Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 5.0

I've got a gradle FAILURE:

..."Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 5.0."

Case description:

APP/build.gradle

    //(Required) Writing and executing Unit Tests on the JUnit Platform 
testImplementation "org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-api:5.2.0"
testRuntimeOnly "org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-engine:5.2.0"
    // (Optional) If you need "Parameterized Tests"
testImplementation "org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-params:5.2.0"
    // (Optional) If you also have JUnit 4-based tests
testImplementation "junit:junit:4.12"
testRuntimeOnly "org.junit.vintage:junit-vintage-engine:5.2.0"

testImplementation "io.mockk:mockk:1.8.5"

As a result I couldn't build the app and I've got that FAILURE: message.

I got an error related to this that says: Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 9.0

...The error occurred when I was setting up convention plugins in build-logic.

I solved this by adding this line to settings.gradle file: includeBuild("build-logic") here:

pluginManagement {
    includeBuild("build-logic")
    repositories {
        google {
            content {
                includeGroupByRegex("com\\.android.*")
                includeGroupByRegex("com\\.google.*")
                includeGroupByRegex("androidx.*")
            }
        }
        mavenCentral()
        gradlePluginPortal()
    }
}

Note that sometimes when you import the build-logic folder from an existing project, it clears the settings.gradle file contents, so just replace the code and as it was before and add the 'includeBuild("build-logic") line.

Important - This answer only works for REACT-NATIVE

In your terminal, you'll have to run the following command to emit that warning:

react-native run-android -- --warning-mode=all

If you run the command, then you will get the error in your terminal.

After hours of searching on the web I used this command:
react-native run-android warning-mode=all
on vs code. And it turns out that the error have nothing to do with deprecated modules or any gradle error, it was just that my device was full of storage. I hope it will help someone one day.

After none of the above answers worked for me, I managed to solve this issue by upgrading the Gradle plugin to the latest version and using the JDK 11. Hope this helps someone!

Go to gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties change the distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.4.2-bin.zip to the release that is needed (or higher).

Then run again cd android && ./gradlew bundleRelease

For me, the problem was that I ran out of space in my device's internal storage. After deleting a few unnecessary apps, it worked fine.

I Sloved this problem by updating my gradle-wrapper.properties file. You have to change this line distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.3.3-bin.zip to the lates gradle build which can be found at The Gradle Wrapper.

Hope that helps someone out there :)

My project was incompatible with Gradle 8.0 .Here's what worked for me: First I wrote this line of code in the Android Studio terminal:

./gradlew build --warning-mode all

When you do that, you will be shown in the logcat what is found to be deprecated or an issue in your project, for me it was the jcenter() repository that needed to be removed in my settings.gradle file and also I needed to update classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.5.21" to classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.5.30" in my build.gradle project file.

Once I did these things, my project built perfectly and installed on my emulator

Check settings.gradle script and remove jcenter() from that it may be causing the issue as it is deprecated.

You're new settings.gradle file should be

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
        gradlePluginPortal()
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    plugins {
        id 'com.android.application' version '7.1.0-alpha12'
        id 'com.android.library' version '7.1.0-alpha12'
        id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android' version '1.5.21'
    }
}
dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}
rootProject.name = "ComposePlayground"
include ':app'

Take note that ComposePlayground is app name.

In my case adding multiDexEnabled true in Android/app/build.gradle file compiled the files.

I will look into removing this in the future, as in the documentation it says 'Before configuring your app to enable use of 64K or more method references, you should take steps to reduce the total number of references called by your app code, including methods defined by your app code or included libraries.'

defaultConfig {
  applicationId "com.peoplesenergyapp"
  minSdkVersion rootProject.ext.minSdkVersion
  targetSdkVersion rootProject.ext.targetSdkVersion
  versionCode 1
  versionName "1.0"
  multiDexEnabled true // <-add this 
}

I found my disk space is less than 4 GB and can not get the Gradle lib repo then show

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 7.0.
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

just remove tmp and junk files, free up space then try build and resolve problem

The process below worked in my case- First check Gradle Version:

cd android
./gradlew -v

In my case it was 6.5

Go to https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin and you'll get the plugin version for your gradle version. For gradle version 6.5, the plugin version is 4.1.0

Then go to app/build.gradle and change classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:<plugin_version>

The following solution helped me as I was also getting the same warning. In your project level gradle file, try to change the gradle version in classpath

classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.0" to
classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.1"

On a SpringBoot project using IntelliJ and Gradle, I got the warning "Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 5.0" when running my integration test. What solved the problem was: - Going to: File > Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment - Selecting for "Build and run using": Intellij IDEA (instead of "Gradle") - Same for "Run tests using" That did not explain why Gradle is displaying the warning, but that let me perform the test and progress in my work.

Solution for the issue: deprecated gradle features were used in this build making it incompatible with gradle 6.0. android studio This provided solution worked for me.

First change the classpath in dependencies of build.gradle of your project From: classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.1' To: classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.1'

Then make changes in the gradle-wrapper.properties file this file exists in the Project's gradle>wrapper folder From: distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.4.1-all.zip To: distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.6.4-all.zip

Then Sync your gradle.

Run the Gradle build with a command line argument --warning-mode=all to see what exactly the deprecated features are.

It will give you a detailed description of found issues with links to the Gradle docs for instructions how to fix your build.

Adding --stacktrace to that, you will also be able to pinpoint where the warning comes from, if it's triggered by outdated code in one of the plugins and not your build script.

I was getting this error. Turns out it only happened when I completely cleaned the RN caches (quite elaborate process) and then created a release build.

If I cleaned the caches, created a debug build and then a release build, everything worked. Bit worrying but works.

Note: My clean command is...

rm -r android/build ; rm -r android/app/src/release/res ; rm -r android/app/build/intermediates ; watchman watch-del-all ; rm -rf $TMPDIR/react-* ; npm start -- --reset-cache
