BUG! exception in phase 'semantic analysis' in source unit '_BuildScript_' Unsupported class file major version 61 on Apple Arm

Issue

I have installed Android Studio Canary 2020.3.1.22 and trying to run Flutter project on Apple Silicon(ARM) Mac. Unfortunately, it is giving me this error when I try to run default flutter counter app.

Here is the error I am getting:

Could not open settings generic class cache for settings file '/Users/khamidjonkhamidov/StudioProjects/dummy/android/settings.gradle' (/Users/khamidjonkhamidov/.gradle/caches/6.7/scripts/f0emg6u6oecmxqzgk5g9nn4ui).
> BUG! exception in phase 'semantic analysis' in source unit '_BuildScript_' Unsupported class file major version 61

Gradle version: 6.7 but I tried 7+ JDK version 17

I would really appreciate your help)

Solution

Basically, I installed jdk using brew install java which was not compatible with my current gradle I guess. So

1. I uninstalled java first using: brew uninstall java
2. installed JDK 8 or JDK 11 from azul.
3. Installed gradle: gradle-6.9-all.zip

When done, everything worked smoothly.
