I am using genymotion as emulator, even though I dont think that matters in this issue. Many solution to this problem is setting JAVA_HOME path. But I have set it, echo $JAVA_HOME > /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64 . I suspect this is a problem with gradle 2.1 and java-9 from this . I have been stuck on this for some time now, any help would be appreciated.

Stupid me thought it would be a great idea to try out JDK-9 when the great Oracle warned me not to . Removed it and installed JDK-8 , problem solved. Oracle did see my future.
