More than one file was found with OS independent path 'AndroidManifest.xml'

I have a multimodule project. After I updated Gradle to 5.4.1 and Android gradle plugin to 3.5.1 version I started getting the following error:

Execution failed for task ':Android.OTT.Framework:mergeDebugJavaResource'.
> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.Workers$ActionFacade

I saw a lot of questions like this one. But this is not my case I guess because I cannot just ignore AndroidManifest.xml files. Thanks in advance!

I tried a lot of solutions and end up with the solution -

If your are using a gradle plugin -

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.x'

you may face the same issue.

Then i tried to degrade the gradle plugin as -

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.x'

OR I recommend to use -

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.2'

which is a most stable version of gradle plugin.

Then File -> invalidate cache/restart. Clean your project and rebuild it. It will work now!

I received the same error after finally updating to AndroidX. I was alluded by some other answers to revert back some libraries to their last known working versions. Most importantly, the android gradle plugin. I have the same version as you:

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.1'

I reverted it back to my last known stable version, which for me was 3.4.0.

After syncing the project, then clean rebuilding it, the compiler actually provided a meaningful error message pointing me to something completely unrelated to any of my AndroidManifest.xml files. In other words, I got the actual issue either described or linked to a file. From there on, it was as easy as identifying the problem (usually underlined in red) and fixing it.

Therefore, I suggest you figure out the issue with an older android gradle plugin version, like

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.0'

then revert back (or keep the old one) after finally finding and fixing the issue.

Clean project and then invalidate cache and restart the studio or if it doesn't work then, Down grade your gradle version then sync and after sync completed, change it back to the latest version and sync again. Hope it will solve your problem

Based on where an error took place - in the mergeDebugJavaResource gradle task and on error message about multiple Android Manifests I can assume that the problem is that there are several manifests(for example one for debug and one for production) and there are no proper manifest merging rules.

I've encountered similar issue several times and each time it was due to the absence of proper merge rules markers. Usually I needed to remove or replace some values in my main manifest like this

<activity android:name="com.example.ActivityOne"
    android:screenOrientation="portrait"
    tools:remove="android:windowSoftInputMode">

<activity android:name="com.example.ActivityOne"
    android:theme="@newtheme"
    android:exported="true"
    android:screenOrientation="portrait"
    tools:replace="android:theme,android:exported">

it always worked.

Afterwards you can inspect merged manifest to find inconsistencies and errors and adjust your merge rule markers.

More details in the documentation

While it is not an exact answer to your question I hope it will help.
