Got this error:

- Task `:dependencies` of type `org.gradle.api.tasks.diagnostics.DependencyReportTask`: cannot serialize object of type 'org.gradle.api.artifacts.Configuration' as these are not supported with the configuration cache.

@gradle/configuration-cache is it a duplicate of #12871?

[eskatos]

The dependencies task is not supported yet with the configuration cache enabled. Both issues are different failures that can happen with that task. It would be better to have a single issue about supporting the dependencies task.

Should this be reopened?

#12871 was resolved as of Gradle 7.5, but in 7.5.1 the DependencyReportTask still does not use the new APIs, and still reports configuration cache problems, due to use of getProject() and trying to serialize Configuration.

So now this issue seems to be relevant again, because the dependencies report now has to be updated to use the new APIs.

This issue happens with Gradle 7.5.1, should this be opened or create a new bug report?
this is a blocker to upgrading Gradle enterprise V 3.11.4

Apparently, I chose the duplicated issue poorly. The correct one is #17470, and it was fixed only in 7.6.
