Hi @ialiraza, it looks like your OS system has locked the /target/ directory for some reason. It looks like you can work-around this situation by editing safbuilder.sh and add -Dmaven.clean.failOnError=false, thus change line 3 of safbuilder.sh to be:

mvn -Dmaven.clean.failOnError=false --quiet -DskipTests=true clean package

Then re-run this.

Hi peterdietz, I have change the Line and re-run but no luck. Giving error ./safbuilder.sh: 9: ./safbuilder.sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

Hi @peterdietz version 1.x is working fine. but I'm facing problem with master version. getting error ./safbuilder.sh: 9: ./safbuilder.sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

please suggest

I'm not sure what the problem is, perhaps your parameter input is causing escaping issues. Such as including a double-quote or something. Can you share what your full ./safbuilder.sh command was, including your options? i.e. ./safbuilder.sh -c /path/to/metadata.csv

Instead of running safbuilder from safbuilder.sh, you can invoke it directly from maven. (If you look at the safbuilder.sh file, it contains these commands.)

1) Compile SAFBuilder

mvn clean package

2) Run SAFBuilder, provide your own input in -c /path/to/metadata.csv

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="safbuilder.BatchProcess" -Dexec.args="-c /Users/peterdietz/Projects/clients/auk/batches/20160316-2015/_sheet.csv"

Hi @ialiraza and @peterdietz : I actually encountered that same Syntax error: "(" unexpected recently when trying to use SAFBuilder on Ubuntu 14.04.

In my case the issue was that my system didn't like the #!/bin/sh at the top of the safbuilder.sh.

To fix it, I just had to change that reference to specifically reference BASH shell. So, I changed the first line to be #!/bin/bash and the script worked.

This same shell script issue is described in more detail at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=499045

I'm not sure if this would occur on other Linux OSes, but it definitely can occur on Ubuntu.

Interesting, thanks for the hint @tdonohue. I've updated this project to use bin/bash, so do a git pull to get the latest commit, and then run it again as normal (./safbuilder.sh).

Thanks @tdonohue and @peterdietz after modifying the #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash in safbuilder.sh line 1 script is working fine.
