Thanks! I've looked again at the stack trace, and you're correct - it's Maven that is complaining. Meanwhile I've found a way round the issue for Commons projects: -Pjava-1.5 -DJAVA_1_5_HOME=/home/jenkins/tools/java/latest1.5 [The java-1.5 profile sets the java version for compile and test assuming that JAVA_1_5_HOME is set appropriatel] So long as 1.5 is always at that location we should be good. > > BR > Andreas Lehmkühler
