exception for NPE org.jfrog.build.extractor.maven.BuildInfoRecorder.addDependenciesToCurrentModule

Question

Im creating a jenkins pipeline and I need to publish buildInfo in artifactory using artifactory plugin, this project has submodules with their own POM inside.

My pipeline is similar to this

pipeline {
    agent any

    stages {
        stage('Checkout') {
            steps {
                git 'https://github.com/example/repo.git'
            }
        }

        stage('Build and Publish') {
            steps {
                script {
                    def server = Artifactory.server('artifactory-server')
                    def rtMaven = Artifactory.newMavenBuild()

                    rtMaven.deployer releaseRepo: 'libs-release-local', snapshotRepo: 'libs-snapshot-local', server: server
                    rtMaven.resolver releaseRepo: 'libs-release', snapshotRepo: 'libs-snapshot', server: server

                    rtMaven.deployer.deployArtifacts = true

                    def buildInfo = rtMaven.run pom: 'pom.xml', goals: 'clean install'

                    // Publish build info to Artifactory
                    server.publishBuildInfo buildInfo
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

I keep getting this exception

    Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.jfrog.build.extractor.maven.BuildInfoRecorder.addDependenciesToCurrentModule(BuildInfoRecorder.java:619)
    at org.jfrog.build.extractor.maven.BuildInfoRecorder.addModuleToBuild(BuildInfoRecorder.java:466)
    at org.jfrog.build.extractor.maven.BuildInfoRecorder.finalizeModule(BuildInfoRecorder.java:389)
    at org.jfrog.build.extractor.maven.BuildInfoRecorder.projectSucceeded(BuildInfoRecorder.java:208)

Any Idea how to avoid this exception or a way to overwrite the NPE in BuildInfoRecorder?

Im using artifactory plugin 3.18.3 and using Jenkins 2.397

Answer 1

I change the maven version to 3.5 and it worked correctly
