Building old Milestones

[reisman234]

I have the problem to build my edc connector again, because of gradle errors.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
org.gradle.api.InvalidUserDataException: Invalid catalog definition:
  - Problem: In version catalog libs, version reference 'okhttp' doesn't exist.
    
    Reason: Dependency 'com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp-dnsoverhttps' references version 'okhttp' which doesn't exist.
    
    Possible solutions:
      1. Declare 'okhttp' in the catalog.
      2. Use one of the following existing versions: 'jackson' or 'jetbrainsAnnotation'.
    
    Please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/7.5.1/userguide/version_catalog_problems.html#undefined_version_reference for more details about this problem.

I have already tried the second possible, but it also ends with an error.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring root project 'connector'.
> java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.gradle.api.GradleException: Failed to create Jar file /home/ralph/.gradle/caches/jars-9/60189fe6fbb58f478e2c4c13d8fd0168/jackson-core-2.15.1.jar.

I'm not an expert in java and the build system with Gradle, but I think it has something to do with the following configuration in the settings.gradle.kts

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url = uri("https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/")
        }
        mavenCentral()
        mavenLocal()
    }
    versionCatalogs {
        create("libs") {
            from("org.eclipse.edc:edc-versions:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT")
            // this is not part of the published EDC Version Catalog, so we'll just "amend" it
            library("dnsOverHttps", "com.squareup.okhttp3", "okhttp-dnsoverhttps").versionRef("okhttp")
        }
    }
}

My connector Version is from Milestone8 and I know there is a newer Milestone, but I don't want to switch right now. I just want to make a short test.

Finally! 🙈

I just updated the from("...") statement to the proper and available version for milestone8. Also, I had to change the JavaVersion
