Surefire fails to start when the local repository and the project (pom.xml)
lives in different window drives
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MSUREFIRE-43
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSUREFIRE-43
Project: Maven 2.x Surefire Plugin
Type: Bug
Versions: 2.1.2
Environment: Windows XP
Java 1.5.0_06
Maven 2.0.1
Surefire fork mode: once
Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
We have the following situation:
- Local repository in {{C:\Documents and Settings\user\.m2}}
- A Maven 2 project in {{P:\MyProject}}.
- Surefire fork mode set to "once".
In this configuration, surefire fails with this (somewhat misleading) error
message:
{quote}
Setting reports dir: {{P:\MyProject\target/surefire-reports}}
BUILD ERROR
There are some test failure.
{quote}
This message is misleading because it suggests that some user's tests failed,
while actually Surefile didn't executed a single one. It even failed before to
create the {{surefire-reports}} directory! So we have no indication about the
cause, and printing the stack trace with the {{-e}} option doesn't help much (I
suspect that this is because the stack trace was actually produced by a
different virtual machine instance, and was not passed to the JVM running
Maven). Running Maven with the {{-X}} option provides more hints however. We
can see that Maven try to executes the following command:
{{java -Xmx512M -enableassertions -classpath
"C:\...snip...\.m2\repository\org\apache\maven\surefire\surefire-booter\1.5.2\surefire-booter-1.5.2.jar;
C:\Java\Apache\Maven2\bin\..\core\plexus-utils-1.0.5.jar"
org.apache.maven.surefire.SurefireBooter P:\MyProject}}
Running this command manually gives the following output:
{code}
ClassLoader: typeclass sun.misc.Launcher$ExtClassLoader, value=...snip...
: file:/C:/Java/1.5/jre/lib/ext/sunjce_provider.jar
: file:/C:/Java/1.5/jre/lib/ext/sunpkcs11.jar
(...snip...)
ClassLoader: typeclass sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader, value=...snip...
: file:/C:/Documents ...snip... /.m2/repository/ ...snip..
./surefire-booter-1.5.2.jar
: file:/C:/Java/Apache/Maven2/core/plexus-utils-1.0.5.jar
ClassLoader: typeclass org.apache.maven.surefire.IsolatedClassLoader,
value=...snip...
: file:/P:/MyProjects/
(...snip...)
: file:/P:/Documents and
Settings/user/.m2/repository/...snip.../surefire-1.5.2.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
org.apache.maven.surefire.Surefire
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200)
(...snip...)
{code}
As you can see, the path for {{surefire-1.5.2.jar}} wrongly refer to the drive
letter {{P:}}. It should be {{C:}} instead.
