Could not normalise path for file

Juhan · January 23, 2012, 7:51pm

While downloading files from our repository (artifactory) once in a while we get the error of 'Could not normalise path for file…"

I couldn’t find much on the web about this kind of error… Any ideas?

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

What went wrong:

Execution failed for task ‘:fetch’.

Cause: Could not normalise path for file ‘D:\ec_build\BUILDPlatform\094\SyncServerHydrah\source_repos_cache\BCMIFW\cpp\include\bcmi\detail’.

This is new to me. Could you please try again with the ‘–stacktrace’ option. When you post the results, use a <code> block </code> to make them easier to read.

Hi,

I came across the same error when using the gradlew wrapper on another users machine running WinXP with JDK7.

If you need further information just ask.

The build.gradle file uses multiple source sets.

As a side note, the same gradle build executes without any problems on Linux. That might help in diagnosing the problem if you are trying to replicate the issue.

Regards, Jeremy

myproj common-utils The Project.dependsOnChildren() method has been deprecated and will be removed in the next version of Gradle.
