InvocationTargetException: class com.google.errorprone.BaseErrorProneJavaCompiler (in unnamed module @0x16b713dd) cannot access class com.sun.tools.javac.api.BasicJavacTask (in module jdk.compiler) because module jdk.compiler does not export com.sun.tools.javac.api to unnamed module @0x16b713dd -> [Help 1]

Tests with modified mvn jvm.config file were not successfull: --add-exports=com.sun.tools.javac.api=ALL-UNNAMED" in ~/.mvn/jvm.config

Compilation of versions prior 5.2 are working fine.

Possible Solution

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Try to compile current 5.2.0 or 5.2.1 release directly from source
2. wait
3. observe error

Context

To compile internal plugins the graylog repo needs to be compiled localy, as its currently not possible upgrades to 5.2 are stuck.

Your Environment

• Graylog Version: 5.2.x MAVEN_VERSION=3.9.4 JDK_VERSION_AGENT=java-17-openjdk NODEJS_VERSION=16.19.1

@HenryTheSir this works for me. To narrow it down: are you running the mvn command on a fresh checkout of this repository and directly in the top level directory? I'm asking because that's where maven will look for the .mvn/jvm.config file and we ship one which has the required settings.

[HenryTheSir]

Hi @thll ,

thanks for the hint. The Folder and config got lost transfering to our air gapped build system. (Windows 😑).

If the file and config is present the build runs successfully - thanks for your fast answer and support!

best regards
