try to compile from source, caught an error. What's wrong?

[Erik Bernoth]

I got the following errors and can't find documentation about them. What am I doing wrong?

The error occurs is in Jenkins Core (compiled in the github jenkins root folder on master, with mvn -X clean install, more details after log paste):

It's not the first time I get this error. I tried the same thing weeks or months ago, also with the one or the other tag / branch (can't remember clearly anymore). So I think it's more of a system configuration issue then a bug. Just if it's important: I run a Ubuntu 12.04 with fairly up to date software.

$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_24"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11.4) (6b24-1.11.4-1ubuntu0.12.04.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)

$ echo $JAVA_HOME # this one was manually set
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/jre/

Kind Regards
Erik

Someone help please, this is an ongoing problem.

Hello,

try to bump your jdk version to something more recent (1.6.0_24 is pretty old) like 1.6.0_35

Hello,

1. @Alex Earl for some reason your response is not shown in Google Groups which is why I couldn't respond to it earlier. I saw it in my mail inbox just right now, so I can respond:
$ mvn -v
Apache Maven 3.0.4 (r1232337; 2012-01-17 09:44:56+0100)
Maven home: /usr/local/apache-maven/apache-maven-3.0.4
Java version: 1.6.0_24, vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc.
Java home: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/jre
Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux", version: "3.2.0-30-generic", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"


2. @Vincent: That's not easy to do, because apt refuses to upgrade to a newer version. Anyway it's just a _sub version, it shouldn't have an influence. And if it's really a problem, could you say which tag / branch has a stable release which should run under 1.6.0_24? This way around any problem should be avoided, too, right?

[Erik Bernoth]

Problem continues to exist. If here is nobody who can help make it run, who else could I ask?
