I'm trying to load and use our company's standard ivysettings file for use with Gradle and seem to be running into problems with a chain resolver.

I'm using a trivial build:

import org.apache.ivy.core.settings.IvySettings

apply plugin: 'java'

IvySettings ivySettings = new IvySettings();
ivySettings.load(new File("ivysettings.xml"));

repositories {
add(ivySettings.getResolver('public')) // works!
//add(ivySettings.getDefaultResolver()) // fails!
}

dependencies {
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.11'
}

and a trivial ivysettings.xml:

<ivysettings>

<property name="ivy.shared.default.root" value="${ivy.default.ivy.user.dir}/shared" override="false" />
<property name="ivy.shared.default.ivy.pattern" value="[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[type]s/[artifact].[ext]" override="false" />
<property name="ivy.shared.default.artifact.pattern" value="[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[type]s/[artifact].[ext]" override="false" />

<settings defaultResolver="default" />

<resolvers>

<filesystem name="shared">
<ivy pattern="${ivy.shared.default.root}/${ivy.shared.default.ivy.pattern}" />
<artifact pattern="${ivy.shared.default.root}/${ivy.shared.default.artifact.pattern}" />
</filesystem>

<ibiblio name="public" m2compatible="true" />

<chain name="default">
<resolver ref="shared" />
<resolver ref="public" />
</chain>

</resolvers>

</ivysettings>

When I use just the shared or the public repository things work as expected. However, when I use the chain repository, I get a failed build

> Building > :compileTestJava > Resolving dependencies ':testCompile'org.gradle.listener.ListenerNotificationException:
Failed to notify output event listener.

The full output and stack trace is available at [1]https://gist.github.com/anonymous/502....

I'm running Windows 7 (32-bit), Java 7, Gradle 1.4.

This is a blocker for my company's adoption of Gradle.

Thanks,
Rich
