[jira] [Commented] (MRESOURCES-269) Symlinks cause copying resources to fail

["David Causse (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRESOURCES-269?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17634274#comment-17634274 ] 

David Causse commented on MRESOURCES-269:
-----------------------------------------

I can confirm that there is still an issue with symlinks and the 3.3.0 of the maven-resource-plugin, we still have to downgrade to 3.1.0 for our project to work:

Error is:
{code:java}
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:3.3.0:testResources (default-testResources) on project eventutilities: copying /srv/nomoa_dev/event-platform/wikimedia-event-utilities/eventutilities/src/test/resources/event-schemas/repo4/test/event/latest to /srv/nomoa_dev/event-platform/wikimedia-event-utilities/eventutilities/target/test-classes/event-schemas/repo4/test/event/latest failed with NoSuchFileException: /srv/nomoa_dev/event-platform/wikimedia-event-utilities/eventutilities/target/test-classes/event-schemas/repo4/test/event/latest -> [Help 1]
{code}
Please see [https://github.com/nomoa/wikimedia-event-utilities/blob/main/pom.xml#L256] where switching from 3.1.0 to 3.3.0 will cause the above problem.

> Copying a symlink fails if the target does not exist.  If the symlink is relative the order that the resources are copied matter.  If A points to B but A is copied before B the copying of A will fail with a non-helpful message "Failed to execute goal ... on project xxx: <file path here>".
>  
> This started failing for me on 3.2.0 (and works on 3.1.0) but that might be because somewhere in the dependencies the traversal order changed somehow.
