OVRBuild Error in Unity: Gradle bug Stopping Any Quest Development (both 2018 and 2019 Unity)

[Cinqed]

Hi,
I'm just getting started with Quest development on Unity. But I can't get through the initial tutorial / sample scenes. 

I get the same error starting with a "from scratch" project. All I do is add the Oculus integration and try and build one of the sample scenes to the device. Both 2018 and 2019.

The bug in Unity shows up as:

Gradle has exited unexpectedly.

UnityEngine.Debug:LogError(Object)

OculusBuildApp:BuildGradleProject() (at Assets/Oculus/VR/Editor/OVRBuild.cs:385)

OculusBuildApp:OVRBuildRun() (at Assets/Oculus/VR/Editor/OVRBuild.cs:285)

<>c:<StartBuildAndRun>b__29_0() (at Assets/Oculus/VR/Editor/OVRBuild.cs:261)

System.Threading.ThreadHelper:ThreadStart()

But the bug really comes down to the following code from OVRBuild:

while (apkOutputSuccessful == null)

{

  if (timeout.ElapsedMilliseconds > 50000)

  {

    UnityEngine.Debug.LogError("Gradle has exited unexpectedly.");

    apkOutputSuccessful = false;

  }

  System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100);

}

The problem is that apkOutputSuccessful is already false before the loop is ever reached.

Help!!
I can't even get started with Quest/Unity dev while this is going on 😞

Thanks,
Dave G
