I'm running the most recent version of linux mint, and maven 3.0.5.
I opted for option 3 below, which corrected the problem. Thank you! On 02/29/2016 04:53 PM, Jagadish Venkatraman wrote:
The problem seems to be a ClassNotFound error for a class in Apache commons. There appears to be something wrong with your installation of maven. What operating system are you using? With Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit or Fedora 20, please see this https://github.com/mesos/chronos/issues/211 . Also, some users in that community mention that common-lang.jar is missing in the default installation of Apache Maven 3.0.5. Somethings you could try: 1. Download the latest version of maven as a tgz from the repo, and run that binary. ie, ~/apache-maven-3.0.5/bin/mvn package instead of the usual 'mvn package' 2. Delete your maven cache directory. Typically, this is ~/.m2 3. Another workaround is to fix this by using a symlink to the installed version of apache commons so that you include the jar in the lib directory used by maven: cd /usr/share/maven/lib sudo ln -s ../../java/commons-lang.jar . <https://github.com/toudidel> Thanks, Jagadish
