Clean task not found in gradle

Question

I have a gradle build file and am not able to execute a build. I am working with old code and the code should be built with `1.0-milestone-7` version since other projects use this version. ``` apply plugin: 'idea' apply plugin: 'java' apply plugin: 'base' apply plugin: 'application' assert gradle.gradleVersion == '1.0-milestone-7' mainClassName = "my.ClassTest" buildscript { repositories { mavenLocal() mavenCentral() } } test { systemProperties = System.properties } c:\work\gradletest\> gradle clean FAILURE: Could not determine which tasks to execute. * What went wrong: Task 'clean' not found in root project 'gradletest'. * Try: Run gradle tasks to get a list of available tasks. ``` Anything I forgot?

Accepted Answer

Changing the filename to `build.gradle` solves the issue. Note that this is the case in `1.0-milestone-7`.
