Unable to create a Checker #15

chrisjenx · 2015-10-12T14:46:51Z

This has started appearing recently:

: Task failed with an exception.
-----------
* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':core:androidCheckstyle'.
> Unable to create a Checker: configLocation {file:/Users/chris/Git/OwlrAndroid/core/build/tmp/android-check/checkstyle.xml}, classpath {null}.

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

The only thing I can think of is maybe Gradle 2.7?
I'm still using build-tools 1.3.1

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Sorry for late answer, I was in vacation.

Could you use --stacktrace and send me the exception?

Worth noting my config is as such:

check {
  abortOnError true
  checkstyle {
    abortOnError true
    config rootProject.file("checkstyle.xml")
  }
  // configuration of PMD checker
  pmd {
    skip true
  }
}

eyedol · 2015-12-01T02:30:18Z

I had this same error because I was using version 6.13 of checkstyle. I used the config below to upgrade the checkstyle plugin. After removing that and upgraded gradle to v2.9 everything worked well. BTW I'm not using this plugin. I stumbled on this issue whiles searching for a solution. Hopefully it will give a hint on possible fix.

checkstyle {
    toolVersion = "6.13"
}

Shusshu · 2016-01-06T12:45:43Z

Same issue...
@chrisjenx found a solution?

chrisjenx · 2016-01-06T13:14:42Z

Oh I upgraded gradle I think

Shusshu · 2016-01-06T13:18:31Z

I'm using the 2.10 and the android gradle 1.5.0

Shusshu · 2016-01-06T13:35:56Z

Ok I commented the module CatchParameterName and it worked

<module name="CatchParameterName">

ldimitroff · 2016-06-14T23:49:46Z

Hi, I'm having the same issues:

Gradle 2.10
Android Gradle Build Tools 2.1.2

Any ideas?
