gradle not working on Bash on Ubuntu on Windows

[JesseBoulard]

Trying to run gradle on bash on Ubuntu on Windows has been a nightmare, wasting dozens of hours trying to find a workaround. I just reinstalled BoUoW today and installed java and gradle with sdkman. Here's the error with stacktrace:

jesse@DESKTOP-LNO2BVT:~/.sdkman/candidates/gradle/current/bin$ gradle init --stacktrace

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong:
  Could not determine a usable local IP for this machine.

• Try:
  Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

• Exception is:
  java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not determine a usable local IP for this machine.

@JesseBoulard - #850 or gradle/gradle#773?

[JesseBoulard]

I read both of those and they don't seem to apply to me. I'm not a Windows insider. I just have the latest updated version of Windows. If I became a Windows insider would that solve my problem?

@JesseBoulard - The lastest comment #850 (comment) mentioned about Creator's update and after then WSL update, not a insider preview version but a public release, windows 10 version 1703. The lastest build number of 1703 is 15063; You can see it using ver comand in cmd.exe window like Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.15063] and this information was asked in template when you opened this issue.

If you be using 1703, in other words Creator's update,... Hmm.... you look like to consider other thins like Anti-Virus or something....

[JesseBoulard]

Thanks a lot, I guess I was so ignorant about this that I assumed Windows automatically updated. I'm running build 14393. Downloading upgrade now. So do you think that will fix the problem?

@JesseBoulard - 14393 is the lastes build number of version 1607 (Redstone1), not version 1703 (Redstore 2). Hmm....

I think.... https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3159635/windows-10-update-assistant may help you to update from Redstone1 to Redston2.
