An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'com.palantir.git-version', version: '0.12.2']

[fraensn]

What happened?

I get following error message when executing gradle:

• What went wrong: An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'com.palantir.git-version', version: '0.12.2']

Failed to apply plugin [id 'com.palantir.git-version'] java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)

In our build.gradle following line has been present: plugins { id 'com.palantir.git-version' version '0.12.2' }

When I change to version '0.12.1' everything works fine. For my collegues version '0.12.2' works, but we haven't found any misconfiguration.

I am using following configuration:

Gradle 6.0

Build time: 2019-11-08 18:12:12 UTC Revision: 0a5b531749138f2f983f7c888fa7790bfc52d88a

Kotlin: 1.3.50 Groovy: 2.5.8 Ant: Apache Ant(TM) version 1.10.7 compiled on September 1 2019 JVM: 1.8.0_141 (Oracle Corporation 25.141-b15) OS: Windows 10 10.0 amd64

git version 2.23.0.windows.1.

Any ideas, how I can resolve this issue or at least find the root cause? Tanks in advance!

Can you provide a stacktrace by running ./gradlew -s

[fraensn]

Executing gradlew -s outputs:

Starting a Gradle Daemon (subsequent builds will be faster)

Ok, I ran in the same problem on another environment - this time it is Ubuntu 16.04.6

Any hints or assumptions what could be the reason?

[jchharris]

It could be related to this bug in JGIT: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=548682

[oridool]

Any news on that issue? happened to me as well

[mohanidragel]

Still an issue. Any timeline on resolution?

[Klaonis]

Hi, I had the same problem with version: '0.12.3', and the Bug JGIT pointed by jchharris contains a comment which describes a fix based on the "HOME" environment variable.

Solution

1. Create a new environment variable named "HOME", with the path to your user folder (e.g C:\users\foo).
2. Then restart Android Studio and... voilà, it works.
