Hey I posted this earlier and just got around to testing it, but It won’t seem to work for me when I run my build.gradle, did you run into anything like this?
What do you mean by ‘running’ build.gradle?
I seem to be getting the same issue. Could you provide a copy of your build.gradle?
As MUCH information as you would be kind enough to provide. link the video here and ill watch it for sure.
Yeah including how to debug the plugin would be nice. 
This Is great stuff
As you said there are other ways to debug your plugin. Here is one:
Instead of building a new artifact just add the plugin to the classpath. Forge will automagically load it.
The easiest way to do that is to create a new empty module.
(Don’t edit SpongeForge_java6 as it gets reset each time you do a gradle import)
Then add the SpongeForge_java6 module and your plugins module to it as a dependency.
Use this newly created module as classpath for your run configuration.
Add before launch “build project” (if you removed it)
done.

Indeed. The deed is done, your latest waxing and profundity now graces the SpongeDocs Plugin Tutorials page. I’ve just linked the playlist, it should speak for itself (literally). May the sound of Sponge Metal ring throughout the holiday season!

Just finished Part 2 of your playlist, and things were working up until they weren’t

Anyone able to shed any supporting light upon what to try?
It’s been pretty much a case of rabbit-see, rabbit-do here, so anything overtly technical may leave me twitching my nose and tail 
EDIT:
I ran “./gradlew setupDecompworkspace --refresh-dependencies” again and it’s doing a lot more now.
Will post a pastebin of what occurs after it’s finished, although it looks set to function based on the little I understand of what I can read.
Link for it running second time through - if it provides help in some way
