NullPointerException during :generatePomFileForMavenJavaPublication #163
Description
My Gradle project is giving a NullPointerException during the artifactoryDeploy task. I have the same exact Gradle file working on several other projects, so I'm confused as to what could be wrong.
The error indicates that it can't access pom-default.xml under /build/publications. That file is there, though it's empty.
The stacktrace output is below with all the noise stripped out:
org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskExecutionException: Execution failed for task ':AuthenticationService:generatePomFileForMavenJavaPublication'.
[stack removed for brevity]
Caused by: org.gradle.api.UncheckedIOException: Could not write to file 'C:\Users\JCN\IdeaProjects\MyProject\AuthenticationService\build\publications\mavenJava\pom-default.xm l'.
