[WARNING] [WARNING] Some problems were encountered while building the effective model for com.bitplan.antlr:com.bitplan.antlr:jar:0.0.1 [WARNING] Reporting configuration should be done in <reporting> section, not in maven-site-plugin <configuration> as reportPlugins parameter. @ line 213, column 20 [WARNING] [WARNING] It is highly recommended to fix these problems because they threaten the stability of your build. [WARNING]
You have run into an issue that is explained in:
You get this error if your maven pom.xml configuration looks like this:
<project>
<build>
<plugins>
...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-site-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0</version>
<configuration>
<!-- configuration of reports to be included in site -->
<reportPlugins>
<plugin>
<!-- report plugin 1 -->
...
</plugin>
<plugin>
<!-- report plugin 2 -->
...
</plugin>
...
<reportPlugins>
</configuration>
</plugin>
<plugins>
</build>
</project>
You first might want to upgrade your plugin version. You can find the current version at search.maven.org
<project>
<build>
<plugins>
...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-site-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.6</version>
<configuration>
<!-- configuration of reports to be included in site -->
<reportPlugins>
<plugin>
<!-- report plugin 1 -->
...
</plugin>
<plugin>
<!-- report plugin 1 -->
...
</plugin>
<reportPlugins>
</configuration>
</plugin>
<plugins>
</build>
</project>
Then you might want to create a new node <reporting></reporting> (it it does not exist yet) directly unter the <project><project> node:
<project>
<reporting>
</reporting>
</project>
Now add a <plugins></plugins> node to the reporting node cut&paste the list of report plugins from the configuration above into it like this:
<project>
<reporting>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<!-- report plugin 1 -->
...
</plugin>
<plugin>
<!-- report plugin 2 -->
...
</plugin>
...
<plugins>
</reporting>
</project>
In the plugins list in the build part only:
