BUILD Failure + missing <version> tag for maven-surefire-plugin in pom.xml

[florian-marc]

Hello,
I've been trying to install MOTS on my ubuntu computer. First of all, I'd like to say that it's the first time I'm installing a package on a linux system, and that I don't know much about bash and shell.
I'm running Ubuntu Desktop 18.04, java 10.0.2, javac 10.0.2 and Maven 3.5.2.
As a beginner, I'm struggling to install MOTS. When I run install.sh, I get the following build failure :

Tests run: 46, Failures: 1, Errors: 15, Skipped: 0

Installation of MOTS succeed in the target directory !

After making research on stack overflow, I found out the error might be caused by the fact the version tag for maven-surefire-plugin was missing in the pom.xml file, i.e. :

<plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.19.1</version>
</plugin>

I've also noticed the source and target version for maven-compiler-plugin was version 1.8. I'm running openjdk 10. Is this an issue? Should I try to run openjdk 1.8?

Also, will install.sh install mots.X.Y.Z.jar in the folder?

If there's any information missing, please let me know.
Thank you in advance for your time.

EDIT : After looking into the tests runned by the installer, it looks like the build fails here :

Hi,
excuse for my late answer, didn't see your issue.

I will look into that error. I don't know if jdk 10 is the problem but it might be it since as you can see, you get a ClassNotFoundException from inside the JDK.

I will try with jdk 10 and tell you.
