The action failed during the "Checking build files..." step because a required build file was missing: - Missing file: build.gradle.kts The script explicitly checks for required Gradle build files and exits with code 1 if any are absent. At line 195, it reports ✗ build.gradle.kts missing, leading to the failure (exit code 1).
Below is a summary of compliance checks for this PR:
Security Compliance
⚪
Sensitive information exposure
Description: Uploading the entire .gradle/ and build/ directories as artifacts can unintentionally expose sensitive data such as caches, environment-derived paths, logs, or credentials written by plugins to CI logs/artifacts; restrict or scrub contents before upload. build.yml [71-79]
Description: Installing 7-Zip via Chocolatey without checksum or signature verification relies on external package trust and could allow supply-chain tampering; prefer pinned versions with checksum verification or trusted runners. build.yml [26-30]
Description: The markdown link checker ignores https://bearsampp.com links entirely, which could mask defaced or malicious link changes in documentation; avoid blanket ignores or narrow the pattern to known flakey endpoints instead. markdown-link-check-config.json [4-8]
Objective: To create a detailed and reliable record of critical system actions for security analysis and compliance.
Status: Limited Auditing: The workflow adds build, validation, and release steps but does not implement audit logging of critical actions beyond standard CI logs, which may be acceptable for CI but does not meet explicit audit trail requirements.
Generic: Robust Error Handling and Edge Case Management
Objective: Ensure comprehensive error handling that provides meaningful context and graceful degradation
Status: Error Handling Gaps: Several steps rely on default action failure without contextual error handling or validation of edge cases (e.g., downloads, Gradle tasks), which may be acceptable for CI but lacks explicit, contextual error management.
Objective: To ensure logs are useful for debugging and auditing without exposing sensitive information like PII, PHI, or cardholder data.
Status: Potential Secret Exposure: The workflow prints environment-derived paths and build details and uploads logs; while no secrets are explicitly echoed, the use of Gradle with --stacktrace and uploaded .gradle/build logs could inadvertently contain sensitive data depending on tasks.
Generic: Security-First Input Validation and Data Handling
Objective: Ensure all data inputs are validated, sanitized, and handled securely to prevent vulnerabilities
Status: External Input Trust: The build pulls remote content (e.g., versions/properties via Gradle tasks) and downloads installers without explicit checksum verification in the workflow, leaving validation to Gradle logic not shown in this diff.
Description: The Gradle validation example logs when mariadbRootPwd is empty, which may encourage keeping default empty root passwords in shipped configs (e.g., bearsampp.conf shows mariadbRootPwd = ""), potentially distributing archives with a blank database root password and risking unauthorized local access if used beyond controlled dev environments.
// Check port numberif (!content.contains("mariadbPort = \"3307\"")) { println("WARNING: ${confFile.name} uses non-standard port")}// Check for empty passwordif (content.contains("mariadbRootPwd = \"\"")) { println("INFO: ${confFile.name} has empty root password")}
}
Insecure default password
Description: Documentation and examples set mariadbRootPwd = "" as the default, normalizing an empty root password for MariaDB which, if deployed or used in shared environments, can expose the database to immediate compromise. README.md [224-241]

---
Why: This is a critical bug fix, as the release job would never be triggered with the current configuration, rendering the release automation non-functional.
High
Verify 7-Zip install path reliably
Improve the 7-Zip setup step by dynamically finding the installation path instead of hardcoding it, making the workflow more robust.
Why: The suggestion correctly points out that hardcoding the 7-Zip path is fragile and provides a more robust PowerShell script to dynamically locate the executable, preventing future breaks.
Low
General
Fail CI on broken links
Remove continue-on-error: true from the Markdown link check step to ensure that broken links cause the validation job to fail.
Why: The suggestion correctly identifies that continue-on-error: true defeats the purpose of the validation step, and removing it makes the CI pipeline more effective at catching documentation errors.
Medium
Align Java version requirement
Correct the Java version requirement in the documentation to be consistently Java 17, aligning with the CI configuration and other parts of the documentation.
### Compatibility
-- **Java**: Requires Java 17 or higher (previously Java 8+)+- **Java**: Requires Java 17 or higher
[To ensure code accuracy, apply this suggestion manually]
Suggestion importance[1-10]: 5
__
Why: The suggestion correctly identifies an inconsistency in the documented Java version requirements across multiple files, and aligning them improves clarity and prevents user confusion.
Low
Avoid unnecessary chmod on Windows
Make the chmod +x gradlew step conditional to only run on non-Windows operating systems, as it is unnecessary on the windows-latest runner.
Why: The suggestion correctly identifies that chmod is unnecessary on the Windows runner and proposes a conditional execution, which improves workflow robustness and portability.

