This works for me too, and I think this is the easiest way to make it work. However if you want to do it better with Java9, you can find another tutorials from different developers. But changing to Java8 is definitely the fastest and easiest for beginner.

Go to Gradle - wrapper - gradle-wrapper.properties change the Url distribution link to this for example, distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.3.1-all.zip We must update the gradle version to the most recent one.
