------------------------------------
Summary: javadoc.bat fails to execute on Windows when project is
not on drive C and AutoRun is configured
Key: MJAVADOC-811
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-811
Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: javadoc
Affects Versions: 3.8.0
Environment: Windows 10, Java 11, Maven 3.9.9
Reporter: Sebastian T
Trying to execute the javadoc plugin in a Maven build on Windows results in
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-javadoc-plugin:3.8.0:jar (attach-javadocs) on
project myproject: MavenReportException: Error while generating Javadoc:
[ERROR] Exit code: 1 - javadoc: error - cannot read options (The system cannot
find the file specified)
[ERROR]
[ERROR] Command line was: cmd.exe /X /C "F:\java\temurin_jdk11\bin\javadoc.exe
@options @packages"[ERROR]
[ERROR] Refer to the generated Javadoc files in
'F:\projects\myproject\target\apidocs' dir.
when the project is not on the system drive and {{HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software
\ Microsoft \ Command Processor \ AutoRun}} is configured to some directory on
drive C. Then cmd.exe will not execute in the current directory but in the
directory specified via AutoRun. This is the case in a corporate environment I
am working in.
The solution is trivial by adding the /D flag to cmd.exe