Why: The suggestion correctly identifies a critical flaw where the release job would never be triggered, rendering the automated release part of the workflow non-functional.
High
General
Support both 7z and zip artifacts
Update the Check build output step to look for both .7z and .zip artifacts to align with the configurable bundle.format property.
Why: The suggestion correctly points out that the workflow's artifact check is hardcoded for .7z files, which would cause the build to fail if the configurable bundle.format property is set to zip.

Why: This suggestion correctly identifies an inconsistency in the documentation where it mentions Kotlin DSL instead of Groovy DSL, which is what the project actually uses according to other parts of the documentation.
Low
✅ Correct DSL claim in summarySuggestion Impact:The conclusion line was updated to reflect "Groovy DSL" instead of "Kotlin DSL" as suggested.
code diff:
-- ✓ Pure Gradle build with Kotlin DSL-- ✓ Comprehensive documentation (4,000+ lines)
In the conclusion section, correct the summary point to state the project uses Groovy DSL instead of Kotlin DSL.
-- ✓ Pure Gradle build with Kotlin DSL+- ✓ Pure Gradle build with Groovy DSL
Suggestion importance[1-10]: 5
__
Why: This suggestion correctly identifies a factual error in the conclusion section of the summary document, where it states the build uses Kotlin DSL instead of Groovy DSL. This fix improves the documentation's consistency and accuracy.
To improve security and reduce artifact size, modify the log upload step to include only specific report files instead of the entire .gradle directory.
Why: This is a strong suggestion that improves security hygiene by preventing the leakage of cache data and credentials, while also optimizing CI performance by significantly reducing the size of uploaded artifacts.
Medium
General
Make artifact check format-agnostic
Update the build output check to be format-agnostic by searching for both .7z and .zip files, preventing CI failures if the archive format is changed in the configuration.
Why: The suggestion correctly points out that the artifact check is brittle as it hardcodes the .7z extension, while the build system supports .zip. The proposed change makes the CI workflow more robust and resilient to configuration changes.
Medium
✅ Fix DSL type inconsistencySuggestion Impact:The commit updated the comparison table's "Build Language" entry from "Kotlin DSL" to "Groovy DSL," aligning the documentation with the Groovy-based build.
code diff:

Why: The suggestion correctly identifies a documentation inconsistency that could confuse users, and the proposed fix aligns the table with the project's stated use of Groovy DSL.
Low
Possible issue
Correct minimum version requirements
Update the prerequisite Java version from '8+' to '17+' and Gradle from '7+' to '8+' to align with requirements mentioned elsewhere in the documentation.
Why: The suggestion correctly identifies inconsistent Java version requirements across the documentation and proposes a fix to prevent user environment misconfiguration.
Low
Avoid unnecessary chmod on Windows
Remove the chmod +x gradlew step, as it is unnecessary for the windows-latest runner and could cause intermittent failures.
+# Removed on Windows; if you add Linux/macOS runners, gate the step like:
- name: Make gradlew executable
+ if: runner.os != 'Windows'
run: chmod +x gradlew
shell: bash
Suggestion importance[1-10]: 5
__
Why: The suggestion correctly identifies that chmod +x is unnecessary on the windows-latest runner and removing it improves the workflow's robustness by preventing potential platform-specific errors.
Consolidate the excessive and redundant documentation
The PR adds too much redundant documentation across many files, which is hard to maintain and use. This should be consolidated into fewer, more focused documents like a main README, a task reference, and a configuration guide.
# Gradle Conversion Summary
This document summarizes the conversion of the MariaDB module from Apache Ant to Gradle.
## Overview
The MariaDB module has been successfully converted to use a pure Gradle build system with Kotlin DSL, following the patterns established in other Bearsampp modules (bruno, git, apache).
## Files Created

