Gradle cannot build: constructor Book in class Book cannot be applied to given types

I am new to java and Spark, maybe I did something wrong. But, I am running a simple thing, and it throws an error:

`zorkyy:spark-basic-structure zorkyy$ gradle build

How can it be possible? Am I doing something wrong? I am os OS X 11 and using Gradle 5.1 and Java 1.8

I met the same problem. I think it's because Gradle doesn't deal with its dependencies. Solution: I run the file gradlew.bat in the root directory first, then build again, run successfully!
