Root Cause

The Gradle plugin is not declared in the pluginManagement block or the plugin repository is missing.

generic

中文

Gradle 插件未在 pluginManagement 块中声明，或者缺少插件仓库。

Workarounds

  1. 95% success Add the Gradle Plugin Portal to pluginManagement repositories 
    pluginManagement { repositories { gradlePluginPortal() mavenCentral() } }
  2. 90% success Declare the plugin directly in build.gradle with correct version 
    plugins { id 'com.github.johnrengelman.shadow' version '8.1.1' }

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Adding the plugin to buildscript dependencies without using pluginManagement 80% fail

    Gradle 8+ requires plugins to be resolved via pluginManagement or direct plugin block with repository.

  2. Using an older version of the plugin that is not compatible with Gradle 8 75% fail

    Version incompatibility leads to resolution failure.
