I am trying to run CI build with Github action for a multi-project containing java modules but keep getting “task ‘clean’ not found in root project ‘${rootProjectName}’.” When I added ./gradlew tasks to the workflow, the output does not include Build and Verification tasks. See output below:

This does not happen on my local machine. Below is the content of my github_action.yml file:

name: CI-Quality

on: pull_request

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v1
      - uses: actions/setup-java@v1
        with:
          java-version: 11
      - run: chmod +x ./gradlew
      - run: ./gradlew tasks
      - run: ./gradlew clean check
      - run: ./gradlew assemble

Removed settings.gradle from .gitignore fixed the issue.
