Forgive this newbie - I'm creating the simplest kotless-ktor web app, but my gradle deploy task is failing with the error "The system cannot find the path specified.". Is there any way of identifying which file it can't find?

Skipping task ':classes' as it has no actions.
:classes (Thread[Daemon worker,5,main]) completed. Took 0.0 secs.
:shadowJar (Thread[Daemon worker,5,main]) started.

BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 6s

So the failure is in the "deploy" block. Do I need to tell gradle where the `aws`and `sam`applications are installed?

I've been studying the kotless source code. I don't think terraform has been downloaded; there's no kotless-bin folder in my project's build folder.

Almost certainly because terraform has not been downloaded... Running the gradle deploy task in IntelliJ Run/Debug configuration gives the following error:
> Task :generate
WARN: Failed to initialize native filesystem for Windows
java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not find installation home path. Please make sure bin/idea.properties is present in the installation directory.

How do you run Gradle? Can you try to run from console ./gradlew deploy? :)

[v79]

I get the same error message from gradlew deploy but only the first time I run it... after that, gradlew assumes that the download_terraform task is up-to-date

I'm normally a command-line guy 🙂

Very strange. To tell the truth I’ve never tested it on Windows, but well... looks like it the time :) Can you DM me a zip with code?

[v79]

I've re-installed IntelliJ after deleting some files and folders. Still isn't working, still the same error about the installation home path.
