Answer by Stucky for Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name after upgrading to AppCompat v23

I agree with the previous answer. Your compile SDK version must match the support library. Here is what I did.

1. You can go to SDK Manager and under SDK Platform, install the Android 5.X with API level 23.
2. Under Project Structure, change compile SDK Version to API 23, and Build Tools Version to 23.0.0

Then it should build without problem.
