I get the “execution failed for task ‘:app:processdebugresources’.” issue when trying to run my project. Here is the detail of the error I got the error message:

    The cause: This error happens because android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Inverse was only added in API Level 23. Attempts to use it with a compileSdkVersion less than 23 will fail.

    The solution: In your module’s build.gradle file, set compileSdkVersion to 23, this error will be fixed.

  2. Issue Solved By making library and application the same… compileSdkVersion, and buildToolsVersion.

    library build.gradle 

    android {

 compileSdkVersion 25
 buildToolsVersion "25.0.0"
 .....
 .....
}

    app build.gradle 

    android {

 compileSdkVersion 25
 buildToolsVersion "25.0.0"
 .....
 .....
}
