The problem could be if you used Capacitor migration tool from v3 to v4. In my case, migrator added some new versions inside variables.gradle file without using quotes. For example, I had 10.1.1 instead of ‘10.1.1’ in my variables.gradle file. Once I added single quotes to all x.x.x versions (where it’s missing), build succeeded.

Thank you! I used capacitor migration tool today and got that error. My variables.gradle file had 5 variables with no single quotes and your solution solved the problem. Just the 3 first variables must be number (minSdkVersion, compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion).
