Can't Run Gradle on Corporate Windows 7

I am having a similar experience as this issue in the old forum. I am trying to run Gradle on a corporate Windows 7 machine and keep getting JNA errors. Here is the command I am running.

C:\dev\tools>"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_55\bin\java.exe" -Dorg.gradle.native=false -Dorg.gradle.appname=gradle -classpath C:\dev\tools\gradle-2.3\lib\gradle-launcher-2.3.jar org.gradle.launcher.GradleMain -v --debug --stacktrace

My user owns the Gradle directory and has full permissions.

The /dev/tools directory is proper location for installing development tools based on the policy.

I get similar errors when running prior versions of Gradle including 1.12.

Moving Gradle to other directories does not help.

I can run the same command successfully as an administrator but I can not develop as an administrator.

Tried installing the wrapper as an administrator but my user can’t run gradlew. Same error.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Wes.

I am still having an issue. This time I am trying to use the Gradle 2.7 wrapper.

I recursively set the owner of my home directory, C:\Users\wstrater, to ensure I had ownership.

Any help please. I am trying to use Gradle but keep hitting a dead end.

Wes.

Another user was having a similar problem and found a workaround: Unable to initialize native-platform. Failure: net.rubygrapefruit.platform.NativeException: Failed to initialise native integration.

The problem is I don’t know what is needed to relax permissions to allow Gradle to run. I am using the Gradle wrapper so I believe the directory is in my home directory. I have taken the sledge hammer approach and have recursively updated the ownership and granted full control.

I came across the UnsatisfiedLinkError in my enterprise and fixed it by setting my Windows temp directory to a location that had the correct permissions to run executables.
