 Description  « Hide

It's really hard to know which module this problem belongs to...

When running maven -X multiproject, I get the following towards the end of the generation:

BUILD FAILED

can you provide any <reports> sections in the project.xml files involved in the build.

I will have to close this "cannot reproduce" without knowing the reports section.

I will attempt to correct the NPE error reporting in 1.0.1 though.

After some more investigation, I've found the problem. There was a module dependency that didn't have the latest version in the repository.

In other words, the problem was self-inflicted, so this issue should really be about improving the error handling. A missing dependency should not result in a NPE, but rather an appropriate error message. I hope this will be improved in the next version.

Håvard, I'm not sure I understand your situation with a missing dependency, because I'm not sure at what stage this error occurs.

Do you have a small project that demonstrates this problem so that it can be replicated? I'd really like to fix the source of the problem.

In the next version, I have changed this to a warning rather than trying to dereference something that doesn't exist - hopefully this will cause the error to show up in a more informative location.

Brett, I have investigated this a bit more, and the NPE occurs only if we tell multiproject to ignore errors:
maven.multiproject.ignoreFailures=true

I will attach a zip file with three mini-projects that illustrate the situation. Please let me know if you need more input.

3 mini-projects that illustrate the NPE problem.
Unzip the file, cd into tt-main and run 'maven multiproject'.
See tt-main/project.properties for how to stop and complain, rather than continue to get NPE.

fixed this specific instance of the problem.
will need to do a bit of work on the reactor/attainGoals in 1.1 to improve handling if there were a fatal exception.
