I backed a docker image with gradle, but whenever the CI run

./gradlew build

it keeps downloading the distro again, the structure seems to be fine

$ cd ${GRADLE_USER_HOME}
$ find . | sed -e "s/[^-][^\/]*\// |/g" -e "s/|\([^ ]\)/|-\1/"
.
 |-gradle.properties
 |-init.d
 | |-elara.nexus.init.gradle.kts
 |-wrapper
 | |-dists
 | | |-gradle-8.12.1-bin
 | | | |-eumc4uhoysa37zql93vfjkxy0
 | | | | |-gradle-8.12.1
 | | | | | |-init.d
 | | | | | | |-readme.txt
 | | | | | |-bin
 | | | | | | |-gradle.bat
 | | | | | | |-gradle
 | | | | | |-NOTICE
 | | | | | |-LICENSE

 | | | | | | |-gradle-base-services-groovy-8.12.1.jar
 | | | | | | |-gradle-base-asm-8.12.1.jar

I also see in the logs

./gradlew

deletes the right directory

$ ./gradlew build
Downloading <https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-8.12.1-bin.zip>
.............10%.............20%.............30%.............40%.............50%.............60%.............70%.............80%.............90%.............100%
Deleting directory /home/user/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-8.12.1-bin/eumc4uhoysa37zql93vfjkxy0/gradle-8.12.1

any idea why?

Any reason for using

./gradlew

vs.

gradle

? (fwiw, I use the https://hub.docker.com/_/gradle image in CI with

gradle

rather than

./gradlew

; and to make sure I use the same version, I run

gradle wrapper

and check whether it modified the

gradle/wrapper/

files)

If the

gradle-8.12.1-bin.zip.ok

is missing, it is assumed the provisioning failed mit-unzip so the archive is got freshly, old try deleted, and freshly unzipped

the

zip.ok

file was indeed the culprit
