Its possible you are trying to change the ‘configuration.provided’ object inside of a ‘doLast’ or ‘doFirst’ block. Also make sure you did not accidentally add a ‘\<\<’ (left-shift) at the top of your task definition when you are trying to configure the task. This is the same as a ‘doLast’.

You could be hitting&nbsp;[GRADLE-3101](https://issues.gradle.org/browse/GRADLE-3101 "Link httpsissuesgradleorgbrowseGRADLE-3101"), also documented in the [Gradle 2.0 release notes](http://www.gradle.org/docs/2.0/release-notes.html#+=-operator-changes-that-typically-affect-configuration-of-eclipse-and-idea-plugin "Link: http://www.gradle.org/docs/2.0/release-notes.html#+=-operator-changes-that-typically-affect-configuration-of-eclipse-and-idea-plugin").&nbsp;  
  
This will happen if you’re using the ‘+=’ operator to modify IDEA scopes, or if you’re using a plugin that does so. (I think some popular 3rd party plugins were using this syntax).
