Gradle 4: unexpected initialization error

George2 · June 2, 2017, 12:25pm

Hi, working with Gradle 4-rc-1, it fails with such stacktrace:

* What went wrong:
argument type mismatch

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

BUILD FAILED in 0s

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
This operation (org.gradle.internal.progress.BuildProgressLogger - Initializing build) has already been 
completed.

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

It occurs quite often but some times build passes, thought that this was because of previous build, which was on existing daemon saved the build phase on it, but it is not. Can somebody assist figuring out, why is it happening?

bmuschko · June 2, 2017, 12:46pm

Can you please provide us with more information about your environment? It would be helpful if you could create a build scan for deeper insight. Please also run with -s and provide the stack trace.

George2 · June 2, 2017, 12:54pm

Here is a stacktrace

BUILD FAILED in 17s

George2 · June 2, 2017, 12:56pm

It can be reproduced if you run a build and while it is running perform gradle --stop. The existing build will stop either and rebuild will be failed with this error

bmuschko · June 2, 2017, 1:09pm

Why would you want to stop the daemon while it processes your build?

George2 · June 2, 2017, 1:11pm

No, I meant the possible way to reproduce it. It occurs on a regular basis without this steps

bmuschko · June 2, 2017, 1:54pm

I personally cannot reproduce your issue.

I’d still need some additional information about your environment e.g. OS, JDK etc.
What tasks do you run?
Do you have a sample project you can provide to us?
Is this a new issue or did the issue also occur with 3.5?

Most of this information is captured by a build scan.

George2 · June 2, 2017, 2:40pm

This is only occured in new version, 3.5 is stable from that perspective. Run any task: even launching build without tasks. I will try to do my best aquire more information about this behaviour. Thank you in advance

eriwen · June 2, 2017, 3:11pm

This is related to some changes I made in 4.0 (use of beforeComplete event).

Could you please try your build with --console=plain and see if the issue occurs?

It’d be helpful to know if you are doing any of the following:

Using --parallel
Using the buildSrc directory
Using Composite Builds
Running any GradleBuild tasks

Thanks for reporting. I’ll look into this.

Cheers,
Eric

eriwen · June 2, 2017, 3:29pm

I have filed https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/2239 and I’d appreciate any additional details you have there.

Thanks again.

George2 · June 2, 2017, 4:13pm

Hi, eriwen

Tried without buildSrc. Speaking of parallel execution, I’ve firstly faced with this issue, using --parallel flag, but later mentioned problem in single-threaded build, with --console=plain, issue still occurs.

GradleBuild task used very frequently. But tested on other project without this task, still failing

Thank you for response

eriwen · June 2, 2017, 8:58pm

Wow, this is tough to reproduce so far. There must be something common to your projects that is generally uncommon, as the hundreds of test projects tried so far have not encountered this problem.

It would be especially helpful if you could begin to:

break down a project to the simplest example that still causes the issue (super bonus points if you can even make a whole small project and share it)
give me at as much information about that project as you can; for example, the structure, the plugins, the technologies, configuration, environment, etc.

Thanks for continuing to dig into this. We definitely don’t want to ship 4.0 without fixing this, if possible.

Cheers,
Eric

George2 · June 5, 2017, 11:00am

Right, to construct a project, I need to point out, how to archive stable reproduction. At the moment, I’ve figured out workaround of this issue: it works fine, if daemon is disabled. Error constantly occurs after it’s first occurence. It can be fixed by stopping all daemons and rerunning the build, but fix is inconsistent as sometimes it doesn’t work. Still figuring out, thank you

echemezov · June 16, 2017, 6:04am

I had the same problem for my project. It was because of buildDir=target in gradle.properties file.

George2 · June 16, 2017, 6:59am

Checked, if I remove the override of buildDir property, it does the trick
