Dennis Lundberg commented on MINSTALL-54:
-----------------------------------------
There seems to be a connection between MNG-5307 and MINSTALL-54. Reading
through all the comments in both issues, and experiencing the issues myself,
here are my conclusions.
In MNG-5307 people are running Maven in multi threaded mode. In this issue
people are running Maven without multi threading, but on a build server. Going
through the logs on our build server (Jenkins) made me realize that we are
running several builds of the same code using a @daily schedule. There are
several builds because they use different combinations of Maven and Java.
So there seems to be a problem when several processes are concurrently
modifying the meta data files. Either using multiple threads in Maven or
running multiple jobs on a build server. I don't know if the problem is in the
Install Plugin or Maven Core though.
