Gradle 2.4 can't resolve transitive dependencies of gradle-git 1.1.0

Attempting to run the Griffon build (https://github.com/griffon/griffon) with Gradle 2.4 (downloaded with GVM 2.4.1) results in unresolved dependencies. The same build works perfectly well with Gradle 2.3

I see a “Connection reset” in your stack trace. Temporary network issues?

Executing gradle dependencies for the following build script works fine for me. Also, with the --refresh-dependencies command line option.

apply plugin: 'java'

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

dependencies {
    compile 'org.kt3k.gradle.plugin:coveralls-gradle-plugin:2.3.1'
}
3

Dependencies can be resolved if they are project dependencies (like your sample code) but fail if they are defined as build dependencies (inside buildscript).

4

That works for me as well:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'org.kt3k.gradle.plugin:coveralls-gradle-plugin:2.3.1'
    }
}

Can you try to delete your ~/.gradle/caches directory and try again?

5

I’ll try once again I have a better network connection. Then again, the build works without any problems if running with Gradle 2.3 :’(

6

OK, removing the cache makes it work (albeit there was another network reset hiccup, this time over a modem connection). I still think there’s something weird in Gradle 2.4; you should not need to wipe out the caches.

Perhaps my Gradle 2.3 cache became unstable and Gradle 2.4 is more strict?

7

I agree. You shouldn’t have to wipe out your cache. At the moment I do not know what your issue was to be honest.
