This is tracked in JetBrains bug tracker here: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-143300 Please vote for this issue.

There is a workaround which is to enable Legacy mode for the Windows shell.

To do so, open a command prompt window (cmd.exe), right click on the title, then select Properties. At the bottom, check Use legacy console. Confirm the dialog. Go back to the IDE and launch a new Terminal. It should work.

I faced the same problem in IntelliJ while I was working on a gradle-jbehave project. My problem was I had created the project using commandline and had left the command prompt window open. The issue disappeared when I closed all the open command prompt windows, ie:

  1. I opened cmd.exe
  2. created a mvn project using "mvn archetype:generate -Dfilter=org.jbehave:jbehave"
  3. then switching to the project root via cmd.exe "mvn idea:idea"
  4. changed it to a gradle project by "gradle init"
  5. Opened this project in intelliJ, everything looked good until I tried to build it via terminal
  6. I closed the cmd.exe I opened in step1, and voila, everything started to work fine.
