The currently used version of Asciidoctor seems to be incompatible with Gradle 7. Therefore the build fails for following command .\gradlew.bat asciidoctor.
Used Configuration in Spring Initializr: - Project: Gradle - Language: Kotlin - Spring Boot: 2.5.0 (SNAPSHOT) - Dependencies: Spring REST Docs
Adaptions: - build.gradle.kts: fixed snippetsDir and dependsOn Test task - Added demo\src\docs\asciidoc\index.adoc as example
See attached reference project and console log: - console-log.txt - demo.zip

Thanks for the report, @Prieschl. Spring Boot doesn't have an opinion about the version of Asciidoctor's Gradle plugin. I guess you're referring to the version that's generated by start.spring.io so I've opened https://github.com/spring-io/start.spring.io/issues/676.

@wilkinsona Thank you for creating the issue for start.spring.io. Please also notice that AFAIK there isn't any compatible version of Asciidoctor's Gradle plugin for Gradle 7 at the moment.

id "org.asciidoctor.jvm.convert" version "3.3.2" works fine as far as I know. I've just double-checked with one of REST Docs' samples and it worked as expected.
