I’m trying to build Gardle 3.0 from source and get an error in org.gradle.cleanup.EmptyDirectoryCheckTest when compiling buildSrc. I’m on Windows 10 and the error has to do with 8.3 filenames:

``

tee.getCause().getMessage().contains(targetDir.path)

Hi Tilo,

This issue has already been fixed (https://github.com/gradle/gradle/pull/679). The fix will be included in the 3.1 release.

For now, you could use one of the nightly builds (https://gradle.org/gradle-nightly-build).
