Unable to parse configuration report for parameter timestamp

[mmoayyed]

I have

                <plugin>
                    <groupId>org.eluder.coveralls</groupId>
                    <artifactId>coveralls-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                    <version>${coveralls-maven-plugin.version}</version>
                </plugin>
                <plugin>
                    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                    <artifactId>cobertura-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                    <version>${cobertura-maven-plugin.version}</version>
                    <configuration>
                        <format>xml</format>
                        <maxmem>256m</maxmem>
                        <!-- aggregated reports for multi-module projects -->
                        <aggregate>true</aggregate>
                    </configuration>
                </plugin>

where the versions are 3.1.0 and 2.7.

I get:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.eluder.coveralls:coveralls-maven-plugin:3.1.0:report (default-cli) on project cas-server: Unable to parse configuration of mojo org.eluder.coveralls:coveralls-maven-plugin:3.1.0:report for parameter timestamp: Cannot convert 'Sun, 16 Aug 2015 01:19:22 -0700' to Date -> [Help 1]

The plugin records the build job timestamp from timestamp property resolved by your POM. It seems that you use the same property for some other purpose with incompatible format.

    /**
     * Build timestamp. Must be in 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ssa' format.
     */
    @Parameter(property = "timestamp", defaultValue = "${timestamp}")

At the moment there is no way to disable the timestamp resolution. This might actually be a problem if you need the timestamp in some other format elshwhere. The following should do the trick for your pom.xml, and hopefully not break other things.

    <maven.build.timestamp.format>yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ssa</maven.build.timestamp.format>
    <timestamp>${maven.build.timestamp}</timestamp>

Additional timestampFormat property can be used to define any timestamp format. maven.build.timestamp.format will be used as a default.

Please @trautonen, in pom.xml, where do I have to add these lines? I tried putting them in but does not seem to work.

<maven.build.timestamp.format>yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ssa</maven.build.timestamp.format>
<timestamp>${maven.build.timestamp}</timestamp>

Edit: problem solved removing from the pom.xml the plugin buildnumber-maven-plugin
