Unable to start the daemon process

I got the following error in trying to build my project on Android

Error:Unable to start the daemon process.
This problem might be caused by incorrect configuration of the daemon.

The following resolved the problem

Step 1 : Close the open project. Go to File > Close Project

This will throw you to welcome screen.

Step 2 You will see Settings option on splash screen. Click it

This will open  the Settings window.


Step 3: Go to Compiler > Android Compilers
Add  -Xmx512m in Additional VM Options as shown below.



Step 4: Click OK. Reopen the project and build it. It should work fine.
