After updating to Gradle 5.2, builds fail with "Problems reading data from Binary store in .../gradle908977521929543055.bin (exist: false)" while resolving dependencies, for example "Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration :app:acceptanceRuntimeClasspath". A variant of the failure reports "Corrupt serialized resolution result. Cannot find selected module" for a module version that is not even in the source dependencies. It hits multi-module Android projects with Kotlin and Android Gradle Plugin.

A Gradle maintainer confirmed this is not caused by the Gradle version itself: the corrupt serialized resolution result varies with the order dependencies are processed, which can change for many reasons. Run the build with --stacktrace to identify the actual dependency whose resolution result is corrupt, then check for version conflicts or stale metadata around that module. In one reported case the failure listed androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-viewmodel-savedstate:2.6.0 while the project depended on 2.6.1, aligning the dependency versions cleared it. Clearing caches alone does not reliably fix it.
