Mvn install error: Execution of exiGrammars failed

[oliviermaridat]

Dear Daniel,

I have an error while running mvn install with the goal "exiGrammars". Something regarding "xjc". Any idea of what can cause this issue?

Thanks a lot!

Here is the complete log:

$ mvn install

Hi,

I haven't encountered similar issues.
Can you tell me which JDK you are using? I read a lot about plugins that are not ready yet for JDK9+.

Maybe it is worthwhile also trying to update the version of jaxb2-maven-plugin to the latest version 2.4.
