Intellij downloads Gradle dependencies but cannot resolve symbols

When I try to use the dependencies I laid out in my build.gradle Intellij fails to build the code and throws errors java: cannot find symbol

. How can I get Intellij to recognize my dependencies?

PS: lbrary shows up in "External Libraries" and I also have this problem with all my other dependencies.

In my build.gradle I have the following:

...
dependencies {
    ...
    compile 'com.squareup.okhttp:okhttp:2.1.0'
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

In my code, I am trying to use this library:

import com.squareup.okhttp.OkHTTPClient;
...
OkHTTPClient client = new OkHTTPClient();

      

        
        
        
      

    

errors raised on both lines.

EDIT from comment: Command line build fails with the same errors, I assume I blamed Intellij wrongly. How can I find out why the dependencies are not loading? They sit in my build.gradle in dependencies as I've shown. They are also present when run gradle dependencies

under compilation, by default, at runtime, testCompile and testRuntime, but not in the archives. Where is the problem?

EDIT2: output from gradle dependencies
