Gradle corrupt after add this plugin

[shoulder0902]

As below:

org.gradle.api.internal.project.DefaultProject_Decorated cannot be cast to org.gradle.api.initialization.Settings
org.gradle.api.internal.project.DefaultProject_Decorated cannot be cast to org.gradle.api.initialization.Settings

Gradle's dependency cache may be corrupt (this sometimes occurs after a network connection timeout.)

Re-download dependencies and sync project (requires network)
The state of a Gradle build process (daemon) may be corrupt. Stopping all Gradle daemons may solve this problem.

Stop Gradle build processes (requires restart)
Your project may be using a third-party plugin which is not compatible with the other plugins in the project or the version of Gradle requested by the project.

In the case of corrupt Gradle processes, you can also try closing the IDE and then killing all Java processes.

I tried the methods mentioned above:

1. Re-download dependencies and sync project
2. Stop Gradle build processes
   And:
3. kill Gradle daemon, delete the Gradle caches
4. I use the Gradle 8+, so I create a new project with basic configured Gradle 7.4.2 and add this plugin.

The problem appeared again.

Same problem for me with gradle 8.0.1

[jbartok]

The plugin is compatible with Gradle 7.6 or newer only.
What do you mean by I use the Gradle 8+, so I create a new project with basic configured Gradle 7.4.2 and add this plugin.? If you use Gradle 7.4.2, then it's expected to fail.
If you are using Gradle 8+, pls. create an issue with a reproducer on the gradle/gradle repo.
Or re-open this issue, but provide a bit more info, so I can reproduce the problem.

I am having the same issue

android_gradle_plugin = 8.0.0
gradleversion = 8.1

following is my root build.gradle.kts file

plugins {
    alias(libs.plugins.dependencyanalysis)
    id("org.gradle.toolchains.foojay-resolver-convention") version "0.5.0"

}

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        google()
        gradlePluginPortal()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath(libs.android.gradle.plugin)
        classpath(libs.kotlin.gradle.plugin)
        classpath(libs.aboutlibraries.plugin)
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

Note : I maybe missing something obvious here.
Thanks in advance.
