NullPointerException generating archetype when mirrors are in settings.xml --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ARCHETYPE-177 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-177 Project: Maven Archetype Issue Type: Bug Components: Archetypes, Generator Environment: Windows XP Pro Reporter: Frank Adcock When attempting to generate any archetype from the mvn archetype:generate command I get a null pointer exception thrown if I have mirrors defined in my settings.xml file. I believe there is a related issue where mvn package will also get a null pointer exception if a repository specified in the project pom does not have a matching mirror id in the settings.xml. However, the stack trace for the archetype generation is: Choose a number: (1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16/17/18/19/20/21/22/23/2 4/25/26/27/28/29/30/31/32/33/34/35/36/37/38/39/40/41/42/43/44) 15: : 6 [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] : java.lang.NullPointerException null [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Trace org.apache.maven.BuildFailureException at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeGoals(Defa ultLifecycleExecutor.java:579) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeStandalone Goal(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:512) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeGoal(Defau ltLifecycleExecutor.java:482) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeGoalAndHan dleFailures(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:330) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeTaskSegmen ts(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:227) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.execute(DefaultLi fecycleExecutor.java:142) at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.doExecute(DefaultMaven.java:336) at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.execute(DefaultMaven.java:129) at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.main(MavenCli.java:287) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl. java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAcces sorImpl.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) Caused by: org.apache.maven.plugin.MojoFailureException at org.apache.maven.archetype.mojos.CreateProjectFromArchetypeMojo.execu te(CreateProjectFromArchetypeMojo.java:202) at org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultPluginManager.executeMojo(DefaultPlugi nManager.java:451) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeGoals(Defa ultLifecycleExecutor.java:558) ... 16 more [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 7 seconds [INFO] Finished at: Wed May 28 17:49:39 EST 2008 [INFO] Final Memory: 8M/14M [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ C:\Documents and Settings\frank\My Documents\Development\Sandbox>mvn -v Maven version: 2.0.9 Java version: 1.5.0_08 OS name: "windows xp" version: "5.1" arch: "x86" Family: "windows" The mirrored settings from the settings.xml file are: <mirrors> <mirror> <id>public-snapshots</id> <name>public-snapshots</name> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public-snapshots</url> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-central</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>central</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-maven-repo</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>maven-repo</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-apache-m2-incubator</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>apache.m2.incubator</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-eclipse-repository</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>eclipse-repository</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-safehaus-repository</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>safehaus-repository</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-spring-ext</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>spring-ext</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-i21-s3-osgi-repo</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>i21-s3-osgi-repo</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-i21-s3-maven-repo</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>i21-s3-maven-repo</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-appfuse</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>appfuse</mirrorOf> </mirror> <mirror> <id>nexus-java.net</id> <url>http://maven.ho.bushlife.com.au:8081/nexus/content/groups/public</url> <mirrorOf>java.net</mirrorOf> </mirror> </mirrors> These mirrored settings work for other builds within eclipse, just not from the archetype generation, so the proxy repo is working well, but the null pointer exceptions make it difficult to figure out what the problem is. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. -
