I am tried to solve this issue in VSCode, flutter. I tried all possible solutions, and it works for few days then again same thing happens.
here is what i tried:
1-
changed in gradle.properties the following line
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1536m
to
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1024m
and
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx512m
2-
changed in gradle-wrapper.properties the following line
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.7-all.zip
to
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.0.2-bin.zip
3-
delete the emulator and make the new one
4-
free some space
I have windows 10 in my pc and, 64-bit operating system. please let me know if anyone can resolve this issue.
The general steps I would use are:
run flutter doctor in terminal
if you are using an emulator make sure it has enough space (often it needs a restart to clear junk files created upon consecutive deploys)
if the gradle files have been modified it is recommended to open them with Android Studio (Android folder of the application). If anything is missing the IDE will prompt you to install the missing dependencies.
I was trying to continue my Flutter learning and just tried to open the project. I opened the android studio, it showed me the project that I had opened the last time. Then I proceed to File->Open to open the project I specifically used for learning (let's call it L). But then android studio was stuck on open file dialog box (shown in screenshot).

It just stuck there for more than 10 minutes, until I decided that there is something wrong and hit the cancel button. I can still access my project using File->Open Recent, though.
Questions are, what caused it? What can I do to fix it?
I've tried:
Uninstalling android studio and reinstalling it
Running disk defragment (I don't know if it is relevant. I thought that maybe something in my drive caused it)
Somehow I was able to made it past the loading when I do the following:
Open Java Project from Open Recent
Let the gradle build run, wait until gradle finish downloading files
Click File->Open
But when I came back to L from Open Recent and go to open file menu, it stuck again
I also tried googling "android studio stuck on open project screen" or "android studio cannot open file" but there's nothing I can use there
Additional Information
Android Studio Version 4.1
Flutter version 1.20.3
Dart SDK version 2.9.2
Please help
i have been using vs code for flutter for 3 months and now i got into this issue
syntax prediction works and flutter run is also working but syntax color is gone
Also i have uninstalled every extensions and reinstalled vs code
here is the console screenshot
It appears that one of the files in the Dart extension may be corrupt on your disk (syntaxs/dart.json). I would try to uninstall the extension and re-install it.
If that does not help, please check the contents of the .vscode-extensions folder in your home directory in the Dart-Code folder syntaxes/dart.json and see why it is not valid json.
I've seen this once before (https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/73134) though it's not clear why it happened.
I have a question. I am using vscode and yesterday VScode is broken and deleted and re-installed But when I debug my project in vscode, there is no response and the computer does not show any error. I couldn't understand where there was an error.I would be very happy if you could help. I cannot progress in the
project, please help.enter image description here
I had the same problem and solved it by doing:
Uninstall VS Code dart and flutter extensions and close VS Code.
After this go to: vscode\extensions and remove all the files.
Run VS Code As Administrator.
Open VS Code and install dart and flutter extensions.
The cause for me might be that when you uninstall an extension files aren't erased.
I hope I helped you
Install 'Recommended' to the current extensions (shown at the bottom right when you launch VS ). This resolved mine.
I just tried to execute Flutter: New Project, but it shows an error that could not find a flutter SDK.
I've ensured to complete all of the requirements from the flutter doctor.
Is there any way to solve this problem?
Thanks.
On macOS this was solved by following these steps.
First find where you downloaded the flutter sdk (Can be downloaded from here). It should be in your downloads folder unless you selected somewhere else.
Next:
Open up Terminal. Run the following command: sudo nano /etc/paths
Enter your password, when prompted.
Go to the bottom of the file, and enter the path you wish to add.
Hit control-x to quit.
Enter “Y” to save the modified buffer.
If the sdk is downloaded into your Downloads folder, your path to add should be /Users/yourusername/Downloads/flutter/bin
Lastly, quit and restart your terminal windows and VS Code. After restarting, both apps should recognize flutter and running flutter doctor should now work.
If you installed Flutter extension please restart VS_CODE and try it again. I already had the same problem.
The thing is VSCode looks for .packages file in your Flutter project this file contains path to your Flutter SDK & some other metadata. You're getting this error because either the .packages file is missing or either the path to Flutter SDK in .packages file contains some discrepancies.
