thanks for the pointer - but i think my problem is different. in my case it's not a problem of looking up a site descriptor, but resolving dependencies from parent POMs during the javadoc generation that is part of the site build.
i tried the tarball from https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7218?focusedCommentId=17400589&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-17400589 which reverts the change from MGN-7170, and it fixes the problem with getting the right skin for the site, but did not fix the problem with the dependencies in javadoc generation described here initially. should i create a new MNG issue for it? stefan >-----Original Message----- >From: Gary Gregory <garydgreg...@gmail.com> >Sent: Friday, September 3, 2021 2:41 PM >To: Maven Developers List <dev@maven.apache.org> >Subject: Re: Regression in Maven 3.8.2? site/javadoc generation fails > >See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7215 and the short thread >here "Wrong site skin in 3.8.2 vs 3.6.3" > >Gary > >On Fri, Sep 3, 2021, 08:08 Stefan Seifert <Stefan.Seifert@diva- >e.com.invalid> >wrote: > >> i've encountered a problem in numerous of our Maven builds at wcm.io [1] >> which started failing yesterday when GitHub switched to latest Maven >3.8.2 >> release for their images. >> >> an example is described in [2], build log [3], to sum it up: >> - build fails in when generating the maven site during the javadoc step, >> which is unable to find a couple of dependencies which are defined >> correctly (they are defined as "provided" in the <dependency> section of >> one of the parent POMs) >> - the build does not fail when "javadoc:javadoc" is executed directly, >> only as part of the "site" goal >> - everything runs fine with Maven 3.8.1 or 3.6.3 >> >> i'm not sure if this is an issue in either site mojo or javadoc mojo or >> Maven itself. the release notes [4] contain a pointer to a change around >> MNG-6843, but i'm not aware that site or javadoc plugin are spwaning new >> threads. >> >> any ideas about the root cause? >> >> stefan >> >> [1] https://github.com/wcm-io >> [2] https://wcm-io.atlassian.net/browse/WTOOL-78 >> [3] >> https://github.com/wcm-io/wcm-io-wcm-core- >components/runs/3505611228?check_suite_focus=true >> [4] https://maven.apache.org/docs/3.8.2/release-notes.html >> >> --------------------------------------------------------------------- >> To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org >> For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org >> >> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
