java - Android Studio / Intellij, Gradle Error:Cause: peer not authenticated

Question

Having a fight with IntelliJ at the moment. The darn thing won't download Gradle 2.1

I have an Android project hosted on GitHub, which I have cloned to my laptop. I have got working SSL certificates, I know this as I can download SDK software from google using SSL, and I can also download Gradle 1.12. The message I have received from IntelliJ is the rather infamous Error:Cause: peer not authenticated error.

From the terminal running IntelliJ I get this:

    * What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'SomeAndroidProject'.
> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':classpath'.
   > Could not resolve com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.13.0.
     Required by:
         :SomeAndroidProject:unspecified
      > Could not HEAD 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/tools/build/gradle/0.13.0/gradle-0.13.0.pom'.
         > peer not authenticated

I have search far and wide across the internet, with no avail. Please help me wise SO guru's!

Change your repositories syntax in build.gradle as following. See following question.

repositories {
    jcenter {
        url "http://jcenter.bintray.com/"
    }
}
