Hi there!
I am on Windows 10. I am getting an error on gradlew run after a successful build of the app I am trying to run. This app belongs to my company and I was not involved with developing it. So, I can’t change the code to fix anything. I am pasting the logs below, minus 90+ warnings that do not appear to be related. Here is what is happening:
I knew I needed to install gradle to run the app that I cloned the repo from github. So, I installed the most recent version on Gradle, 7.5. I ran the ‘gradlew build’ in the repo directory and the build was successful. When I ran ‘gradlew run’ to run the app, I got an error that it is using items deprecated in 7.0. So, I uninstalled Gradle 7.5 by deleting the directory from C:\Gradle\ and removing the environment variable.
I then went back to the Gradle site and downloaded and installed Gradle 6.9.2. I did the same process. Build was successful and I got the same error that the app is using something deprecated in 7.0.
I figured maybe this was because 6.9 was released after 7.0. So, I found the latest version before 7.0, 6.8.3. I uninstalled 6.9.2 with the same process and installed 6.8.3. Again, the build of my app was successful, but I got the message again that it could not run because of items in the app that are deprecated in 7.0.
Now, 6.8.3 definitely should not have anything from 7.0, since it was released before that time. Also, the Gradle User Manual that talks about CLI error messages for 6.8.3 lists the error in that version as something being deprecated in 5.0. This is not the error I am getting.
Can someone help me get rid of this error that says something is deprecated in 7.0 when I am running 6.8.3? I ran the ‘gradlew run --warning-mode all’ and got the following. This does not include a bunch of wanrings that do not appear to be relevant, like variables not being used and double asterisks being present that Gradle doesn’t seem to know what to do with.
Thanks so much for any help I can get. I just need this app to work.
