Answer 2

The solution is to update your gradle to version 8.2.1 or above. Here is a helpful article I used to diagnose the issue.

The JdkImageTransformDelegate task did not work with jdk 21+ since it expects a few different flags from the gradle, which is why switching back to jdk 17 fixes the issue as well. They fixed it in this commit. While you can just go back to jdk 17, if you already have a project using jdk 21, it is best practice to keep it the same, to guarantee the same functionality in your apps.
