Android Studio Could not call IncrementalTask.taskAction() on task ':project:dexDebug'
- by akenawell85x
I recently decided to switch from Eclipse to Android Studio. I imported a project I was working on and am now getting this error when I try to run the project.
Gradle: Execution failed for task ':project:dexDebug'.

I've been cruising this site for 2 days now and trying different suggestions to no avail. I did run gradlew compileDebug --stacktrace and this is what I got:
C:\Users\adam\AndroidStudioProjects\projectProject>gradlew compileDebug --stacktrace
Relying on packaging to define the extension of the main artifact has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 2.0

However I am still getting that error when I try to actually run the project. Here is my build.gradle (i do have a 'libs' folder in my project with all the jars for a google maps/places app):
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.6.+'
}
}
apply plugin: 'android'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
android {
compileSdkVersion 18
buildToolsVersion "18.1.1"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 8
targetSdkVersion 18
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs')
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:3.2.25'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:18.0.0'
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:+'
}
and my settings.gradle:
include ':project', ':project:libs:android-support-v4', ':project:libs:google-api-client-1.10.3-beta',
':project:libs:google-api-client-android2-1.10.3-beta', ':project:libs:google-http-client-1.10.3-beta',
':project:libs:google-http-client-android2-1.10.3-beta', ':project:libs:google-oauth-client-1.10.1-beta',

':project:libs:jsr305-1.3.9', ':project:libs:protobuf-java-2.2.0', ':project:libs:GoogleAdMobAdsSdk-6.4.1'
As I said, I've tried pretty much everything I have read on here about this error and am having no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
