Which step are you stuck on?

Hi,
I have completed the setup following all steps for oppia android, and also ran git bash/setup.sh , android api level is 31 and 34.0.0 rc1 is installed, when I ran the gradle build , it failed with multiple error saying unmappable character for encoding Cp1252 and more.

Error Log

error: unmappable character for encoding Cp1252
   * Corresponds to the Hindi (हिन�?दी) macro language. IETF BCP 47 language tag: hi.
                                          ^

Approaches already used to resolve the issue

I tried to find the solution on stack overflow, tried to change the encoding format, and restarted build process after invalidating caches

Hi @MohitGupta121,

I tested the solutions provided in comment #4984. As you mentioned, the issue is connected to the jetifier, and following your suggestion, I attempted to compile using a JDK version lower than 15. Specifically, I used JDK-11, which is conveniently available for download directly from Android Studio.

Additionally, I tested the same solution with Android Studio Dolphin and Android Studio Giraffe versions, and both of them built successfully when compiled with JDK-11.

Therefore, it seems that using JDK-11 is a suitable solution.

Thanks.
