Question

I am trying to build Kylo v_0.9.1 using eclipse with m2e on Windows platform . But the project build fails at kylo-operational-metadata-jpa and throws following error.

Answer 1

The License Maven Plugin is detecting some files that do not have a header, and hence throwing the error. You can fix this by running the below command:

$ mvn license:update-file-header

This should add the header to the missing files. Then you can attempt the build again.

Answer 2

The Maven output indicates you're trying to build Kylo 0.9.2-SNAPSHOT which is an unstable version and not supported by the Kylo team.

To build Kylo 0.9.1 please try these commands:

git checkout v0.9.1.1
mvn clean install -DskipTests
