How to fix MojoFailureException while using spring too to build web project

Question

Recently I use spring STS with roo 1.2.0.M1 to build a web project. I set up the jpa and create a entity with some field and create a repository and a service layer for the entity, and then when I perform tests, it gives me the following error:

roo> perform tests

I use the following commands to build the project:

jpa setup --database MYSQL --provider HIBERNATE --databaseName App --hostName localhost --password root --persistenceUnit app --transactionManager appTransactionManager --userName root
entity --class ~.app.domain.DomainObjBaseModel --mappedSuperclass --persistenceUnit app --transactionManager appTransactionManager

// After running the above command, I manually add the following stuff in DomainObjBaseModel, because I don't know how to customise the roo auto generate stuff
    @Id @GeneratedValue(generator="system-uuid")
    @GenericGenerator(name="system-uuid", strategy = "uuid")
    @Column(unique = true, name = "id", nullable = false, length=32)
    private String id;
// After this action, I continue run the following commands.

entity --class ~.app.domain.Application --extends com.crazysoft.web.app.domain.DomainObjBaseModel --persistenceUnit app --transactionManager appTransactionManager --serializable --testAutomatically
repository jpa --interface ~.app.repository.ApplicationRepository --entity ~.app.domain.Application
service --interface ~.app.service.ApplicationService --entity ~.app.domain.Application

This is the configuration of the maven plugin:

<plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.3.2</version>
            <configuration>
                <source>1.6</source>
                <target>1.6</target>
                <encoding>UTF-8</encoding>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>

After I finish the above job, and run perform tests through STS roo shell, and I get the above error.

Is there anyone know that why this exception occurs? Do I do something wrong? And how to fix it?

Please help me!

Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

One or more tests are not working.

Have a look at the files located at: /Users/charlesli/Documents/workspace-spring/WebApplication/target/surefire-reports (usually the bigger files contain a problem)

There you will find the test results, and the test that is broken. The Stacktrace containing in this file will guide you to the problem.

(BTW: you can run the tests in eclipse via JUnit plugin (Package explorer, right click, run as JUnit) too, then you will see the stack trace in the IDE and do not need to search in the files.)

I guess, that the DB connection is not correct. But this is only a guess.

Answer 2

Right click on Project-> Properties--> select project facets--> choose Java correct version which is installed on your system. Then it will works fine.
