title: 'More than one file was found with OS independent path project.properties' Error in android
body: <p>I'm getting this error after I added google translate api on my project. I am using Android Studio 3.0, Gradle 3.0.0. </p>
  
  <pre><code> Error:Execution failed for task ':app:transformResourcesWithMergeJavaResForDebug'.
   More than one file was found with OS independent path 'project.properties'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have tried the solution presented <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46431090/how-to-fix-more-than-one-file-was-found-with-os-independent-path-project-prope">here</a> and <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44342455/more-than-one-file-was-found-with-os-independent-path-meta-inf-license">here</a>, but with no success.
  Also I tried downgrading gradle to version 2.3 but that didn't solve the problem either.</p>
  
  <p>My build.gradle file : </p>
