Description

This warning pops up first with Maven 3.9.8, previous versions up to 3.9.7 did not report it:

[WARNING] 1 problem was encountered while building the effective model for org.jboss:jboss-dmr:jar:1.3.0.Final

When using the "-X" switch, I see this additional message:

[WARNING] 'dependencyManagement.dependencies.dependency.systemPath' for com.sun:tools:jar refers to a non-existing file C:\Temp\jdk-11.0.23\..\lib\tools.jar. Please verify that you run Maven using a JDK and not just a JRE. @ org.jboss:jboss-dmr:1.3.0.Final

 

I run it with JDK 11, but downloaded the zip file only. There is no "tools.jar", which was removed as part of Java 9.

 

To reproduce: create a project from this archetype:

mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=local -DgroupId=com.acme -DartifactId=example-subsystem -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT -Dmodule=org.test.subsystem -Dpackage=com.acme.example -DarchetypeGroupId=org.wildfly.archetype -DarchetypeArtifactId=wildfly-subsystem -DarchetypeVersion=32.0.0.Final -DinteractiveMode=false

 

Then run this command to see the warning:

mvn dependency:tree -X

 

Actually, I don't know why jboss-dmr:1.3.0 is tested, as the project should reference jboss-dmr:1.7.0.
