Hi, I already configured java.home to JDK 16.0.2, then I tried setting java.import.gradle.java.home to JDK 16.0.2, and also restarted vscode, but it still returned with the same error.

@orange2222222222 Could you try to set the following property?

"java.configuration.runtimes": [

        {
            "name": "JavaSE-16",
            "path": "C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk-16.0.2",
            "default": true
        }
]

The issue is reproducible if you’re using JDK < 16 for running the Gradle daemon

@0dinD I have seen it, but it is another issue. I can’t reproduce the following error:

Could not fetch model of type ‘GradleProject’ using Gradle distribution…

This error can be caused by an invalid gradle distribution in ~/.cache/tooling or ~/.gradle/wrapper/dists
