Gradle misbehaves when there is a cycle in the chain of parent POMs

obileekenobi · February 6, 2012, 10:56am

Hi

I’m trying to perform a build using a script that works just fine on our build server, but I get the following error when building locally. I’ve tried this on milestone 6 and 7, both give the same error. Does anyone have any ideas?

I notice “Caused by: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: “61D??? ???”” in the log, but there’s no 61D in the pom file that it was checking when the error occurred.

Thanks Lee

Can you give some details about the platform you run gradle? And also the output of gradle -v?

If you could also create a small project that reproduces the problem that would be awesome.

A workaround that might be useful for a time being is to run gradle in quiet mode. From the stack trace I gather that gradle is downloading dependencies and for one of those dependencies the progress logger cannot be notified and hence a failure. Maybe you could nail down this dependency and we could reproduce it.

Hope that helps!

obileekenobi · February 9, 2012, 10:43am

Thanks for the reply

I found the problem. We had a dependency on displaytag, which worked fine when pointing at maven central, but broke when pointing at our local artifactory. I compared the poms and somehow our pom had a parent project defined that referenced itself. It seemed to cause gradle to go into an infinite loop for a while and then crashed.

Not sure there’s anything to be done from a gradle perspective, although a more helpful error message would have been nice!

Peter_Niederwieser · February 9, 2012, 2:48pm

Are you saying that one of the POMs was referencing itself as its parent? I think this should be handled gracefully. I’ve created a JIRA issue.

obileekenobi · February 9, 2012, 8:24pm

Yes exactly, the parent artifact was displaytag-doc, but our incorrect pom had just displaytag. I’d copy and paste in the code but this comment is parsing the xml! if you give me the JIRA I’ll add a comment to it.
