Getting plugins from jcenter no longer works

Suddently building fails getting plugins.

This has worked fine before, but not anymore.
Sometimes it is a different plugin that fails this way.

Has it something to do with JFrog to Shut down JCenter and Bintray?

I’m also seeing this error. Curling the URL https://jcenter.bintray.com/org/beryx/badass-runtime-plugin/1.12.4/badass-runtime-plugin-1.12.4.module directly takes over a minute.

Are there any issues currently?

Facing the same issue.
It’s seems that Gradle Plugin Portal redirects to JCenter when a requested file is not found and JCenter seems to have downtime now …

A way around this was to configure our nexus maven repository during buildscript.
Then it would fetch gradle plugins through our Nexus instead.

build.gradle

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url publicRepoUrl
        }
    }
}

I ended up with putting this within an init.d gradle script in our gradle distribution

GRADLE_HOME/init.d/repositories.gradle

allprojects {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url publicRepoUrl
        }
    }
    buildscript {
        repositories {
            maven {
                url publicRepoUrl
            }
        }
    }
}

I also see the same error now: Gradle Status - JCenter slow response time

See JCenter shutdown impact on Gradle builds. JFrog may have disabled even read-only access. This is why you should setup an internal repo, like Artifactory or Nexus.

Hey folks,

The issue was resolved a couple hours later on the same day.
Service is back online.
We are actively working to reduce the JCenter dependency as much as possible.

Note that while JFrog announced a read-only version of JCenter would stay up, this shows it may not have the quality of service Gradle needs.

As a reminder, you can use status.gradle.com to check for any disruption to service.

Hi, thanks for your suggestion.
I tried your solution but it seems gradle will still try to connect jcenter anyway.

①I changed my local host and point jcenter.bintray.com to an non-exist ip like 192.168.0.5
②Applied the script you suggested at the beginning of the build
then , still got something like this ( timeout error in the end)

I can see it tries to connect to https://plugins.gradle.org, but in my case I can see it downloads the plugin from our Nexus.

Correct me If I am wrong but your nexus stores the dependency because it was downloaded from the Gradle Plugin Portal/jcenter in the past. Try to download a new dependency (that is not in Gradle Plugin Portal and normally would redirect to jcenter AND was not downloaded in the past) from your nexus. Most probably it will download it from jcenter and store it so further calls will not require jcenter.

This issue is back again. It seems like the jcenter bintray SSL cert is now expired.

I’ve had trouble with 2 gradle plugins in recent minutes.

Example:

Adding this to ‘settings.gradle’ in my affected projects seems to fix the issue:

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
        gradlePluginPortal()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

It seems like the issue is indeed back again. For the context, I was using the flutter_blue plugin just fine a few days ago, but now I encounter a bunch of errors, and all of them are related to jcenter bintray SSL cert.
