play-services-plugins: Can't upgrade google-play-services to 4.2.0. NullPointerException, no message

Describe the bug Hi! I encountered ununderstandable issue for me and it is hard to reproduce it. I can’t upgrade the version of ‘com.google.gms:google-services’ plugin to version 4.2.0 but on 4.1.0 and lower everything works as expected.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Set plugin version to 4.1.0 in your project
Verify gradle can configure itself, project builds
Set plugin version to 4.2.0
The only visible message is Cause: java.lang.NullPointerException

Expected behavior Gradle syncs, project builds?

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Gradle version: 4.10.2, but I had tried on 5.0-rc1
Android Studio version: 3.3 beta 3 (Canary)
Plugin name and version: google-services-plugin 4.2.0

Additional context Project contains of about 15 modules. Circa 1/3 of them have android plugin applied (“com.android.library”). Callstack below points at :presentation module and there you can find apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' line, at the bottom of a file. presentation module applies com.android.library plugin, not *.application one. The result of --stacktrace:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':presentation'.
> java.lang.NullPointerException

* Try:
Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Exception is:
org.gradle.api.ProjectConfigurationException: A problem occurred configuring project ':presentation'.

Only downgrade to version 4.0.2 of ‘com.google.gms:google-services’ works for me. 4.2.0 throws java.lang.NullPointerException during build 4.1.0 version does not create /build/generated/res/google-services/{build_type}/values/values.xml file and application throws java.lang.IllegalStateException: Default FirebaseApp is not initialized in this process. Make sure to call FirebaseApp.initializeApp(Context) first.

With Android Studio 3.3 Stable, I have also encountered this issue.

Did anyone find a workaround that doesn’t involve downgrading Google Services Plugin version?

ziem on Mar 6, 2019

For me it always happens when trying to add the google.gms.service plugin inside an android library plugin. It automatically throws the NPE.

Unfortunately, your workaround @shlusiak doesn’t fix this problem (NullPointerException). 😞

Downgrading Google Services Plugin to 4.1.0

classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.0"
classpath "com.google.gms:google-services:4.1.0"

or downgrading Android Gradle Plugin to 3.2.0

classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0"
classpath "com.google.gms:google-services:4.2.0"

are the only workarounds that work for me but none of them is a long term solution.

Hi, any update about this?

gagan-3035 on Apr 20, 2019

Please see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54441456/cant-update-to-com-google-gmsgoogle-services4-2-0

A workaround that works for me that does not involve downgrading com.google.gms:google-services is to append

com.google.gms.googleservices.GoogleServicesPlugin.config.disableVersionCheck = true

to the bottom of the build.gradle file. Note that this is a different exception message and may not relate to the same issue. But maybe it helps.

Okay so I am now able to use Google Services 4.2.0.

So in my experience I have two modules. An API module that implements firebase libraries. As well as a App module that also implements firebase libraries.

My App module implements the Api module. In my Api Gradle module I removed the google services plugin as well as the google-services.json file.

I only included the google services plugin and the google-services.json file in the app module.

In my case it now works.

Fixed in version 4.3.0. This issue should now be closed.

I have managed to make it work with a version downgrade:

project build:

classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.0.2'
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.1'

data module (where i have Firebase dependencies): apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

I hope they solve the bug soon

I’m also getting this error. My project has library modules and an app module. One of these library modules depends on Firebase and a library module too. I apply the plugin on the app module, but I get unresolved dependencies even though I set up the repositories correctly (google() first in allprojects { … }). I tried to apply the plugin on the library too, but now get this error.

Frankly speaking, the new version scheme that started in version 15.0.0 has been a horror story so far, and I’d have thought it would improve after these months, but here I am…

Same problem here with Android Studio 3.3 Stable. Does Anyone know how to solve the issue?

I downgrade to gradle 3.2.1 and it works perfectly.
