@gregko Please do the below 2 steps.

First, change JAVA8 from your build.gradle(app module) file to 11 like below

compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
}

Secondly, add a file in the root folder of your project-
-named jitpack.yml file with the following content.

jdk:

• openjdk11

Please read above line as below.
space hyphen space openjdk11 (Cannot escape hyphen here. it becomes a bullet point )

These two steps will solve the problem that you are facing.

This happens because of the gradle build tools version.
Latest versions requires Java 11.

Thank you, did this, but now the build on jitpack fails with message:

Configure project :

@gregko

For the error that mentioned as configure project, use the latest
-gradle plugin version in root buil.gradle file in the dependencies section as below.

dependencies {
classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.2"
}

Please check the below steps that are necessary to publish a library to jitpack.io

Omit the ones related to java 11 as you have already did those.

1. Added jitpack.io to build.gradle file of the root of the project as below.



maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }


2. Added plugin maven-publish in the build.gradle file of the module as below along with library plugin.

plugins {
id 'com.android.library'
id 'maven-publish'
}

3.Added jitpack.yml in the root of the project for JAVA 11 support

As below



jdk:

• openjdk11

4.Change java version to 11 in build.gradle file of the app module and library module inside android {} as below

compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
}

5.Add maven publication settings as below in the build.gradle of module



afterEvaluate {
publishing {
publications {
// Creates a Maven publication called "release".
release(MavenPublication) {
from components.release
groupId = 'com.github.yourgitid'
artifactId = 'your-repository'
version = 'x.x'
}
}
}
}
