Building Share 6.2.1 fails

lutz_horn — Mon, 15 Jun 2020 11:37:00 GMT

I try to build the latest version 6.2.1 of Share (released on 2020-05-11) from this tag: https://github.com/Alfresco/share/tree/alfresco-share-parent-6.2.1

Java version: 11.0.6, vendor: AdoptOpenJDK
Maven version: Apache Maven 3.6.1

`mvn package` fails with this error:

Not able to replicate your issue. I did not see any issues when i tried building the same tag. I doubt this error has somethig to do with the share tag https://github.com/Alfresco/share/blob/alfresco-share-parent-6.2.1 itself.

I have littile bit difference in the java version and maven version though.

Java version:

java version "11.0.4" 2019-07-16 LTS
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.4+10-LTS)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.4+10-LTS, mixed mode)

Maven version:

Apache Maven 3.6.3 (cecedd343002696d0abb50b32b541b8a6ba2883f)

Here is the result for (mvn clean package):

Couple of things you can try:

1- Instead of just mvn package, try mvn clean package or mvn clean install

2- This error: "default-war of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-war-plugin:2.6:war failed: Cannot construct org.apache.maven.plugin.war.util.WebappStructure as it does not have a no-args constructor : Cannot construct org.apache.maven.plugin.war.util.WebappStructure as it does not have a no-args constructor" seems to be due to incompitable plugin version on the Java Version you have.

Try using updating the maven-war-plugin version to latest version.

I had the same problem !

Before :
mvn -version
Apache Maven 3.6.3
Maven home: /usr/share/maven
Java version: 11.0.8, vendor: Ubuntu, runtime: /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
Default locale: fr_FR, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux", version: "5.4.0-42-generic", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"

After :
mvn -version
Apache Maven 3.6.3 (cecedd343002696d0abb50b32b541b8a6ba2883f)
Maven home: /opt/apache-maven-3.6.3
Java version: 11.0.4, vendor: Oracle Corporation, runtime: /usr/lib/jvm/openjdk-11.0.4+11
Default locale: fr_FR, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux", version: "5.4.0-42-generic", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"

With :
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>

It's OK !

Thank you !
