Prabaharan Gopalan [http://community.jboss.org/people/prabugp] created the discussion "JBoss AS - build.bat fails with a MojoExecutionException" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/590256#590256 -------------------------------------------------------------- All, I wish to be part of the JBoss community and contribute in whatever ways I can. So, i started out by checking out the source from SVN ( http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/trunk/build http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/trunk/build ) and following the readme, executed build.bat. Initially the build failed with outOfMemory errors but then i got around them by setting the MAVEN_OPTS to use Xmx1024m. so, now it is not throwing OutOfMemory. But i'm getting this error while executing JBoss Application Server Build. It always fails with the error [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:license-maven-plugin:1.0-alpha-1-2-jbossorg:download-licenses (default) on project jboss-as-build: Unable to parse license summary output file. NullPointerException -> [Help 1] org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:license-maven-plugin:1.0-alpha-1-2-jbossorg:download-licenses (default) on project jboss-as-build: Unable to parse license summary output file.         at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:203)         at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:148)         at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:140)         at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleModuleBuilder.buildProject(LifecycleModuleBuilder.java:84)         at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleModuleBuilder.buildProject(LifecycleModuleBuilder.java:59)         at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleStarter.singleThreadedBuild(LifecycleStarter.java:183)         at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleStarter.execute(LifecycleStarter.java:161)         at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.doExecute(DefaultMaven.java:314)         at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.execute(DefaultMaven.java:151)         at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.execute(MavenCli.java:445)         at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.doMain(MavenCli.java:168)         at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.main(MavenCli.java:132)         at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)         at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39)         at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25)         at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:597)         at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.launchEnhanced(Launcher.java:290)         at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.launch(Launcher.java:230)         at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.mainWithExitCode(Launcher.java:409)         at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.main(Launcher.java:352) Caused by: org.apache.maven.plugin.MojoExecutionException: Unable to parse license summary output file.         at org.codehaus.mojo.license.DownloadLicensesMojo.loadLicenseInfo(DownloadLicensesMojo.java:241)         at org.codehaus.mojo.license.DownloadLicensesMojo.execute(DownloadLicensesMojo.java:147)         at org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultBuildPluginManager.executeMojo(DefaultBuildPluginManager.java:107)         at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:195)         ... 19 more Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException         at org.codehaus.mojo.license.DownloadLicensesMojo.loadLicenseInfo(DownloadLicensesMojo.java:232)         ... 22 more [ERROR] [ERROR] [ERROR] For more information about the errors and possible solutions, please read the following articles: [ERROR] [Help 1] http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVEN/MojoExecutionException http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVEN/MojoExecutionException Press any key to continue . . . I'm on Win 7, 32bit, 4GB i7 machine. And my source version is 110803, and i'm on the trunk of jboss. I have been trying to find relevant information on this but so far no fruit.
