Problem description

Could not determine java version from '11.0.10' (after running ./gradlew appRunWar command)

Steps to reproduce the problem

1. I followed this documentation https://github.com/getodk/aggregate to install ODK Aggregate on a private server. Everything was fine until this section https://github.com/getodk/aggregate#building-and-running-the-project.

2. I ran ./gradlew appRunWar command inside the aggregate folder and the following error appeared.

user@ip:~/aggregate$ ./gradlew appRunWar

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Could not determine java version from '11.0.10'.

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

3. I found this link https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54358107/gradle-could-not-determine-java-version-from-11-0-2 then I changed the gradle distribution url to version 5.4.1

user@ip:~/aggregate$ cd gradle/
user@ip:~/aggregate/gradle$ ls
wrapper
user@ip:~/aggregate/gradle$ cd wrapper/
user@ip:~/aggregate/gradle/wrapper$ ls
gradle-wrapper.jar  gradle-wrapper.properties
user@ip:~/aggregate/gradle/wrapper$ sudo nano gradle-wrapper.properties

Before (original from ODK Aggregate repository):

distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.5.1-all.zip

After:

distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.4.1-all.zip

4. I ran again ./gradlew appRunWar command then another error (A problem occurred configuring root project 'aggregate'.) appeared.

user@ip:~/aggregate$ ./gradlew appRunWar

Welcome to Gradle 5.4.1!

Here are the highlights of this release:
 - Run builds with JDK12
 - New API for Incremental Tasks
 - Updates to native projects, including Swift 5 support

For more details see https://docs.gradle.org/5.4.1/release-notes.html

Starting a Gradle Daemon (subsequent builds will be faster)

Expected behavior

The ODK Aggregate server is running on <my_private_ip_address>:8080.

Other information

I have a hypothesis (ODK Aggregate server must use Java version 8 to run). Is it correct?