# Gradle Conversion Summary## Conversion Complete ✓
The MariaDB module has been successfully converted to use **Gradle with Groovy DSL** (no wrapper).
## What Was Done### ✓ Build System- Created `build.gradle` with **Groovy DSL** (~150 lines)

Possible issue
✅ Remove misleading and contradictory documentation fileSuggestion Impact:The commit effectively deleted the content of .gradle-docs/CONVERSION-SUMMARY.md by replacing the 338-line file with an empty (or single placeholder) file, thereby removing the misleading documentation as suggested.

__
Why: The suggestion correctly identifies that the entire .gradle-docs/CONVERSION-SUMMARY.md file is factually incorrect and contradicts the project's actual Gradle setup (Kotlin DSL with wrapper). Removing this misleading file is critical to prevent significant confusion for developers.
Medium
Fix incorrect build path priority
Correct the priority for determining buildPath to check the environment variable first, then the properties file, and finally the default value.
Why: The suggestion correctly identifies that the example code for buildPath has an incorrect priority order which contradicts the documented priority, and it provides a valid fix.
Low
✅ Correct the build script filename and languageSuggestion Impact:The README’s project structure section was modified, and the line referencing the Gradle build file no longer shows "build.gradle". The section with the incorrect "build.gradle" entry was removed/overhauled, addressing the mismatch highlighted by the suggestion.
Correct the project structure diagram in README.md to reference build.gradle.kts (Kotlin) instead of build.gradle (Groovy), aligning it with the project's actual implementation.
Why: This suggestion correctly identifies a factual error in the main README.md file. Correcting this is important for user clarity, as the README.md is a primary entry point for understanding the project, and the error contradicts the actual implementation shown in the CI workflow.
Low
Use configured archive format dynamically
Update the bundle task example to dynamically use the bundle.format property from build.properties for the archive format instead of hardcoding it to .7z.
val bundle by registering(Exec::class) {
dependsOn(release)
- commandLine("7z", "a", "-t7z", "-mx=9",- "${buildPath}/bearsampp-${bundleName}-${bundleRelease}.7z",+ val outputFile = "${buildPath}/bearsampp-${bundleName}-${bundleRelease}.${bundleFormat}"+ // The command can be adjusted based on bundleFormat+ commandLine("7z", "a", "-t${bundleFormat}", "-mx=9",+ outputFile,

workingDir = file(buildPath)
}
Suggestion importance[1-10]: 5
__
Why: The suggestion correctly points out that the example code hardcodes the archive format, ignoring the bundle.format property, which makes the example inconsistent and misleading.
Low
General
Enable incremental builds for release
Refactor the release task example to use a Copy task with a filter instead of modifying files in-place, enabling Gradle's incremental build feature for better performance.
Why: The suggestion correctly identifies an inefficiency in the example release task and proposes a better, more idiomatic Gradle approach using a Copy task to enable incremental builds.
Medium
Security
Avoid uploading the entire .gradle directory
Refine the Upload build logs step to upload specific report directories like build/reports/ and .gradle/build-scan-data/ instead of the entire build/ and .gradle/ directories to improve efficiency and security.
Why: The suggestion correctly identifies that uploading the entire .gradle directory is inefficient and a potential security risk. Proposing to upload specific, relevant log directories is a significant improvement for the CI pipeline's performance and security.
Docs and CHANGELOG indicate Java 17+ and Gradle wrapper presence in places, while other docs state Java 8+ and that the wrapper is not shipped. The workflow uses Java 17. Ensure all documentation and CI consistently require the same Java version and wrapper usage.
The changelog claims Kotlin DSL, Gradle wrapper added, and Java 17+ requirement, but docs in .gradle-docs use Groovy DSL, mention no wrapper, and Java 8+. Align language (Groovy vs Kotlin), wrapper usage, and Java requirements across files.
