gradle dependency unusable after refresh in intellij - java

as in the title, gradle dependency unusable after refreshing. I can see twitter4j is added in external libraries along with other gradle dependencies.
Gradle file:
compile group: 'org.twitter4j', name: 'twitter4j', version: '4.0.6', ext: 'pom'
java:
import twitter4j.*;
error:
cannot resolve symbol "twitter4j"

changing the gradle line to
compile 'org.twitter4j:twitter4j-core:4.0.6'
resolves this problem.

Cannot resolve symbol 'LastModifiedFileComparator'

I am writing a project that makes use of LastModifiedFileComparator and I tried import this
import org.apache.commons.io.comparator.LastModifiedFileComparator;
but it shows the error.
cannot resolve symbol 'LastModifiedFileComparator'
I have put in these dependencies
// In top-level gradle file
repositories {
...
mavenCentral()
}
// In app gradle file
implementation 'org.apache.commons:commons-io:1.3.2'
implementation files('commons-io-2.6.jar')
I solved the error by downloading commons-io-1.4.jar with my browser and then copy and paste it in the android project lib
This class is not present in the version 1.3.2
Upgrade the version to 1.4 or greater
implementation group: 'commons-io', name: 'commons-io', version: '2.6'

Intellij not including gradle dependency on classpath when running an app

IntelliJ is not including by logback-classic dependency on classpath when running the application from IDE (it is kotlin application, but it shouldn't matter). My gradle build contains a line:
compile group: 'ch.qos.logback', name: 'logback-classic', version: '1.+'
Dependency is correctly listed under "External Libraries" in IntelliJ.
When I try to manually reference a class that the dependency provides in the source code, compiler doesn't complain and it compiles the code successfully.
However, when I run the application I get ClassNotFoundException.
//This import is provided by logback-classic library
import org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder
...
// This compiles successfully, but will trigger ClassNotFoundException when run
val singleton = StaticLoggerBinder.getSingleton()
I included the code to list out the runtime classpath:
val cl = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader()
val urls = (cl as URLClassLoader).urLs
for (url in urls) {
System.out.println(url.file)
}
And the output, when run from IDE, doesn't include logback-classic. Sample output:

Fascinatingly, logback-core is in there while logback-classic is not (and logback-core is a transitive dependency of logback-classic).
I tried invalidating InteliJ cahces, rebuilding and restarting InteliJ. Compling from gradle and running the jar works fine. Any suggestions?
It seems this a bug in InteliJ for which I'll file a bug report. Including this answer with a workaround here for anyone who might encounter similar issue.
It seems that when there is a certain combinations of dependencies present on the classpath, then when you use gradle dependency like this
compile group: 'ch.qos.logback', name: 'logback-classic', version: '1.+'
it will not get included when run from the IDE. But if you include it like this:
compile group: 'ch.qos.logback', name: 'logback-classic', version: '1.1.+'
then it works. First example did work for a while, until I included more dependencies.

Gradle IntelliJ Idea

when i add slf4j-api-1.6.4.jar and slf4j-nop-1.6.4.jar in my libs folder it works fine but if i replaced them with gradle dependency then while executing the jar it gives me below error.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/slf4j/LoggerFactory
these are gradle dependencies for my project for above libraries.
compile group: 'org.slf4j', name: 'slf4j-api', version: '1.6.4'
compile group: 'org.slf4j', name: 'slf4j-nop', version: '1.6.4'
Make sure you've run Gradle Build, it may not have pulled your dependencies.
Make sure that you include these dependencies in the jar file (like this).

Intellij can't find commons.dbcp2

I have a problem which drives me insane, since it should work.
I have compiled dbcp dependency in my gradle file
compile group: 'org.apache.commons', name: 'commons-dbcp2', version: '2.1.1'
still, it can't resolve if i refer to it like this:
import org.apache.commons.dbcp2.BasicDataSource;
Any idea? (using intellij)
The problem was that the gradle project was unlinked, so the dependencies - even thought the dependencies was there in the external libraries, i had to re-link the gradle.

Gradle not downloading test dependency

I am looking to add a test dependency to my project which uses gradle. What I simply need is for gradle to download the dependency jar so I can import part of the package. What I need is the following package:
import org.springframework.security.test.*
So I edited my gradle file to contain
dependencies {
compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa')
compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-security')
compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf')
runtime('org.hsqldb:hsqldb')
testCompile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test')
testCompile('org.springframework.security:spring-security-test') // This is what I added to try and download the new dependency
}
I tried building the project after entering this. Unfortunately this didn't work and I cannot import org.springframework.security.test.* I then ran gradlew test which actually had some success and showed:
Download https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/springframework/security/spring-security-test/4.0.3.RELEASE/spring-security-test-4.0.3.RELEASE.pom
Download https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/springframework/security/spring-security-test/4.0.3.RELEASE/spring-security-test-4.0.3.RELEASE.jar
Though I have no idea where it downloaded to. Navigating to $HOME/.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/org.springframework.security I can see no sign of the downloaded package (and Idea doesn't recognise it in its external libraries). Running gradle build --refresh-dependencies didn't seem to work.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Closes SO question I could find
I had the same issue, it works if a specific version is included in the dependency, such as:
testCompile group: 'org.springframework.security', name: 'spring-security-test', version: '5.1.6.RELEASE'
