'Starting a Gradle Daemon, 1 busy and 6 stopped Daemons could not be reused, use --status for details

When I was running the gradle clean command, I got the following message

Starting a Gradle Daemon, 1 busy and 6 stopped Daemons could not be reused, use --status for details

For the investigation, I run the following command.

$ gradle --status
   PID STATUS   INFO
 11506 BUSY     4.3.1
  8027 STOPPED  (stop command received)
  9347 STOPPED  (stop command received)
 11727 STOPPED  (by user or operating system)
  4786 STOPPED  (by user or operating system)
 14569 STOPPED  (by user or operating system)
 31237 STOPPED  (by user or operating system)

Only Daemons for the current Gradle version are displayed. See https://docs.gradle.org/4.3.1/userguide/gradle_daemon.html#sec:status

So, some questions have arisen in my mind.

How can I stop an existing daemon?
How to kill daemon process?

Solution 1:^[1]

Stopping an existing Daemon:

If you want to explicitly stop running Daemon processes for any reason, just use the command gradle --stop.

Note: for your consideration the gradle --stop command won’t stop daemons running with a different version of Gradle.

How to kill all Daemon process on my machine?

Gradle will kill any Daemon that has been idle for 3 hours or more, so you don’t have to worry about cleaning them up manually.

Resource Link: Gradle Daemon Issue Details

So the command and output are given below:

$ gradle --stop
Stopping Daemon(s)
2 Daemons stopped

After stopping daemons, status will be look like below:

$ gradle --status
No Gradle daemons are running.
   PID STATUS   INFO
  8027 STOPPED  (stop command received)
  9347 STOPPED  (stop command received)
 12448 STOPPED  (stop command received)
 11506 STOPPED  (stop command received)
 11727 STOPPED  (by user or operating system)
  4786 STOPPED  (by user or operating system)
 14569 STOPPED  (by user or operating system)
 31237 STOPPED  (by user or operating system)

I solve it with another method in other post. By removing folders like 4.4 4.6 5.4.1 5.5 in directory as below

/users/[username]/.gradle/daemon

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded

Solution 3:^[3]

My problem solved only by changing gradle version from:

App\android\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties

old: distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.7-all.zip
new: distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.9-all.zip

Solution 4:^[4]

just reboot ur computer then go to .gradle folder and delete the daemon folder

Solution 5:^[5]

Just add two lines in your app -> Gradle Scripts -> gradle properties

org.gradle.daemon=true

org.gradle.parallel=true

Solution 6:^[6]

For linux users

step 1 : cd ~ && rm -rf .gradle

step 2 : cd <to flutter working project directory>

step 3 : flutter run -v then kill process with ctrl+c .gradle dir will be created in /home/<user>/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-<version>-all/9uukhhbclvbegdvsww0j0cr3p

step 4 : download gradle zip version on official website

step 5 : copy and paste the downloaded gradle inside /home/<user>/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-<version>-all/9uukhhbclvbegdvsww0j0cr3p

step 6 : run flutter run -v

step 7 : everything is ok
