Hi I need some help/guides on how to Fetch and build the PR-4585 for NIFI-7863 so I can build it and test it.
I have created a new VM with Ubuntu 20. Installed Maven, GIT and Java. I used GIT to sync the git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/nifi.git I tried to make a full build, but 2 NAR's failed. I went into the folder for the SMB processors, and build the NAR for that specific folder which works. I copied the new NAR file to my NIFI server for testing the new processor, but I can see it does not include the change made for the PR Kind regards Jens M.
