Gradle DSL method not found: storeFile()

Question

I'm using Android Studio 1.1.0. When I try to sync my Gradle file, I get the following error:

Gradle DSL method not found:storeFile()

Here is my gradle configuration:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 21
    buildToolsVersion "21.1.2"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "skripsi.ubm.studenttracking"
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 21
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }

    signingConfigs {
        release {
            storeFile (project.property("Students_tracking_keystore.jks") + ".keystore")
            storePassword "####"
            keyAlias "####"
            keyPassword "#####"
        }
    }
}

Can anyone help?

A couple of things to note:

The storeFile DSL method has the following signature:

public DefaultSigningConfig setStoreFile(File storeFile)

i.e. it expects a File to be passed in. You probably need to place a File constructor in your code to ensure you are actually creating a File object. Because you're currently not passing in a file, Gradle is complaining that it can't find a method with the appropriate signature.

Secondly, you are currently appending two suffices to the filename: .jks and .keystore. You should only include one of these based on the suffix of the file you are referencing (it's probably .jks, but you should check to be sure).

In short, one of the following replacement lines will probably work for you:

storeFile file(project.property("Students_tracking_keystore") + ".keystore")

or

storeFile file(project.property("Students_tracking_keystore") + ".jks")

or

storeFile file(project.property("Students_tracking_keystore.keystore"))

or

storeFile file(project.property("Students_tracking_keystore.jks"))
