Flavio Junqueira created KAFKA-2797: ---------------------------------------
Summary: Release artifact expects a git repository for the release audit tool (RAT) Key: KAFKA-2797 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2797 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: build Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0 Reporter: Flavio Junqueira Priority: Blocker Fix For: 0.9.0.0 When running gradle on the RC0 for 0.9, we get an error because the build expects to find a git repo here: {noformat} line 68 of build.gradle: def repo = Grgit.open(project.file('.')) {noformat} and we get this error message: {noformat} FAILURE: Build failed with an exception. * Where: Build file 'kafka-0.9.0.0-src/build.gradle' line: 68 * What went wrong: A problem occurred evaluating root project 'kafka-0.9.0.0-src'. > repository not found: kafka-0.9.0.0-src {noformat} The definitions for rat make sense when working on a git branch, but not for the release artifact. One way around this is to disable rat by commenting out the corresponding lines, but that isn't what the README file says. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
