Newbi can not run unit tests and application in eclipse

The guy that set up our gradle build is out on vacation.

I am not sure why but I am no longer able to run our junit tests and apps in eclipse. They run fine from the command line. I.E.

$ ./gradlew clean build

In eclipse I get the error bellow. It looks like eclipse is using both the gradle cache and the maven repository. I had this problem a couple of days ago and thought it was a stale jar file problem because removing the gradle cache and maven repository seemed to resolve the problem. Today rm -rf is not able to fix the problem

I have tried

  1. deleting the projects and importing them again into eclipse.
  2. using the gradle refresh all in eclipse.
  3. deleting the ~/.m2/repository and ~/.gradle/cache

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

$ …/gradlew --version

I uninstalled Pivotal 's “Gradle IDE eclipse plug” in and installed buildship from the eclipse market place. BuildShip is Gradle.org’s official Gradle support for Eclipse. Buildship is provided by the Eclipse Foundation.

The problem seems to be resolved. I think the maybe the Pivotal plug in might have messed up the eclipse project somehow?
