Hi there,
I have an odd problem running a Maven build on the slave windows1.
The build fails with the message:
${maven.home} is not specified as a directory: 'F:\hudson\tools\maven\latest3'.
The code producing this error is basically taking the value of the "maven.home"
system property, creating a Java File object from the value and calling
".isDirectory()"
on it. So I wonder why "new
File("F:\hudson\tools\maven\latest3").isDirectory()" would
return false on windows1. Mind, this is not my code, it's part of Maven itself.
Earlier in the build log, the same path is used in a classpath line and appears
to be unproblematic there:
f:\hudson\tools\java\latest-1.6-64/bin/java -Xmx800m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -cp
f:\hudson\hudson-slave\maven3-agent.jar;f:\hudson\tools\maven\latest3\boot\plexus-classworlds-2.4.jar
org.jvnet.hudson.maven3.agent.Maven3Main f:\hudson\tools\maven\latest3
C:\Users\hudson\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\39\4bb6b7e7-5af105be
f:\hudson\hudson-slave\maven3-interceptor.jar
f:\hudson\hudson-slave\maven3-interceptor-commons.jar 63136
The only difference I can see is "F:\…" vs. "f:\…", but as Windows is not case
sensitive, that shouldn't
be an issue.
A problematic build is e.g. this one:
https://builds.apache.org/job/UIMA-uimaFIT/122/console
Since the build is nice on Linux slaves, I suspect some Windows oddness.
Does anybody have an idea what's the problem here?
Cheers,
