Problem on starting React-Android App

Hi
I have started today a build of an App following the React Native CLI Quickstart (very clear and exaustive).
I created a new React Native project and I tried to install it on my Android mobile
After setting the corrects path for Android SDK and having downloaded Gradle. I have had yet a problem:

C:\www\React\formgen>npx react-native run-android
info Running jetifier to migrate libraries to AndroidX. You can disable it using "--no-jetifier" flag.
Jetifier found 967 file(s) to forward-jetify. Using 4 workers...
info JS server already running.
info Installing the app...

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Could not initialize class org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerHelper

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Get more help at https://help.gradle.org

BUILD FAILED in 1s

error Failed to install the app. Make sure you have the Android development environment set up: https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup. Run CLI with --verbose flag for more details.
Error: Command failed: gradlew.bat app:installDebug -PreactNativeDevServerPort=8081
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

In particular:
Could not initialize class org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerHelper

Thanks
