Problems trying to generate Kotlin application with Android Studio

-Android Studio 1.5.1, Java 1.7.0 amd64, Ubuntu 15.10

-instaled kotlin-plugin 1.0.0

-created new project with empty activity (API level 15)

-Tools->Kotlin->Configure Kotlin in project

-Default options are selected, All modules, Kotlin plugin version 1.0.0

Generate build.gradle

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.2"

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "kotlin.org.jjvr.kotlinapplication"
    minSdkVersion 15
    targetSdkVersion 23
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
}
buildTypes {
    release {
        minifyEnabled false
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'),    'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
}
sourceSets {
    main.java.srcDirs += 'src/main/kotlin'
}
}

dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1'
compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:$kotlin_version"
}
buildscript {
ext.kotlin_version = '1.0.0'
repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
    classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-    plugin:$kotlin_version"
}
}
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}

-open in editor MainActivity.java and convert to Kotlin: - kotlin Code->Convert Java File to Kotlin File

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
}
}

-while building these errors are listed

Error: Only the Kotlin standard library is allowed to use the 'kotlin' package

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:compileDebugKotlin'.

Compilation error.

Any idea what's going on?

Thanks in advance

As error says :

Only the Kotlin standard library is allowed to use the 'kotlin' package

You can not use 'kotlin' for your package name and your Package (applicationId) is :

kotlin.org.jjvr.kotlinapplication

So you must change it to something else with renaming or creating new applicaton with another package name

I got the same error because i was using "kotlin.kotlindemo" as package name. Just i renamed the package and it is working fine now.
