OS is Ubuntu 14.10 64-bit running on vagrant.

Hi @kensipe, could you provide some guidance here? Thanks!

[kensipe]

@F21 do you have internet connectivity when you attempt this? obviously there is a download need. This is a one time download. Need internet connectivity extends to the VM you are running the build from.

This issue really isn't an HDFS issue. The issue is getting gradle wrapper to work. It requires internet connectivity to the vm and it may require a proxy configuration. details for that are: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5991194/gradle-proxy-configuration

that said I would be happy to help you debug this issue if you are not able to get past it with the information provided.

@kensipe Yes, the VM has internet access. I was able to install things through apt-get and use wget fine.

Just tried it and it appears to be downloading and building fine. The difference is that I am now using Oracle's Java installed using the webup8 ppa on ubuntu instead of OpenJDK,

I had the same issue when tried to build qt app for android. This command helped for me:

sudo update-ca-certificates -f

Solved by replacing https for http:
https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.4-bin.zip
to
http://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.4-bin.zip

[amranial]

Where did you replace it please ?

[khalchev91]

Change it in the gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties and you should be good to go
