title: Could not create service of type ScriptPluginFactory
body: <p>My gradle has stopped working all of sudden. Current configuration is that:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Environment variable as GRADLE_HOME, pointing to Gradle-3.2.1</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Simply ran the command <strong>gradle</strong> in command prompt, and I get following message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>* What went wrong:
  Could not create service of type ScriptPluginFactory using BuildScopeServices.createScriptPluginFactory().
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Running with debug gives the following additional message:</p>
