Hi James,

When reviewing instructions and discussions, be careful to distinguish
between gradle and gradlew.

There are various forms of the init-gradle-wrapper script,
targeting windows and unix environments.

Ofbiz is built using the gradle wrapper script, gradlew. This script is not
distributed with ofbiz releases which means it needs to be downloaded,
along with its associated jar file.

If you take a look at the contents of init-gradle-wrapper.bat you should
see that it calls a powershell script in ./gradle/init-gradle-wrapp.ps1.
Looking at this script I see it will create a new directory,
gradle/wrapper, and download a jar file gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar
from
https://github.com/gradle/gradle/raw/v6.5.1/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar
.

Looking at the powershell, it is not clear to me which line is responsible
for creating ./gradlew.

What is the content of your ./gradle directory?

Perhaps there are some problems running powershell on your system? If so,
could you run the ./gradle/init-gradle-wrapper.sh script from git-bash
instead?
