             Summary: Build fails in certain environments due to xerces OpenJPA 
issue
                 Key: OOZIE-1440
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-1440
             Project: Oozie
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: build
    Affects Versions: trunk
            Reporter: Robert Kanter
             Fix For: trunk


We've been seeing some build failures on some machines due to an issue with 
OpenJPA (specifically, the changes made in OOZIE-1377).  

We see these two cryptic errors in the output from the build:
{{[INFO] --- openjpa-maven-plugin:2.2.2:enhance (enhancer) @ oozie-core ---}}
{{An error occurred while attempting to determine the version of 
"file:/var/lib/jenkins/workspace/CDH4.3.1-Packaging-Oozie/build/cdh4/oozie/3.3.2-cdh4.3.1/source/core/target/classes/META-INF/persistence.xml".}}

{{[ERROR] Failed to execute goal 
org.apache.openjpa:openjpa-maven-plugin:2.2.2:enhance (enhancer) on project 
oozie-core: Execution enhancer of goal 
org.apache.openjpa:openjpa-maven-plugin:2.2.2:enhance failed: 
org.apache.openjpa.persistence.PersistenceProductDerivation:java.lang.ClassCastException:
 org.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeAwareParserConfiguration cannot be cast to 
org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration -> [Help 1]}}

I saw that RAVE-245 had a similar error and their solution was to add Xerces as 
a dependency on the OpenJPA plugin.  This prevents a classpath env issue from 
sometimes choosing the built-in buggy version of Xerces that Java is using by 
default (see OOZIE-1017), and instead to use the better version that we've been 
using elsewhere.
