Gradle JDK Mismatching Issue in IntelliJ IDEA

I have a Gradle project written in Java. When I build it from command line, it works. But when running the test cases in IntelliJ IDEA, I get the following error:

Since it works in command line, I’m pretty sure it’s caused by some configuration in IDEA.

The solution is here.

When I go to “Preferences -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Gradle”, I find the JDK used in the “Gradle JVM” field is NOT the one I’m using in the command line(yes, I installed multiple JDKs on my computer). Change it to the same one as the command line and run the unit test again, it works now.

Another field “Use Gradle from” in the same UI is used to set the Gradle version for the current project, which is also important when you project needs specific version of Gradle to build.

Today I encountered a similar issue again when running some unit tests in IntelliJ IDEA. It reported the following error, however when I ran the same unit tests in command line everything worked.

The root cause is similar but a little different, I was using the following configuration which caused error:

1
2
Project JDK version: 1.8 (java version "1.8.201")
Gradle JVM: Default JDK (java version "1.8.201")

After I updated the configuartion to the following content, everything worked.

1
2
Project JDK version: 1.8 (java version "1.8.201")
Gradle JVM: 1.8 (java version "1.8.201")

I thought “1.8 (java version ‘1.8.201’)” and “Default JDK (java version ‘1.8.201’)” were the same thing, but they are not. That is the lession I learned.
