------------------------------------
Summary: Nar-Dependency-Version - timestamped snapshot version
problem
Key: NIFI-4930
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4930
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Tools and Build
Affects Versions: 1.2.0
Reporter: Arne Degenring
The NAR Maven Plugin 1.2.0 is using artifact.getVersion() to determine the
Nar-Dependency-Version, however this version number can be a timestamped
snapshot version number if the dependency was downloaded from a remote repo.
The Nar-Dependency-Version can then differ from the declared Nar-Version in the
other JAR.
Suggested Fix in NarMojo.java: use artifact.getBaseVersion() instead of
artifact.getVersion():
Replace line 705:
narDependency = new NarDependency(artifact.getGroupId(),
artifact.getArtifactId(), artifact.getVersion());
with:
narDependency = new NarDependency(artifact.getGroupId(),
artifact.getArtifactId(), artifact.getBaseVersion());

Long explanation, from
[https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/ce44faa7b1a54aac417fca06200712de629c3bc2ed692813c0a10a73@%3Cusers.nifi.apache.org%3E]
We have seen a strange problem on NiFi 1.4.0 where custom processors could
suddenly not be started, because of incompatibility with custom services:
2018-03-02 13:40:35,490 ERROR [main] o.apache.nifi.controller.FlowController
Unable to start ...[id=5d57d39a-015c-1000-ffff-ffffd654d90b] due to
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Processor ... is not in a valid state due to
... is invalid because ... - 1.4-SNAPSHOT from ... is not compatible with ...
- 1.4-SNAPSHOT ...]
It seems that the root cause was related to:
2018-03-02 13:39:55,086 WARN [main] org.apache.nifi.nar.NarClassLoaders While
loading ...:...:1.5-SNAPSHOT' unable to locate exact NAR dependency
'...:...:1.4-20180302.111133-16'. Only found one possible match
...:....:1.4-SNAPSHOT'. Continuing...
It turned out that our various custom NARs were built on different built
agents.
Maven has the (ugly) behaviour that when a snapshot version is present in the
local repository after local build, the version number will be e.g.
1.4-SNAPSHOT. However if it is downloaded from a remote repository, the version
number includes a timestamp such as 1.4-20180302.111133-16.
So the manifest of the depending NARs contained:
Nar-Dependency-Version: 1.4-20180302.111133-16
while the other NAR file declared:
Nar-Version: 1.4-SNAPSHOT
