How to fix all files excluded from the project because of "Failed to calculate the value of task ':compileJava'" error?

Yann Cebron

Thank you for the answer.

Unfortunately, zero-effect... 

The error has not changed:

Failed to calculate the value of task ':compileJava' property 'javaCompiler'.

No matching toolchains found for requested specification: {languageVersion=11, vendor=any, implementation=vendor-specific}.

According to error message, the language version 11 still presents somewhere in settings...

If you need to investigate please feel free to download repository with my plugin - currently there is no my own code there.

I checked out your repository as-is and was able to import it without any problems and run the plugin in the sandbox.

I would suggest to create a copy of your project directory and remove the hidden `.idea` directory from it and then use _File | New | Project from Existing Sources" pointing at that directory. It looks like something with the IDE configuration files might be messed up, and this would recreate them from scratch.

Re recreating of `.idea` directory was fixed the excluding of all files from the project, but the `Failed to calculate the value of task ':compileJava' property 'javaCompiler'.` error still presents. What else I need to check to fix this issue? Maybe `build.gradle.kts`? There is

kotlin {
  jvmToolchain(11)
}

lines in this file.

I would delete the build directory. I found on a few occasions that cached/previously compiled data would mess up the gradle build until the build directory is deleted. It will be automatically created on the next gradle build action.

Thank you for the answer. 

Unfortunately, the deleting of the build directory has not changed anything.

I still have

Failed to calculate the value of task ':compileJava' property 'javaCompiler'.
No matching toolchains found for requested specification: {languageVersion=11, vendor=any, implementation=vendor-specific}.

error.

please try

kotlin {
  jvmToolchain(17)
}

Yann Cebron

This is the solution. 

Thank you for the support!

Where to try 

kotlin {
  jvmToolchain(17)
}

?

safdafa In your Gradle build.gradle.kts file.
