As it's mentionned in the title, when I want to run my task for gradleit gives me an execution failed for task ':compileJava'. could not find tools.jar I checked for tools.jar in C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_17\lib and I found it, I added JRE (windows -> preferences -> java -> Add JRE and apply it). But the probelm stills the same.

  • Thank you Brian, I already checked this post but I still have the issue with compileJava, Execution failed for task :compileJava. I added Jdk to my System variable (new variable and path too) and I added compile files("${System.properties['java.home']}/../lib/tools.jar") to my gradle.build but the problem stills the same. Regards. – zackzulg Mar 29 '16 at 08:53

I had the same error message with the eclipse gradle plugin, and needed to set my JDK in the gradle arguments.
