I have a very simple gradle project and when I setup GitHub Actions CI I face this error:
Run ./gradlew clean dependencies
./gradlew clean dependencies
shell: /bin/bash -e {0}
env:
JAVA_HOME: /opt/hostedtoolcache/Java/8.0.222/x64
JAVA_HOME_8.0.222_x64: /opt/hostedtoolcache/Java/8.0.222/x64
/home/runner/work/_temp/8f29e484-fbb4-4e29-a02a-679519aec24c.sh: line 1: ./gradlew: Permission denied
##[error]Process completed with exit code 126.
I found the answer!
I just had to change the gradlew file permission on the git repository to make it executable using this command:
git update-index --chmod=+x gradlew
git commit -m "Make gradlew executable"
it was simple but killed my time!
To solve this issue, you might need to add chmod action before gradle one. Like this one:
- name: Change wrapper permissions
run: chmod +x ./gradlew
So overall workflow file may look like this:
name: Java CI
on: [push]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v1
- name: Set up JDK 1.8
uses: actions/setup-java@v1
with:
java-version: 1.8
- name: Change wrapper permissions
run: chmod +x ./gradlew
- name: Build with Gradle
run: ./gradlew build
Just wanted to mention another potential issue that happened to me even though the above changes were made.
I made the mistake of:
./gradle
when it was supposed to be
./gradlew
