Hervé Boutemy commented on DOXIASITETOOLS-179:
----------------------------------------------
ok, found the cause: with Velocity 1.5, Velocity displays error message in logs
before sending its VelocityException
{noformat}[ERROR] Method charAt threw exception for reference $text in template
C:\Users\mosipov\Downloads\velocity-exception-site\src\site\apt\index.apt.vm at
[20,17]{noformat}
Then the general exception handling algorithm did not try to get the info: it
was displayed.
With Velocity 1.7, this Velocity error log behaviour disappeared, which is IMHO
more consistent.
Then the exception handling is not sufficient any more...
I'll update the code tonight, since there is some cleanup to do around this old
code

> I have a site page {{index.apt.vm}} which is a Velocity template:
> {noformat}
> My best index page
> #set ($text = 'text')
> #set ($text = $text.charAt(-1))
> {noformat}
> When building maven site, this template fails (of course) with a runtime
> exception. Also the maven build fails (good) with the following output:
> {noformat}
> [ERROR] Error parsing My/site/path/index.apt.vm as a velocity template, using
> as text.
> [ERROR] Failed to execute goal
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:3.6:site (default-site) on project
> test-project: Error getting a parser for 'My/site/path/index.apt.vm'
> {noformat}
> This output is not much helpful and is a little misleading. Velocity throws
> an exception with parsing error line and column. It would be nice to see this
> in maven error message so it is easy to see where the problem is.
> I can see full stack trace with maven debug build (-X) but I would expect
> this type of error to be reported in normal build.
