Upgrading Gradle from 6.6.1 to 6.8 and JDK from 1.8 to 14 solved the problem: https://scans.gradle.com/s/luo6oqxcbvfq2

Extracted from: https://detekt.github.io/detekt/gradle.html

plugins {
    id "io.gitlab.arturbosch.detekt" version "1.14.1"
}

repositories {
    jcenter() // jcenter is needed <https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.html/issues/81>
}

The comment is important here.

Extracted from the same documentation, if you want to use jcenter as least as possible (as me):

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    jcenter {
        content {
            // just allow to include kotlinx projects
            // detekt needs 'kotlinx-html' for the html report
            includeGroup("org.jetbrains.kotlinx")
        }
    }
}

But I am using jcenter. And didn’t change anything in the project settings, except for the Gradle version and JDK to make it work

[Brais Gabin]

That’s strange. I use gradle 6.6.1 and JDK 8
