Key: MRELEASE-681 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-681 Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin Issue Type: Bug Components: perform Affects Versions: 2.2 Environment: maven 2.2.1, java 1.6_23 on windows 7 64 bit Reporter: Khai Do Priority: Minor Attachments: maven-log.txt I'm getting java.lang.NullPointerException when building when i reference maven-release-plugin in my pom.xml, It doesn't seem to matter which version of the plugin i reference. i'm using maven 2.2.1, java 1.6_23 on windows 7 64 bit. I can also repro on linux. The only way it works without error is if I specify 2.0-beta-9 from the command line: mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-release-plugin:2.0-beta-9:perform -DconnectionUrl=.. It fails if I do this: mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-release-plugin:2.1:perform -DconnectionUrl=.. It also fails when I reference 2.0-beta-9 in my pom.xml then run: mvn relase:perform -DconnectionUrl=.. -- 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
