IDEA 2021.1 breaks Gradle sync for me.

In settings.gradle.kts the value of System.getProperty("user.dir") is now / instead of the project’s path.
Gradle command line works fine though 🤔

Hi, @Marc Knaup! Could you please check that Project SDK has correct JDK value?

[Marc Knaup]

All fine and valid. It worked minutes ago.

[Marc Knaup]

(the println thing)

[Yaroslav Chernyshev [JB]]

It broke right after IDEA upgrade or after some time?

[Marc Knaup]

The unresolved println was after some time.

The other issue is this one:
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-265203

[Marc Knaup]

Now I’m getting IDE errors with
com.intellij.psi.stubs.UpToDateStubIndexMismatch: PSI and index do not match..
Probably related. Have submitted through IDE.

[Marc Knaup]

Now it’s resolving println again 😮

I had some weird behavior as well, resolved by wiping stuff. a sort of nuclear action. my steps to fix, and now it is been some days and no more problems

close the project, File -> Close Project
quit idea
remove ~/Library/Application\ Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2021.1/
remove ~/Library/Caches/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2021.1/
restart idea

(I am on mac obviously)

[thanksforallthefish]

by weird behavior, I mean some libraries were resolved, some (most) not, a banner Kotlin not configured appeared

Original problem could also be related to https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-266067

[Marc Knaup]

The two issues I’ve posted are likely unrelated.
The original of this thread was about determining the project directory :)

[Marc Knaup]

The other issue with unresolved symbols was my other message.

I wish there was a single IDE update where I don’t run into new Gradle issues 😅

[Vampire]

Don't blame it to Gradle 😄

[Vampire]

The problem in my issues is also a problem of working directory

[Marc Knaup]

Didn’t do 😉

[Vampire]

The JBR dir is the working dir when generating accessors for precompiled script plugins and that doesn't work as then some directories cannot be created of course.

[Vampire]

That's why I thought it might be related

[Marc Knaup]

Yeah relying on the working directory wasn’t a good approach to begin with.

file(".") seems to be the most sensible solution.

[Vampire]

layout.projectDirectory

[Marc Knaup]

layout is unresolved.

[Vampire]

Where?

[Marc Knaup]

settings.gradle.kts

[Vampire]

Ah, that was a project service, sorry

[Vampire]

settingsDir then 🙂

[Marc Knaup]

That’s also interesting 🙂
