Hi,

I am building ovirt-engine 3.6.4.1 and failed with NullPointerException. I build for cross compile with commands:


    tmp_repo=/buildarea3/kkang/builds/Mar31-ovrit-engine/bitbake_build/tmp/work/corei7-64-wrs-linux/ovirt-engine/3.6.4.1-r0/repo
    export MAVEN_OPTS="-Dmaven.repo.local=$tmp_repo"

    make    EXTRA_BUILD_FLAGS="-s /buildarea3/kkang/builds/Mar31-ovrit-engine/bitbake_build/tmp/work/corei7-64-wrs-linux/ovirt-engine/3.6.4.1-r0/settings.xml --debug --offline"    -j1     BUILD_GWT=1     BUILD_LOCALES=0         BUILD_UT=1      BUILD_VALIDATION=0      JAVA_DIR=/usr/share/ovirt-engine/java   LOCALSTATE_DIR=/var     MAVENPOM_DIR=/usr/share/ovirt-engine/maven-poms         PREFIX=/usr     SYSCONF_DIR=/etc        PKG_SYSCONF_DIR=/etc/ovirt-engine       PKG_DOC_DIR=/usr/doc/ovirt-engine       PKG_EAR_DIR=/usr/share/ovirt-engine/engine.ear  PKG_PKI_DIR=/etc/pki/ovirt-engine       PKG_JBOSS_MODULES=/usr/share/ovirt-engine/modules       PKG_CACHE_DIR=/var/cache/ovirt-engine   PKG_LOG_DIR=/var/log/ovirt-engine       PKG_TMP_DIR=/var/tmp/ovirt-engine       PKG_STATE_DIR=/var/lib/ovirt-engine     PKG_USER=ovirt  PKG_GROUP=ovirt          all


The error messages show:

My questions are:

1 I know the error occurs in file backend/manager/modules/restapi/interface/definition/src/main/java/org/ovirt/engine/api/rsdl/RsdlManager.java, but how to debug it?

2 When I remove pom and jar files of javax.xml.bind.JAXB in mave repo with offline mode, it still could find the class. Which javax.xml.bind.JAXB is used? I searched the ovirt engine repo but didn't find it either.

Thanks a lot.
