The gradle process fails when I tried to build or sync my Forge mod written in Kotlin with IntelliJ The way to find any output is from the logs:

I am on the latest version of ubuntu, and have tried deleting the .gradle folder, invalidating caches, and re-downloading the project.

Thank You for helping

I got it fixed, I had my system java version set to java 17, rather than java 8. after I changed the alternate and deleted my .gradle folder it worked
