when adding module annotation and build project error shown

[michaelsam94]

`Execution failed for task ':app:kaptDebugKotlin'.

A failure occurred while executing org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.internal.KaptWithoutKotlincTask$KaptExecutionWorkAction
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException (no error message)

• Try:
  Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --scan to get full insights.`

I create repo showing the error

That error is usually an indicator that the annotation processor crashed, to see the full error use the --stacktrace option, like this: ./gradlew assembleDebug --stacktrace.

Then you'll see the full error:

Anyway, this is an issue with Kotlin 1.5.0 and it was fixed in Dagger 2.34, specifically you are hitting #2511. I see the sample project is using 2.27, please update your Dagger version.
