Question

I am building my project using Maven. My maven version is apache-maven-3.0.4. I am using Eclipse Luna. When I try to build my project I get the following error

Answer 1

remove this work for me:

<filtering>true</filtering>

I guess it is caused by this filtering bug

Answer 2

This could be a issue in mvn home path in IntellijIdea IDE. For me it worked out when I set the mvn home directory correctly.

Answer 3

With:

        <plugin>
          <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.7</version>
        </plugin>

Was getting the following exception:

...

Then it is gone after adding maven-filtering 1.3:

        <plugin>
          <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.7</version>
          <dependencies>
            <dependency>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.shared</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-filtering</artifactId>
                <version>1.3</version>
            </dependency>
          </dependencies>
        </plugin>

Answer 4

I had the same error because of character '@' in my resources/application.properties. All I did was replacing the '@' for its unicode value: eureka.client.serviceUrl.defaultZone=http://discUser:discPassword\u0040localhost:8082/eureka/ and it worked like charm. I know the '@' is a perfectly valid character in .properties files and the file was in UTF-8 encoding and it makes me question my career till today but it's worth a shot if you delete content of your resource files to see if you can get pass this error.
