Can't run gradlew on Windows Vista for Forge 1.8

Hello,

 

I'm trying to write Minecraft mods. I have Java 8, installed Eclipse and downloaded Forge1.8 from here:

http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.8-11.14.1.1341/forge-1.8-11.14.1.1341-src.zip

I unzipped it into directory: C:\Program Files\Java\Forge-1.8

 

When I try to run command "gradlew setupDecompWorspace eclipse" after a while I get the following error message:

 

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

 

* What went wrong:

Failed to notify build listener.

 

I tried to run with --debug option and see exception:

 

15:34:55.299 [DEBUG] [org.gradle.cache.internal.DefaultFileLockManager] Waiting

to acquire shared lock on no_buildscript class cache for build file 'C:\Program

Files\Java\Forge-1.8\build.gradle' (C:\Users\Vlad\.gradle\caches\2.0\scripts\bui

ld_68l21h7eg42t9lul0p4b2mmvma\ProjectScript\no_buildscript).

lusively(Native Method)

15:34:55.423 [ERROR] [system.err]      at java.io.File.createNewFile(Unknown So

urce)

 

Do you know what might be wrong?

 

Thank you,

 

Vlad

Why are you putting your mod workspace in your java folder......

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

Really, why I did I do that? Moved to my personal folder and it worked. Thank you LexManos.
