Execution failed for task ':deployFrcCppRoborio' Error

[Sid2001]

Hello,
I have been messing with our robot and have been getting this error. It was initially a gradleRio error that I fixed. But now I get this error. Help would be very greatly appreciated.

Task :deployFrcCppRoborio FAILED

This is saying nothing was actually compiled, so it found no program to actually deploy. Are you trying just a base template, or did you attempt to change anything in the build. If you attempted to move files, or don’t have any cpp files at all, that issue will occur. If you can post your build.gradle file, or a link to your entire project that would help.

Here is the build.gradle

// Team number is loaded either from the .wpilib/wpilib_preferences.json
// or from command line. If not found an exception will be thrown.
// You can use getTeamOrDefault(team) instead of getTeamNumber if you
// want to store a team number in this file.
team = frc.getTeamNumber()
}
}
artifacts {
frcNativeArtifact(‘frcCpp’) {

Ok. So are all your source files in src/main/cpp. If your source files are in another folder, or theyre c files, not c++, that issue will occur.
