Michael Lee commented on MNG-3086: ---------------------------------- We have also hit this problem in our environment. All of our projects have a mix of internal and external dependencies Running: "mvn clean install" on Project A caused the problem. Running "mvn dependency:resolve" also causes the problment In our case we isolated our problem to a change in the version dependencies of our internal project WORKING CASE: Project A depends directly on exact version 1.2.4 of Project B Project A depends directly on exact version 1.1.2 of Project C Project C depends directly on exact version 1.2.4 of Project B i.e. Project A, and it's dedendency C, both agree on the specific version of B required. FAILING CASE 1: We build a new version of Project B to make it vesion 1.2.5 We change the Project A dependency to depend on version 1.2.5 of Project B Project A depends directly on exact version 1.1.2 of Project C Project C continues to depend directly on exact version 1.2.4 of Project B The difference in version now triggers the getTrail error FAILING CASE 2: We change the Project A dependency to depend on version 1.2.5 of Project B We update Project C to depend on range of Project B i.e. [1.2.5,) and we rebuild Project C to create version 1.1.3 (i.e. new build just to change the dependency) We update Project A to depent directly on exact version 1.1.3 of Project C I was expecting this to work, but it still triggers the getTrail exception TEMPORARY RESOLUTION Building on failing case 2, I: Updated Project A to depend on a range of Project B i.e. [1.2.5,) instead of 1.2.5 Updated Project A to depend on a range of Project C i.e. [1.1.3,) instead of 1.1.3 This now works correctly. Whoever gets assigned to this bug - keep up the great work. > NullPointerException in ResolutionNode.getTrail(ResolutionNode.java:136) > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-3086 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3086 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Errors > Affects Versions: 2.0.7 > Reporter: Thomas Leonard > > After upgrading from 2.0.6 to 2.0.7, our build fails with: > [INFO] [resources:resources] > [INFO] Using default encoding to copy filtered resources. > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [ERROR] FATAL ERROR > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [INFO] null > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [INFO] Trace > java.lang.NullPointerException > at > org.apache.maven.artifact.resolver.ResolutionNode.getTrail(ResolutionNode.java:136) > at > org.apache.maven.artifact.resolver.ResolutionNode.filterTrail(ResolutionNode.java:211) > at > org.apache.maven.artifact.resolver.DefaultArtifactCollector.collect(DefaultArtifactCollector.java:89) > at > org.apache.maven.artifact.resolver.DefaultArtifactResolver.resolveTransitively(DefaultArtifactResolver.java:284) > at > org.apache.maven.artifact.resolver.DefaultArtifactResolver.resolveTransitively(DefaultArtifactResolver.java:272) > at > org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultPluginManager.resolveTransitiveDependencies(DefaultPluginManager.java:1238) > at > org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultPluginManager.executeMojo(DefaultPluginManager.java:397) > at > org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeGoals(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:539) > at > org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeGoalWithLifecycle(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:480) > at > org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeGoal(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:459) > at > org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeGoalAndHandleFailures(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:311) > at > org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeTaskSegments(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:278) > at > org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.execute(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:143) > at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.doExecute(DefaultMaven.java:334) > at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.execute(DefaultMaven.java:125) > at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.main(MavenCli.java:280) > at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) > at > sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) > at > sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) > at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:585) > at org.codehaus.classworlds.Launcher.launchEnhanced(Launcher.java:315) > at org.codehaus.classworlds.Launcher.launch(Launcher.java:255) > at > org.codehaus.classworlds.Launcher.mainWithExitCode(Launcher.java:430) > at org.codehaus.classworlds.Launcher.main(Launcher.java:375) > Thanks, -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
