Answer 1

I faced the same problem in IntelliJ while I was working on a gradle-jbehave project. My problem was I had created the project using commandline and had left the command prompt window open. The issue disappeared when I closed all the open command prompt windows, ie:

1. I opened cmd.exe
2. created a mvn project using "mvn archetype:generate -Dfilter=org.jbehave:jbehave"
3. then switching to the project root via cmd.exe "mvn idea:idea"
4. changed it to a gradle project by "gradle init"
5. Opened this project in intelliJ, everything looked good until I tried to build it via terminal
6. I closed the cmd.exe I opened in step1, and voila, everything started to work fine.
