My problem is that whenever I open the project lots of code is red and I get "Error: Could not find or load main class dev.yasan.wallpapers.ApplicationKt
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: dev.yasan.wallpapers.ApplicationKt" Error.

I have not found a proper fix yet. I just have to rebuild the project like 10+ times and it gets fixed randomly. How do I fix this? its really annoying

[edrd]

It may be an issue with compile/runtime dependencies. Can you paste your build file here?

[YASAN]

Looks like it since usually deleting the build folder & reopening it fixes the issue.

my build file? Should I just zip the build folder and send it? or?

[YASAN]

Also it looks like deleting the build folder from IDEA itself wont help. I have to reopen IDEA + Delete build folder to make it fix the issue.

[edrd]

Just paste your build.gradle or pom.xml here

[ddaypunk]

Have you tried removing the project and the adding it again?

Definitely sounds like a version mismatch somewhere.

@ddaypunk I think I did before but will try again, it just looks like the first build doesn't work right so I have to delete the build folder to force it to build stuff again

[ddaypunk]

I feel as though I've had the same issue with Gradle

[ddaypunk]

I think the file looks okay. Are you using gradle wrapper @YASAN ?

[YASAN]

@ddaypunk I just have a gradle-wrapper.jar which I cannot open on IDEA and a gradle-wrapper.properties which just has some basic variables in it. Never manually edited them.

[ddaypunk]

🤔

[ddaypunk]

What ide are you in? IntelliJ?

[YASAN]

Yes IntelliJ IDEA. And I used the Ktor plugin to create the project.

[YASAN]

Although I am probably moving to Spring Boot with Kotlin since I can barely find any useful Ktor tutorials and its hard to figure these stuff out as an Android dev 😕

[edrd]

@YASAN when you run a task from the command line, for example ./gradlew build, does it work?

[YASAN]

@edrd it looks like it no longer happens so I cannot really test it via terminal. It probably is fixed due to me moving the project files into another folder & importing it as a new project.
