

compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_7
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_7
}

sourceSets {
    main {
        manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
        java.srcDirs = ['src']
        resources.srcDirs = ['src']
        aidl.srcDirs = ['src']
        renderscript.srcDirs = ['src']
        res.srcDirs = ['res']
        assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
    }

    // Move the tests to tests/java, tests/res, etc...
    instrumentTest.setRoot('tests')

    // Move the build types to build-types/<type>
    // For instance, build-types/debug/java, build-types/debug/AndroidManifest.xml, ...
    // This moves them out of them default location under src/<type>/... which would
    // conflict with src/ being used by the main source set.
    // Adding new build types or product flavors should be accompanied
    // by a similar customization.
    debug.setRoot('build-types/debug')
    release.setRoot('build-types/release')
}
}

Please let me know if I am doing anything wrong or if you require additional information. Can you point me in the right direction? Thank you in advance.

EDIT

I have implemented the answer in that question and got the following results. Please reconsider

Error:Gradle version 1.10 is required. Current version is 2.2.1. If using the gradle wrapper, try editing the distributionUrl in C:\Users\Gerhardt\git\captis\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties to gradle-1.10-all.zip.

Please fix the project's Gradle settings.
<a href="openGradleSettings">Gradle settings</a>

So I pointed to version 2.2.1 instead and got this:

Error:Could not find com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.1.
Searched in the following locations:
    file:/C:/Program Files/Android/Android Studio/gradle/m2repository/com/android/tools/build/gradle/2.2.1/gradle-2.2.1.pom
    file:/C:/Program Files/Android/Android Studio/gradle/m2repository/com/android/tools/build/gradle/2.2.1/gradle-2.2.1.jar
    https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/android/tools/build/gradle/2.2.1/gradle-2.2.1.pom
    https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/android/tools/build/gradle/2.2.1/gradle-2.2.1.jar
Required by:
    :captis:unspecified

I am at a loss of what to do. Please advise me?

This is a duplicate of Error:(1, 0) Plugin with id 'android' not found, but blind copy-paste of its code is causing some problems.

That question advises you to put a buildscript block with repositories in your build script, but since the answer references a previous version of Android Studio, it has an older version of the Android Gradle plugin, and unfortunately Android Studio is giving you an unhelpful and incorrect error message when that happens. Do this, noting the newer version in the classpath statement. Actually, I assume you're running Studio 1.0 or later; if you're still running a beta version, you may need to hunt around to find the right version number:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.0.0'
    }
}
