In my case, I believe the error was due to an incomplete build.gradle.

Before

dependencies {
    compile group: 'org.mapstruct', name: 'mapstruct-processor', version: '1.2.0.Final'
}

After

apply plugin: 'net.ltgt.apt'

dependencies {
    compile group: 'org.mapstruct', name: 'mapstruct-processor', version: '1.2.0.Final'
    compile group: 'org.mapstruct', name: 'mapstruct-jdk8', version: '1.2.0.Final'
    apt 'org.mapstruct:mapstruct-processor:1.2.0.Final'
}


buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        maven {
            url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
        }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath("net.ltgt.gradle:gradle-apt-plugin:0.9")
    }
}

Ensure you have configured your build.gradle properly, as described in the docs.
