execution failed for task code example

Example: execution failed for task

Found the solution to this problem:

gradle assemble -info gave me the hint that the Manifests have different SDK Versions and cannot be merged.

I needed to edit my Manifests and build.gradle file and everything worked again.

To be clear you need to edit the uses-sdk in the AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="14" android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
and the android section, particularly minSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion in the build.gradle file

android {
    compileSdkVersion 17
    buildToolsVersion "17.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 14
        targetSdkVersion 16
    }
}
