Exception java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.codehaus.groovy.reflection.ReflectionCache when running gradlew.bat file

Question

I am trying to run a gradlew.bat file via cmd and am running into the error:

Could not initialize class org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerHelper
> Exception java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.codehaus.groovy.reflection.ReflectionCache [in thread "Daemon worker"]

I tried following various solutions from this post to no avail. I tried changing the value in gradle-wrapper.properties from

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.1-bin.zip

to

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.3-bin.zip

and ran again but was met with:

A problem occurred configuring root project 'nexus-deploy'.
> Could not open cp_proj remapped class cache for s5e1jtxdcnwfq13zlj7qke7c

I then tried removing the scripts + scripts-remapped folders from the gradle cache but that did nothing as well. Finally, I tried running

./gradlew clean

but got

   * What went wrong:
   A problem occurred configuring root project 'nexus-deploy'.
   Could not open cp_proj remapped class cache for s5e1jtxdcnwfq13zlj7qke7c

I'm not sure what is going wrong and don't know what else to try. I am on java version "1.8.0_341" and Gradle 7.5.1.

Just switched my java version to jdk 8 & worked for my case. Try Changing your jdk versions and find out which works the best. In my case, while using FVM(flutter version manager) , after a week I found that using jdk 8 was working for the older project I was working on despite newer java version worked for my newer projects but not for older projects.

Maybe has another Java version in your computer. Gradle compatible with java reference. Upgrade gradle version to the supported Java version in your computer.
