Sadly I realized a while back that it does not build out of the box.  Through much trial and error, I finally got the build to complete.  However, even with that, for some reason I still get several errors.  Apparently they aren't fatal errors.  I have learned that if there is really something wrong, the build won't complete.  However, if the maven build gets to the end, even if there were errors reported, the build works.  I would really like to understand this better.  If the 'errors' I get aren't really critical, seems they should be warnings.  I build and use James. But it doesn't give me a whole load of confidence that there were errors in the build, even though the build doesn't abort on them.

What kind of errors are you getting?  Does the build stop on those errors?

Hi!

I am trying to build JAMES from HEAD using mvn install. It is my expectation 
(from working with other projects) that I should just be able to build “out of 
the box”.

My first question: is my expectation correct? Am I supposed to be able to build 
JAMES without any compilation errors?


If so, is anybody willing to help me understand the problems so I can make PRs 
to fix the build issues?

If not: what is the expected path to be able to use the source code. It is not 
clear to me from the documentation (which only seems to discuss building the 
websites).


Thanks!
