Could not create service of type ChecksumService using BuildSessionScopeServices.createChecksumService()

I am new in gradle and when I try to simple check gradle built in tasks, I get Build Failed error.

Can anybody explain what is wrong?

I only run 'gradle tasks' on cmd and get next error:

    FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Gradle could not start your build.
> Could not create service of type ChecksumService using BuildSessionScopeServices.createChecksumService().
   > Timeout waiting to lock checksums cache (M:\.gradle\checksums). It is currently in use by another Gradle instance.
     Owner PID: unknown
     Our PID: 14372
     Owner Operation: unknown
     Our operation:
     Lock file: M:\.gradle\checksums\checksums.lock

* Try:
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.

* Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

I was facing the same issue, and I tried using ./gradlew --stop, but that didn’t work for me.

What eventually fixed it was removing the .gradle folder in my project directory (or the global .gradle folder). After deleting it, the lock error was resolved, and I could run any gradle command without any issues.

I got this problem while building via terminal in WSL without me realizing that the Windows Intellij window I had opened was also building (typically Intellij will build by default when opening projects, or when switching branches, etc.). The building does take long and I did not notice. If that is your case, simply wait until the build is done or cancel it.

This work for me:

Close my IDE
Go to my project directory
Search and delete all .lock files
Open the IDE, and try again

For Flutter users

I faced this problem on Mac OS Monterey (M1 processor)

I solved it in the following way

Browse android/buil.gradle add or update gradle version to 7.1.2

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.1.2'. //---this
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
    }

Update distributionUrl in android/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties to 7.4

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.4-all.zip

Navigate in the terminal to the android folder and run

cd android

despues

./gradlew --stop

4.Run flutter clean and flutter pub get

flutter clean

flutter pub get

Then run flutter run

flutter run

./gradlew --stop as the error happens when gradle didn't close cleanly. Such as in: Cannot lock checksums cache (/Users/.../StudioProjects/android/.gradle/7.4.2/checksums) as it has already been locked by this process.
