How to figure out 'Cannot notify ProjectEvaluationListener' errors

[RickFish (Rick Fishman)]

Using gradle 4.8.1-all.jar and building the latest master branch from GitHub Netflix Conductor.

I am getting this error in the build of a project with subprojects. There is no information that tells me what the actual problem is. How do I diagnose the issue?

“Cannot notify listeners of type ProjectEvaluationListener as these listeners are already being notified.”

Top of stacktrace is this:

• Exception is:
  org.gradle.api.ProjectConfigurationException: A problem occurred configuring project ‘:conductor-cassandra-persistence’.
  at org.gradle.configuration.project.LifecycleProjectEvaluator.addConfigurationFailure(LifecycleProjectEvaluator.java:109)

[Gary_Hale]

Looking at the stacktrace, the following is happening:

1. The Artifactory build-info plugin has registered an afterEvaluate hook, which is firing at org.jfrog.gradle.plugin.artifactory.extractor.listener.ProjectsEvaluatedBuildListener.afterEvaluate(ProjectsEvaluatedBuildListener.groovy:48)
2. This in turn calls ArtifactoryTask.projectEvaluated which is executing the defaults closure configured by the nebula-bintray-plugin at nebula.plugin.bintray.NebulaOJOPublishingPlugin$_configureArtifactory_closure1$_closure3.doCall(NebulaOJOPublishingPlugin.groovy:58)
3. This in turn calls org.jfrog.gradle.plugin.artifactory.task.helper.TaskHelperPublications.checkDependsOnArtifactsToPublish(TaskHelperPublications.java:158) which tries to get all of the maven publication files for the project.
4. Gradle tries to initialize the maven publication, but one of the maven dependencies is a project dependency on another project that has not been configured yet, so Gradle tries to configure it at org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.ivyservice.projectmodule.DefaultProjectDependencyPublicationResolver.resolve(DefaultProjectDependencyPublicationResolver.java:53)
5. Which then causes the project to be configured and the afterEvaluate from that project to be fired, which causes Gradle’s ListenerManager to blow up because he’s still running the afterEvaluate of the first project.

This is really just due to the convoluted interplay of plugins in this project. Fundamentally, the artifactory plugin resolving these publications from an afterEvaluate block is probably not a good idea, but I’d hesitate to say that it’s wrong, per se. It seems like Gradle could probably avoid configuring the dependency projects when all that we’re trying to do here is get the publishable files.

In any event, this flag might be your way out. You should be able to do something like:

import org.jfrog.gradle.plugin.artifactory.task.ArtifactoryTask

allprojects {
    tasks.withType(ArtifactoryTask) {
        skip = true
    }
}

I think that’ll just skip over all of that stuff and avoid the problem.

Gary, thanks so much for the explanation and the fix. That makes it work.
