I am having trouble with running my code, it is building successful but it fails to run giving the following error: C\Users\hp\.gradle\caches\8.11.1\transforms\2ab28fd56374bd5aaba63db5d8683fc2\transformed\fragment 1.5.7\res\values\values.xml24 <item> inner element must either be a resource reference or empty. FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Please do not split topics across several threads. This makes following the conversation in the threads view very hard as the context of the other messages is missing. If you have additional information either edit the original message or post to its thread. Regarding the problem, you say it is building successful but fails running, then it would not be a Gradle topic at all as Gradle is the too that does the build. But then you post an error that happens during building, not during running, so what is it now? But anyway, it complains about something in some android resource file, to does not sound at all like a Gradle related problem to me. You might consider asking instead in some Android community, or at least move your highly Android-specific question to #CJYS1DAP5 🙂
