I am running Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS AMD 64 The sole purpose of my laptop is to get this build to work. I've literally reformatted my machine just for this project and I'm at my wits end trying to figure this out after googling for 2 days.
I've made sure the POM reflects the correct path to my jdk, and I've experimented the oracle early release jdk, openjdk 9. I made the toolchains.xml file point t the correct java 9 paths. If it doesn't complain about not finding JDK=9, then it fails on this: [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.6.1:compile (default-compile) on project log4j-api-java9: Compilation failure [ERROR] javac: invalid flag: --release [ERROR] Usage: javac <options> <source files> [ERROR] use -help for a list of possible options Other modules in the trunk build fine, but I want them all to build the way they should. Any advice would be greatly apprecaited! Kenneth
