由于无法构建依赖关系的发行版本，因此在Jenkins中Maven发行版构建失败

Question

Answer 1

Fixed build and this is how. I first switched to maven 3.0.2 in the Jenkins config, since as alluded to by @khmarbaise using maven 2.2.1 was the root of issue.

But then I got wsimport errors, to fix these I removed the encoding property

<project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>

from the parent pom.

I then got a lot of encoding errors, of the type,

error: unmappable character for encoding ANSI_X3.4-1968

so to fix these I added

-Dfile.encoding=UTF8 

to the the to MAVEN OPTS props in the Jenkins job config.

The encoding errors were related to the existence of lots of 'strange' chars in JavaDoc and elsewhere in app code.
