I am read the some answer to tell that the script do dot have mainClassName,but my config contains the mainClassName config,what should I do to fix this error? I am using macOS catalina.

downgrade the gradle to 4.0.1,it works.this is the gradle-wrapper.properties config:
#Mon Jan 06 13:52:34 CST 2020
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.0.1-all.zip
distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
this is the build command:
~/quickstart ⌚ 14:48:25
$ ./gradlew clean shadowJar
Downloading https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.0.1-all.zip

Starting a Gradle Daemon (subsequent builds will be faster)
