When building my project with gradle, it gets stuck on the processResources task.
I have a multi project setup: i have a root with under that 3 projects: adminutils-common, adminutils-fabric and adminutils-bukkit.
When i run the build task, it works, until it gets to any of the processResources tasks, it just stays on that task forever, it just never stops, one time it was still on the task after 18 minutes.
It also does this if i somehow skip adminutils-bukkit and it gets to adminutils-fabric. When i run it with
–debug it constantly logs something (I would upload picture, but can only do 1 media embed, so you can find it in the gist).
Here is a gist with some important files, does someone know why it’s getting stuck?
“the thing it logs” is nothing interesting.
Just regular maintenance task of an idle daemon.
This shows nothing interesting at all.
Maybe you should start with ruling out the IDE and run the build from commandline to see whether it behaves idffernetly there.
From a very cursory look I don’t see anything suspicious.
If it also happens from commandline, you might consider using the GitHub - gradle/gradle-profiler: A tool for gathering profiling and benchmarking information for Gradle builds to gain more insight on what is happening.
From what it looks like it also does this from commandline, I will use the tool today, i will update you if i have used it.

Ok so a bit late, I forgot to post and was a bit busy, but when I ran it with the profiler it got stuck too because it just keeps getting stuck on processResources, so that won’t help the problem.
Of course it also gets stuck, but you can use the profiler to see where it is stuck, what is stuck exactly.
It just shows the processResources task, where would i see where it is stuck?
Well, use the profiler?
Alternatively, you can maybe also run through debugger and look at a thread dump
Ok, so I misunderstood it at first, but what profiler should i use? Like what is the best for the place of <>?
So I ran it with this command to try.
I started it at 15:59 as you can see and I ended it at 19:50 (I forgot that i still had it running).

Ok, so I misunderstood it at first, but what profiler should i use?
Whichever you are most familiar with or have a license for.
buildscan is not a profiler.
What I meant is using one of the actual profilers that are supported and then use the profiler to find out what is happening.
I am not familiar with any of them and don’t even really know what they do. Can you recommend one?
Of the ones I know, I like JProfiler the most.
I don’t really get how it works, it shows all these tabs but don’t know where i can find what i need.
I’m sorry, but this is a Gradle forum, not a profiler teaching place, so I’m not going to teach you how to use a profiler.
A profiler is an essential tool for any software developer that helps you to find out where your program spends its time, where it consumes the memory, where you might have memory leaks, and many other things, so you should learn how to use one anyway, just not here.
