Ionic build a android app get the following

Capacitor
1

‘gradlew’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
source: ionic extension

Any ideas - I installed gradle on my win 10 machine

2

SO I was able to get past the gradlew by issuing
npx cap open android

and open android syudio

but now I get
BUILD FAILED in 745ms

[error]
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception

  • What went wrong:
    Task ‘assembleDebug’ not found in root project ‘android’.

Thanks in advance
