Unable to add Groovy SDK to Intellij

Question

I am trying to add a Groovy SDK to an IntelliJ Gradle project, but I am failing to to add the Groovy SDK. I am using SDKMAN but also downloaded and extracted the Groovy zip from the groovy website.

In the past it always worked without any problems but not now anymore.

This is the path I am providing to IntelliJ /Users/dev/code/libs/groovy-2.4.10/ its what you get when you extract the groovy .zip file from the website.

Edit: As suggested I tried also other groovy version down to 2.4.6 all with the same result.

Answer 1

Groovy 2.4.10 is not recognized by intellij 2016.3.5 as well as intellij 2017.1 Groovy 2.4.8 works well with intellij 2017.1. I would guess that it works with intellij 2016.3.5 as well
