Netbeans could not import gradle project

when I use Netbeans to import a Gradle project. It failed with the following issue. The Gradle project is the source code of the book "Spring in Action".

I have installed gradle 2.2 and netbeans 8.0 in Ubuntu 12.04.

what can I do?

  Requested project: /mnt/hgfs/share/sia3-code/Spitter
