Try running it without Gradle (there is an option in the project settings).
Also it says to “check the logs”. I don’t know what that means but I wonder if there are some logs that gradle or another service is using that you could look at to find out what went wrong.
Another thing you can try is see if you have Incredibuild installed. I seem to have lots of troubles with Incredibuild when building to Android but never knew why, so I uninstalled it and that solved some of my problems.
