I investigated into upstream bugtrackers and apparently it's a Groovy issue:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8339 I'm afraid I could not find out how to "starting java for gradle with --illegal-access=permit". Gradle itself doesn't take any jvm parameters. I think at the moment the easiest way to work around this error is allowing the Ubuntu version of Gradle to work with OpenJDK 8. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1803855 Title: Illegal reflective access operation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gradle/+bug/1803855/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
