Daniel Einspanjer created NIFI-269:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Unable to build on Mac OSX
Key: NIFI-269
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-269
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Tools and Build
Affects Versions: 0.0.1
Reporter: Daniel Einspanjer
Priority: Minor
I was attempting to build the latest NiFi from the develop branch on my Mac and
received the following error:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.5.2:single (make shared
resource) on project nifi: Execution make shared resource of goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.5.2:single failed: user id
'748104463' is too big ( > 2097151 ) -> [Help 1]
After a bit of research I found that this error can happen frequently on Macs
and can be prevented by setting assembly.tarLongFileMode to posix rather than
gnu.
I adjusted my pom.xml as described and the build worked fine. Might be worth
one of the devs taking a look and determining if it has any detrimental effects.
See also an issue I found in the Phoenix project describing the same thing:
