Clean fails with unable to delete file

by Daniel Mutch :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

Hi

I'm getting a lot of clean failures. They always fail because they are unable to delete files under the target directory. It seems either Netbeans or Maven is locking these files.

It's not due to my applications simply because it happens even if I build then clean, i.e. don't run anything in between.

The only way to fix it is to restart Netbeans.

Have you seen this?

thanks
Dan

I'm using linux and never experienced it..

Anuradha, can you confirm if it's a windows thing?

We see this on lots of occasions, normally in the context of running a
web application through tomcat. On about 90% of instances, the problem
goes away when we do a second clean/build (i.e. it fails, so we just try
again). The other 10% of the time we have to shut down *tomcat* and
sometimes netbeans too in order to get it to work.

Because it is so 'random', we have never bothered to file a bug report
(and partly because I suspect it may have something to do with our disk
filer and network infrastructure too).

Later,

Andy

I have seen this when I apache-tomcat is launched after building project.
Do you use Windows? You can see what process is locking target directory -  
eg. using ProcessExplorer.
In linux/unix systems it's possible too...

this netbeans issue seems to be related, am I right?
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=112529

a coworker also pointed out this blog entry on the issue:
http://blogs.sun.com/quinn/entry/tool_for_diagnosing_failed_glassfish
it also includes help on diagnosing the problem.

Hi Milos

Yes this is windows. Also this is a jar project not a war. No web server involved. I think the issue may be related in some way to plugins and extensions.

The problem first started as an intermittent issue. We have the maven pmd and checkstyle plugins in our build process. Occaisionaly the clean would fail to delete the output files they generate. Even if I hadn't looked at them.

Recently however we changed the way one of our sections in the build is used. We now build it and then bring it into the build as an extension. It seems it is the jar associated with this project that it is unable to delete. This is now failing everytime.

I've attached the failure stack trace.

thanks
Dan
