'Failed build Project after change directory to external storage; Timeout waiting to lock Java compile cache (/.gradle/7.0.2/javaCompile)

I have an issue when building project after created a new project in different volumes in Mac Os.

This what error said :

Could not create service of type DefaultGeneralCompileCaches using GradleScopeCompileServices.createGeneralCompileCaches().
   > Timeout waiting to lock Java compile cache (/Volumes/SDMICRO/ANDROID/AwPlayerTes/.gradle/7.0.2/javaCompile). It is currently in use by another Gradle instance.
     Owner PID: unknown
     Our PID: 2394
     Owner Operation: unknown
     Our operation: 
     Lock file: /Volumes/SDMICRO/ANDROID/AwPlayerTes/.gradle/7.0.2/javaCompile/javaCompile.lock
