I am observing following error after updating gradle in the project to 7.X

A problem occurred evaluating script.
> Failed to apply plugin 'io.gitlab.arturbosch.detekt'.
   > Cannot run Project.afterEvaluate(Action) when the project is already evaluated.

The thing is I have multiple modules and I am applying detekt to all of them just by

allprojects {
  apply from: "$rootDir/detekt.gradle"
}

in the root project.
This was working so far. Is there a remedy for that or it needs to be fixed in Detekt gradle plugin?

So the problem is most likely related to using an external gradle file (the detekt.gradle).
Those files don’t really work well imho.

Please take a look at my comment here: https://github.com/detekt/detekt/issues/3490#issuecomment-895543558

I would advice you switch to using a precompiled script plugin or so.

thx, indeed precompiled script plugin seems to work just fine
