Расширение AppCompatActivity приводит к сбою приложения

Я создаю простое приложение для тестирования AppCompat, когда я расширяю AppCompatActivity, приложение вылетает, и когда я запускаю приложение без AppCompat (расширяю android.app.Activity, и все остается прежним),

MainActivity extends Activity - работает MainActivity extends AppCompat Activity - вылетает

Тестирование на android 4.4

Добавление

 vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true

В приложении градиенты не решили проблему

Обновлять:

Полный файл gradle:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 21
    buildToolsVersion "21.1.0"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.mycompany.myapp"
        minSdkVersion 14
        targetSdkVersion 21
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
              useProguard false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
        compile "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1"
}

Мероприятия:

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity 
{
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
    }
}

XML:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width = "match_parent"
    android:layout_height = "match_parent"
    android:gravity = "center">

   <TextView
        android:text = "@string/hello_world"
        android:layout_width = "wrap_content"
        android:layout_height = "wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>

Стили:

<resources>
    <style name = "AppTheme" parent = "@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light">
    </style>
</resources>
