Go to the directory where you have Android Studio. Then go to the bin/ subdirectory. Locate the following files, which contains Java Virtual Machine options:

  • studio.vmoptions
  • studio64.vmoptions

Open these files and locate line with MaxPerSize parameter. It should look as follows:

XX:MaxPermSize=256m

Remove this line in both files. I don't know if you are using 32-bit or 64-bit operating system, so you can update both files just in case.

I'm not sure if it will solve your problem, but I would try it in such situation. In my case, with this option and Java 8, I just get the warning, but Android Studio starts anyway. After removing this parameter, Android Studio still starts, but without warning. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

EDIT:

There is another solution for this problem described here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/27913562/1150795.

Go to File > Other Settings > Default Project Structure > JDK location and check the path.

In case of Ubuntu Linux, we can set /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle as default JDK if we are using Oracle JVM. JDK 7 is the safest option for Android.

  • you had it in your error log: support was removed in 8.0. JDK8 made some changes for which Android Studio with Gradle was not prepared :-D
