Robert Scholte commented on MNG-7372:
-------------------------------------
I think everybody benefits if the right information is provided ASAP. The lazy
developer just copy/paste section X, we don't have to ask to provide other
basic information.
Other things that might be interesting: refer to the issue-tracker of the
plugin, maybe even provide the plugin configuration in case a plugin is causing
the issue. But let's start with the proper version information.
> Maven should display version info in case of error
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-7372
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7372
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Robert Scholte
> Priority: Minor
>
> On Stack Overflow you see quite often a Java related error in Maven and next
> they show the output of `java -version`.
> If `JAVA_HOME` was used, then the output of `java -version` is useless and
> could lead to false assumptions.
> In case of an Exception, the output of `mvn -v` should be added to console
> logging.