To resolve it, you can;
Either edit the .packages file & set the path.
Or if you already have a working Flutter project then a .packages must've been already created. Copy that file & paste it in the root directory of your project.
Restart VSCode & run flutter pub get
This should resolve the issue.
Check your environment variables:
Look for the PATH if it exists append the full path to flutter\bin
using ; as a separator from existing values.
If it does not exist, create a new user variable named PATH with the
full path to flutter\bin as its value.
And check the installation guide
After doing this:
Open VS Code.
Press Ctrl + Shift + P.
Then type flutter and select run flutter doctor it should be fixed now.
Create a new project to make sure it's run.
For Linux Users
For future visitors :)
I had the same problem, in my Terminal flutter doctor or in general flutter was recognized, but VSCode couldn't recognize my SDK location so flutter doctor for instance didn't work.
The first thing to do is to follow the steps in flutter documentation: Flutter Doc
If it didn't work, change the environment variables directly.
sudo nano /etc/environment
Now add the location of the bin folder of your flutter SDK, The folder that you downloaded from here.
For example, you extracted it here: /Home/User/Software
Add /Home/User/Software/flutter/bin to the PATH variable. Paths are separated by a colon(:)
After a few solutions I tried, this one worked.
For Windows
Open Visual Studio Code
Click Locate SDK
Find your flutter folder
Click Save
Re-open your Visual Studio Code
Press Ctrl + Shift + P
Type flutter and choose Flutter: New Application Project
Type your project name (e.g: flutter_application_1)
Select a folder to create the project in
If you want to change your flutter sdk location
Go to Visual Studio Code > Manage > Setting (or with shortcut Ctrl
Search dart
Find [dart] configure setting to be overriden for [dart] language
Click Edit in settings.json
You'll see :
{
"dart.sdkPath": "C:\\tools\\dart-sdk",
"dart.flutterSdkPath": "C:\\tools\\flutter",
"[dart]": {
"editor.tabSize": 2,
"editor.insertSpaces": true,
"editor.detectIndentation": false,
"editor.suggest.insertMode": "replace"
}
}
Replace dart.sdkPath and dart.flutterSdkPath with your new sdk location
Installing Flutter on Linux is a breeze using snapd as is documented officially. But then trying to create a Flutter project by following the official steps as mentioned here - Test drive - Flutter will throw an error similar to the description provided in the question.
On a side note though, you don't have to bother adding Flutter to PATH if it was installed using snapd.
Rather, follow these steps:
flutter create <insert_app_folder_name>
cd <insert_app_folder_name>
code .
What it really does is:
The Flutter binary is called from within snapd & creates a project with a directory name you provide.
You can now cd into that specific directory.
Call VSCode in the current directory which opens a VSCode instance within the project directory.
Refer to the answer by #maheshmnj about the .package. This file was created by Flutter earlier if you followed the aforementioned steps.
This means the Flutter extension couldn't find the Flutter SDK automatically (eg. by looking in your PATH or a path configured with dart.flutterSdkPath). Clicking Locate SDK should let you browse to the SDK manually and record that location for the next time. If you see this again after restarting, that's definitely a bug in the Dart/Flutter extension, so please open an issue at https://github.com/Dart-Code/Dart-Code and include the output from clicking the Show Log button, as well as noting whether there's a dart.flutterSdkPath setting in your VS Code User Settings.
If you have just installed the flutter extension, close all the vs code applications running and restart the vs code then it will work as expected.
In order to run a new flutter project,
Go to vs code-> View tab -> command pallette -> select Flutter ->
give a name to the project ->give the path of the project
Now you are good to go with flutter.
I would like to complete NoobN3rd information.
In VSCode Linux I used this steps:
sudo nano /etc/environment
Type your password
I added 3 paths at the end of line:
3.1 /"flutter instalation directory"/flutter/bin
3.2 /"flutter instalation directory"/flutter/packages
3.3 /"flutter instalation directory"/flutter/dev
Save it and reboot your system
Look at my environment file to have an example:
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/home/paulo/development/flutter/bin:/home/paulo/development/flutter/packages:/home/paulo/development/flutter/dev"
if youknow where have you extracted your zip file of dart(Eg. at the time of extraction i setup the path C:\src\flutter)
then in vs code goto
c drive
-src
-flutter
-bin
-cache
-(dart-sdk)
select this folder and your
vs code will be adjusted.
