Kotlin compile error with JDK 11 (JDK 8 not available)

Hi,
I am writing a gradle plugin with Kotlin.
I have JDK 11 set up on my machine.
When I build the plugin in my command line, it is failing at “compileKotlin” stage.

e: No class roots are found in the JDK path: C:\Program Files\RedHat\java-11-openjdk

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':plugin:compileKotlin'.
> A failure occurred while executing org.jetbrains.kotlin.compilerRunner.GradleCompilerRunnerWithWorkers$GradleKotlinCompilerWorkAction
   > Compilation error. See log for more details

I would like to use kotlin with just JDK 11.
Please help me out here.

Can you show the exact command line command, and also your project file?

Thanks for your reply.
There was a problem with my JAVA_HOME.
Once I corrected it, I did not face this issue anymore.
