org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcException: Unsupported Java type: class info.novatec.testit.livingdoc.server.transfer.SpecificationLocation

[evictoria]

Hi,

We would like to use the LivingDoc Maven plugin for our CI build. We have our specifications in Confluence. Running mvn livingdoc:freeze gives us:

I couldn't reproduce this error. The configuration looks fine.
It may be a version mismatch.

Which Versions of Confluence and Confluence-Plugin are you using?

[evictoria]

Confluence 5.8.9 and LivingDoc plugin 1.1.0.

Thanks,
EJ

[benhamidene]

LivingDoc 1.1.+ supports confluence 5.9.3+
Please try upgrading confluence
