I'm using Gradle 2.3 and project has Groovy code. For static code analysis, I'm using Codenarc (i.e. project folder has "config/codenarc/codenarc.xml" file).

In the build.gradle / GRADLE_HOME/init.d/top-level.gradle file, I have:

apply plugin: 'codenarc'

   codenarc {
     ignoreFailures = true
     configFile = file("config/codenarc/codenarc.xml")
   }

But while compiling this project, I'm getting the following error.

13:49:00 :codenarcAcceptanceTest UP-TO-DATE
13:49:01 :codenarcIntegrationTest FAILED
13:49:01

The xml did not know what xsi is you have add this as prefix from the correct namespace url. Try the following header:

<ruleset xmlns="http://codenarc.org/ruleset/1.0"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://codenarc.org/ruleset/1.0 http://codenarc.org/ruleset-schema.xsd"
    xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://codenarc.org/ruleset-schema.xsd">
