Could not find method compile() for arguments Gradle

Question

Looked around for this solution for much too long now, and I\'m not sure if I missed it or just misstyped something, but my Gradle script will not compile. I am migrating to

Answer 1

It should be exclude module: 'net.milkbowl:vault:1.2.27'(add module:) as explained in documentation for DependencyHandler linked from http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/javadoc/org/gradle/api/Project.html#dependencies(groovy.lang.Closure) because ModuleDependency.exclude(java.util.Map) method is used.

Answer 2

In my case, all the compile statements has somehow arranged in a single line. separating them in individual lines has fixed the issue.
