after upgrading from Kotlin 1.6.10 to 1.6.20, I'm suddenly hitting this error in my KMM project. Any idea why? Upgrading to 1.6.21 or 1.7.0 doesn't help:

Task 'runCommonizer' not found in project ':android'

What’s the context here? Where do you see that message?

it happens when I Gradle sync in Android Studio. The only output in the Build pane is:

Task 'runCommonizer' not found in project ':android'.

* Try:
> Run gradle tasks to get a list of available tasks.
> Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.
> Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Exception is:
org.gradle.execution.TaskSelectionException: Task 'runCommonizer' not found in project ':android'.
	at org.gradle.execution.DefaultTaskSelector.getSelection(DefaultTaskSelector.java:113)
	at org.gradle.execution.DefaultTaskSelector.getSelection(DefaultTaskSelector.java:78)
	at org.gradle.execution.CompositeAwareTaskSelector.getSelection(CompositeAwareTaskSelector.java:94)
...

I can run anything through gradlew if it would give you needed detail (I've just personally never found --debug, etc. helps me debug issues)

my iOS app builds through the KMM embedAndSignAppleFrameworkForXcode Gradle task and doesn't have a problem

[Paul Woitaschek]

Did you try with intellij?

[Travis Reitter]

just tried with the latest version of IntelliJ CE and it seems its Android support isn't compatible with my project (which I've been developing with Android Studio 2021.1.1 patch 3)

[Travis Reitter]

I guess I can upgrade AS and try again. I've been putting it off until I get my next release out but it should be fairly safe

[Travis Reitter]

maybe I shouldn't have said that because now the KMM plugin blows up on Android Studio start with the new version 😕

[Paul Woitaschek]

Yeah for ij you need to downgrade agp

[Travis Reitter]

after uninstalling and re-installing the KMM plugin the plugin issue and my original runCommonizer issue are both fixed 🙂

[Travis Reitter]

not sure what the original issue was. Maybe upgrading the IDE was necessary

[Paul Woitaschek]

Yeah that is often time a fix: go from stable to canary to stable. Fixes most of the ide bugs 🙃

[Sebastian Sellmair [JB]]

Does somebody have a sample project for this one? Or knows which IDE reproduced this?

[Sebastian Sellmair [JB]]

I think a simple workaround for older IDEs would be

tasks.register("runCommonizer") {
    dependsOn(tasks.getByName("commonize"))
}

[Sebastian Sellmair [JB]]

But this should work for you! Very strange to see: The runCommonizer task name (old) was never removed and is kept in KGP for compatibility ./

[Travis Reitter]

I wasn't able to narrow down exactly what my issue was

[Travis Reitter]

I always try to avoid upgrading to a less-stable track, even temporarily, where I can 🙂

[Travis Reitter]

then again, I've rebased my entire project on KMM which is self-declared as "alpha". Definitely the most solid "alpha" I've ever seen though!

This sounds very reasonable to me blob smile happy
Lets just be glad that the issue seems to be not affecting you anymore and I will be warned if I ever see somebody hitting this again!
