Permission denied on gradlew

[mcavey-arch]

Hi, im attempting to get Frogbot PR scanning working on a Java project in my github organisation - but whilst it detects it is gradlew that is needed, it is failing with permission issues. I have tried using chmod in a previous step to no effect.

Are there any parameters on the frogbot action that are related to this?

Any assistance would be appreciated.

I am also experiencing this exact issue on my gradle project.

@stephen-BT Got to the bottom of this - gradlew isnt marked as executable in git.

Resolved with:

git update-index --chmod=+x gradlew
git ls-files --stage (lists all the files - gradlew should now be 00755 rather than 00754)
git add gradlew
git commit -m "Make gradlew 0755 (executable)"

Had to do this through the command line as GitHub desktop did not recognise the change.

This is now working for me.
