I am getting this error while I try to import the gobblin distribution into my IDE , I have tried both inteliJ and eclipse , not able to find any luck. Below are the errors which I get when I try to import. In Eclipse the error is:

*org.gradle.tooling.BuildException: Could not run build action using Gradle distribution 'https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.3-bin.zip'.
*
For InteliJ
*Cause: startup failed: build file 'C:\Users\sayyad.ghazi\Desktop\gob\gobblin-master\gobblin-restli\gobblin-throttling-service\gobblin-throttling-service-api\build.gradle': 1: unexpected token: .. @ line 1, column 1. ../../api.gradle ^ 1 error*

This is because on Windows, Git can not create symbolic link file on non-admins mode. Symbolic link file is created as text file, containing a symbolic link.

Try the following command in Administrator Mode:

git clone -c core.symlinks=true <URL>

Then check the content of symbolic link file, such as "build.gradle" in your description. It should be the same as the content of "../../api.gradle", not just a symbolic link.

See git-for-windows-wiki-Symbolic-Links for more details.
