Deploying Maven project throws java.util.zip.ZipEx

Question

I am getting the below exception when I run my mvn install. I have even deleted the local repository and ran again getting same exception.

Answer 1

The mainly problem are corrupted jars.

To find the corrupted one, you need to add a Java Exception Breakpoint in the Breakpoints View of Eclipse, or your preferred IDE, select the java.util.zip.ZipException class, and restart Tomcat instance.

When the JVM suspends at ZipException breakpoint you must go to JarFile.getManifestFromReference() in the stack trace, and check attribute name to see the filename.

After that, you should delete the file from file system and then right click your project, select Maven, Update Project, check on Force Update of Snapshots/Releases.

Answer 2

I'd like to give my give my practice.

Use your preferred IDE, take eclipse for for example here:

1. Find an appropriate location within the exception stack
2. Set conditional breakpoint
3. Debug it
4. It will print the corrupted jar before exception

Answer 3

Looks like problem of configuration for maven compiler in your pom file. Default version java source and target is 1.5, even used JDK has higher version.

To fix, add maven compiler plugin configuration section with higher java version, example:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>3.6.1</version>
  <configuration>
    <source>1.6</source>
    <target>1.6</target>
  </configuration>
</plugin>

Answer 4

Build project with option "-e -X" to find out the corrupted jar & remove the jar from local repository.

Answer 5

It is mainly caused by maven.If you are using IDEA, try these following steps:

1.use IDEA to execute "maven clean",then u will see

 [INFO] Scanning for projects... [WARNING]  [WARNING] Some problems were encountered while building the effective model for com.hisen:BookSystem_V0:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT [WARNING] 'build.plugins.plugin.version' for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin is missing. @ line 116, column 15 [WARNING]  [WARNING] It is highly recommended to fix these problems because they threaten the stability of your build.

replace the wrong jar

2.use IDEA to execute "maven compile",then u will see

[INFO] -------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] COMPILATION ERROR : 
[INFO] -------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] Failure executing javac, but could not parse the error:
错误: 读取/Users/qinkai/.m2/repository/ch/qos/logback/logback-classic/1.1.1/logback-classic-1.1.1.jar时出错; invalid LOC header (bad signature)
错误: 读取/Users/qinkai/.m2/repository/ch/qos/logback/logback-core/1.1.1/logback-core-1.1.1.jar时出错; invalid LOC header (bad signature)
2 个错误

solve the wrong jar

then the problem will be solved.

Here is an small detector written in Java , just copy and run :)

import java.io.IOException;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.nio.file.Paths;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.jar.JarFile;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

public class JarValidator {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        Path repositoryPath = Paths.get("C:\\Users\\goxr3plus\\.m2");

        // Check if the main Repository Exists
        if (Files.exists(repositoryPath)) {

            // Create a class instance
            JarValidator jv = new JarValidator();

            List<String> jarReport = new ArrayList<>();
            jarReport.add("Repository to process: " + repositoryPath.toString());

            // Get all the directory files
            List<Path> jarFiles = jv.getFiles(repositoryPath, ".jar");
            jarReport.add("Number of jars to process: " + jarFiles.size());
            jarReport.addAll(jv.openJars(jarFiles, true));

            // Print the report
            jarReport.stream().forEach(System.out::println);

        } else {
            System.out.println("Repository path " + repositoryPath + " does not exist.");
        }
    }

    /**
     * Get all the files from the given directory matching the specified extension
     * 
     * @param filePath      Absolute File Path
     * @param fileExtension File extension
     * @return A list of all the files contained in the directory
     * @throws IOException
     */
    private List<Path> getFiles(Path filePath, String fileExtension) throws IOException {
        return Files.walk(filePath).filter(p -> p.toString().endsWith(fileExtension)).collect(Collectors.toList());
    }

    /**
     * Try to open all the jar files
     * 
     * @param jarFiles
     * @return A List of Messages for Corrupted Jars
     */
    private List<String> openJars(List<Path> jarFiles, boolean showOkayJars) {
        int[] badJars = { 0 };
        List<String> messages = new ArrayList<>();

        // For Each Jar
        jarFiles.forEach(path -> {

            try (JarFile file = new JarFile(path.toFile())) {
                if (showOkayJars)
                    messages.add("OK : " + path.toString());
            } catch (IOException ex) {
                messages.add(path.toAbsolutePath() + " threw exception: " + ex.toString());
                badJars[0]++;
            }
        });

        messages.add("Total bad jars = " + badJars[0]);
        return messages;
    }

}

Output

Repository to process: C:\Users\goxr3plus\.m2
Number of jars to process: 4920
C:\Users\goxr3plus\.m2\repository\bouncycastle\isoparser-1.1.18.jar threw exception: java.util.zip.ZipException: zip END header not found
