Issue with Android package downloads from jcenter.bintray.com

Incident Report for Bitrise CI

Resolved

Error rates getting better but some package install failures might still happen - in this case please contact JFrog Bintray's support: support@jfrog.com.

Update

Unfortunately the issue still persists. Some users reported that if the dependencies are in maven as well then switching the maven and jcenter repositories (putting maven in the first place) can mitigate the issue.

Identified

There’s an ongoing jcenter.bintray.com issue which affects all Android package downloads from jcenter.bintray.com.

A simple and reliable mitigation can be to configure a Bitrise Build Cache for your Android project, so your dependencies are cached and don’t have to be downloaded from bintray. You can find a guide for the setup at: https://discuss.bitrise.io/t/how-to-cache-gradle-dependencies/194