I was facing the same problem. I've initially followed all the steps provided by installation guide of Flutter and was able to run an existing project using flutter run command.
So I've tried again repeating the very same steps of the installation guide and changed the path that I initially set like:
export PATH="$PATH:~/path/to/flutter/bin"
For one like:
export PATH="$PATH:/home/user/path/to/flutter/bin"
Then I run source ~/.bashrc and restarted Visual Code and worked! so I suppose that it was something related to ~ in the path.
I would like to add a complementary and alternative response to the Linux solutions given by NoobN3rd, Traufvihal and Paulo Ravaiano.
I'm using Manjaro and for some reason my Visual Studio Code was not picking up all the environment variables definition. I tried all the solutions and finally I realised the problem was not with the variables definition (my final solution contains them all in ~/.bashrc but it should work with /etc/environment as well) but on how Visual Studio Code was launched.
In case someone else is facing this problem, I noticed that running VS Code from the applications menu fails to link the environment variables for some reason. On the other hand, launching "code-oss" from the terminal does the trick and picks all my variables defined in my ~/.bashrc file.
Hope it helps!
I just got out of the same trouble, after numerous hit and trials trying to run flutter commands from vs code terminal the below set of steps got the things up for me.
In Ubuntu 18.04
Grab the path of the directory where flutter was unpacked by you.Mine was in the Home directory for the root user. Location can be any of your choice.
Go to the Home for your root user
Un-hide all of the hidden files in this directory.
Look for .bashrc file. Do not look for .profile file.
Open .bashrc file using nano/vim/text editor which ever you like.
Scroll to the bottom of the file and add this line -
export PATH="$PATH:pwd/flutter_linux/flutter/bin"
Quit all instances of the vscode (if any) opened.
Re-open and in the terminal type which flutter
Here -
I had re-named the un-zipped folder name like "flutter_linux_v1.12.13+hotfix.9-stable" with "flutter_linux"
Hope this helps......
i was also facing this error, after putting the flutter sdk path at the End of the PATH variable(not in middle or start) it works fine for me
For those who want to change their Flutter SDK path for the Dart & Flutter plugin
Click on Manage Icon(on Mac)
Click on Settings
On the Settings page, Click on Dart & Flutter.
Look for Dart: Sdk Path, click on Edit in settings.json
Edit dart.flutterSdkPath to your VSCode Flutter path
For me non of the answers helped.
What helped was (on macOS) opening the .bash_profile file via
sudo nano .bash_profile
and change the path to where my Flutter was as this has changed. Or add this line export PATH="$PATH:/home/user/path/to/flutter/bin"
hope this helpes.
QUICK SOLUTION!: If on macOS, PLUS everything had been working flawlessly previously, and this happens all of a sudden, or periodically, here is what I eventually discovered...
If your mac restarted, either on its own due to a crash, freeze or overnight install of updates, and VS Code was running, it generally restores all your vscode instances, but with various environment-related errors such as this one. The reason is that you are not running in the context of a shell and you don't have access to those environment settings. See this article from the VS Code documentation.
THE SOLUTION?: Quit and restart VS code as you normally would. Others have mentioned this, but I thought it would be good to know why this happens so you aren't surprised next time.
Please refer to the Get Flutter SDK section and locate where you have installed your flutter\bin folder. In my case, I put the flutter bin in my Documents folder.
See the following image Flutter\bin location
Windows
After make sure right Flutter version is in your path: https://docs.flutter.dev/get-started/install/windows
and you can run flutter doctor successfully
in VS Code you need to go to File->Preferences->Settings (or Ctrl+,)
then search for dart.flutterSdkPath then click on "Edit in settings.json" make sure it is the right path there.
I had the same problem, the solution was:
take the folder where you have extracted your zip file (for example: C:\src\flutter\flutter) then put it in the environment variable path and restart vscode.
