Recently while trying to create a new Java Gradle project with Netbeans
11.1, I received a dialog indicating the proper Gradle was not installed.
It asked if I would like to install it which   I did but during attempt I
received the following issue:

"PKIX path building failed:
sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find
valid certification path to requested target"

I suspect part of this has to do with the setup of my laptop, java
version/setup, and/or applicable proxy/firewall in place.  I'm assuming
there are some security certs which are not properly registered in some way
or it maybe using the proxy to provide some cert authentication related
matters but I'm a little unsure around this.

I thought I read recently that handling of security certs may have changed
some in recent java versions so not sure if maybe this is coming in to play.

When running IntelliJ on the same environment when trying to do some
network activity, it gives a cert dialog of some type which asks about
adding of a given cert to local store.  Is something similar needed in
Netbeans?

I suspect this may be similar to
