Facing issues while building project with gradle

Question

I have a simple gradle project, where the build.gradle is as follow:

// Apply the java-library plugin to add support for Java Library
apply plugin: 'java-library'

// In this section you declare where to find the dependencies of your project
repositories {
    // Use jcenter for resolving your dependencies.
    // You can declare any Maven/Ivy/file repository here.
    jcenter()
 }

dependencies {
    // This dependency is exported to consumers, that is to say found on their compile classpath.
    api 'org.apache.commons:commons-math3:3.6.1'

    // This dependency is used internally, and not exposed to consumers on their own compile classpath.
    implementation 'com.google.guava:guava:21.0'

    // Use JUnit test framework
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
}

Now while I am running gradle build I am getting an error as :

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong: Could not create service of type ScriptPluginFactory using BuildScopeServices.createScriptPluginFactory(). Could not create service of type FileHasher using BuildSessionScopeServices.createFileSnapshotter().

• Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

• Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

BUILD FAILED in 1s

Full stacktrace is as follow :

    Exception is:
    org.gradle.internal.service.ServiceCreationException: Could not create service of type ScriptPluginFactory using BuildScopeServices.createScriptPluginFactory().

I am not very experienced with gradle. Can you please give me a bit insight what I am doing wrong?

Answer 1

In your stacktrace there is the line Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins\workspace\gradlePipeline\.gradle\4.5\fileHashes\fileHashes.lock (Access is denied)

So I'm going to assume you've put your Jenkins workspace into your program files directory, and running your build from a non-elevated process, which means it cannot write into the program files.

Configure your Jenkins slave to put the workspace into a directory where it has write access.
