Can't rebuild Android application because Android Studio cant delete the apk folder

Prior to this issue I was having this exact issue:
Unable to clean project in Android Studio
I tried several of the answers in that question but I couldn't seem to get this resolved and I believe I have made the problem worse. I messed with the permissions (per the answers for the question above) but now I get this different error message:
Unable to open 'C:\Users\user1\AndroidStudioProjects\RyderApp\app\build\outputs\apk\app-debug.apk' as zip archive
Building the project again with stacktrace option gives me this:
* Exception is:

The best solution is to close Android Studio, navigate to the root of your project folder in command line, and run the gradlew clean command. If you have stuck processes trying to access the file that is unable to be deleted (in this case your app-debug.apk) you might need to force close the offending process in order to run this command. Usually it's an instance of the Java SDK that's the culprit.

Execution failed for task ':dex'

Im want to deploy my JavaFX application to Android. After invoking gradlew android, an error 'Execution failed for task ':dex'' shows up.
Im using JDK8u40. I also downloaded the latest dalvik-sdk. I tried the Ensemble sample in it, but that error occured. By the way, I also download Android SDK with API 21.
build.gradle:
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'org.javafxports:jfxmobile-plugin:1.0.0-b8'
}
}
apply plugin: 'org.javafxports.jfxmobile'
mainClassName = 'main.java.Life'
version = '8u40'
repositories {
jcenter()
}
jfxmobile {
ios {
forceLinkClasses = ['ensemble.**.*']
}
android {
applicationPackage = 'org.javafxports.ensemble'
}
}
Here's the complete output of the console:

Ok I found it, I download new oracle jdk 64 bit and istall it.
I think this error comes because I'm on 64 bit windows and use 32 bit jdk! with netbeans, after I remove 32 bit JDK & JRE I download 64 bit JDK from oracle site and install it and everything works good without any problem.

i uninstalled current java version and installed latest one.
and my problem got solved.

Build failed - gradle

I am building my application using Gradle. I am unable to build because it is showing "An error occurred starting the Tomcat server" I am actually trying to build an application provided by the spring tutorial http://spring.io/guides/tutorials/web/
I have checked that no other process is running on port 8080
can somebody suggest what am I doing wrong
Here is the full stack trace of error

Your problem is surely related with the stop port. Since you are not setting it, tomcat is using the default one (8081). Try to change it:
tomcatRunWar.stopPort = 8181

the problem is with the build.gradle file
maketomcatRunWar.contextPath = ''
to
tomcatRunWar{
contextPath = ''
httpPort = 8080
stopPort = 8191
}
