[ERROR] javac: invalid target release: 1.7

[ry...@c-k.com]

I've tried installing using the following command:

sudo mvn clean install -DskipUTs -DskipITs

It will not complete the installation. I get the below error:

[ERROR] COMPILATION ERROR :

Any idea what I can do to fix this?

Thanks!

Hi,

what Operating System are you using? It looks like Java version 1.7 is not installed in your system. Please, check your Java version by typing "java -version".

[ry...@c-k.com]

I'm on Mac OS X, Yosemite. You're right, I don't have Java 1.7, I'm on 1.8. Is it possible to use with 1.8? When I tried to install 1.7, It would not let me because I'm on 1.8. I'm not sure if there's away to have both. 

[Miguel Angel Fernandez]

Even if you have the version 1.8 installed, it should work. It might be a problem with the JAVA_HOME, could you please check if this variable is set up by typing "echo $JAVA_HOME" as root user?

[ry...@c-k.com]

I was able to get 1.7 install. It still didn't work. I've got JAVA_HOME set to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_79.jdk/Contents/Home.

Also, when I run mvn clean install -DskipUTs -DskipITswhich without sudo, it stops earlier, and gives me the following error:

Thanks for your help!

Hi!

You have to clean the old generated files with:

sudo mvn clean

after that, you could do a mvn clean install without sudo

[ry...@c-k.com]

Hey Luis, that worked! Everything got installed.

Thanks!
