NullPointerException in EncounterServiceTest , OpenMRS installation issue

[Magus Verma]

I am new to OpenMRS and have been facing some issues with its installation 

I used the step by step guide for installing it as a core developers .. I cloned the latest openmrs-core repository and imported in eclipse as maven project

On running "maven clean install" I am getting this error message , (prior to this it downloads many files and runs tests for about 15 minutes) 

Tests in error:

I have followed every step of the step by step guide installed all required eclipse plugins and have tomcat and mysql installed and running , tried JDK 1.6,1.7,1.8 but nothing has helped in above error. 

I would really appreciate some help on this.

Magus,

Try skipping the tests.

Hi Magus,

Yeas as Mhawila suggest you can run mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true but it's not always recommand. We always try to stabilize our build. I have build the latest master branch now. Not got any error. Can you switch to java 1.6 and try build it again? May be that can be the issue. Make sure you using the right version. 

Thanks,

Thanks, it worked on skipping test cases, also thanks for the quick reply!

[Mhawila A. Mhawila]

Magus,

That is good, but it is even better if you follow Harsha's advice.

[haraneesh reddy]

All - I am using jdk 1.7.0_65 and I am getting this error on 1.12 version of OpenMRS. Is this related to JDK version? If so what is the version to be used?

...

[Mhawila A. Mhawila]

Hi haraneesh,

I am running mvn clean install on java 1.6.0_65 successfully with all tests passing. Could you try to run JDK6 instead and see what happens.

-

Willa.

Thanks Willa. Java SDK version jdk1.7.0_76 compiles the openmrs 1.12.0. However other versions of JDK 1.7 throw errors.
