Cannot build project

[einmeterhecht]

gradle always fails with the following message:

> Task :1.19.4:remapJar FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':1.19.4:remapJar'.
> A failure occurred while executing net.fabricmc.loom.task.RemapJarTask$RemapAction
   > Failed to remap, java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot nest jars into none mod jar citresewn-1.1.3+1.19.4.jar

When running with --info, it showed the following in the log:

> Task :1.19.4:compileJava NO-SOURCE

Although it is odd that it wont build with pure gradle, any reason you're not using idea to run the tasks?

[einmeterhecht]

Good point, thank you for your help! It didn't work right away last time so I gave up on IDEA too early - sadly still getting the same error in IDEA as with CLI gradle...

[einmeterhecht]

Tried it again and this time it worked... Whyever Thank you very much!

Ok, I just saw it works with the 1.20.1 version but not the 1.19.4 one...

Ok, I just saw it works with the 1.20.1 version but not the 1.19.4 one...

Are you using the task to properly switch to 1.19.4?

[einmeterhecht]

That was it - thanks a lot for pointing me to this stupid mistake

Note to anyone coming around here having the same issue in the future:

• Do not use the Tasks from the root project - use the ones in the folders (at the time of writing "1.19.4" and "1.20.1")
• Use the "stonecutter/Set active version to ..." task before building
