I had issues installing as well (Mac OSX + Java 9.04 + IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition 2017.3)

If you are using the new Java 9 JDK (like I did), there is an error that is thrown when trying to install Gradle through IntelliJ IDEA.

I had to manually install Gradle following these instructions: https://gradle.org/install/

Then in the menu: IntelliJ IDEA->Preferences->Build, Execution, Deployment->Build Tools->Gradle update the Gradle Home field value to your install path for the new Gradle version - in this case I installed to /opt/gradle/gradle-4.6 but obviously it will depend on where you manually installed Gradle to.
